This week on the show Ang is joined by Nadine Pittam, accredited psychotherapist and host of the “This Won’t Fix You”. Nadine specialises in working with clients who experience intense feelings of love and are prone to obsessions, or more commonly referred to as ‘love addicts’.  The majority of Nadine’s work centres around helping people come to terms with the loss of a loved one, the very definition of divorce. In this interview with Ang, Nadine addresses what physiotherapy actually is, its benefits and shares some fascinating insights on how we feel about our feelings.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS 

●      A lot of people have predetermined ideas of what psychotherapy entails, mainly based on its portrait in the movies. However, Nadine describes what therapy really entails and the benefits that come from it.

●      Trauma can present itself in multiple ways and, sometimes, they are not always obvious. Nadine and Ang discuss some of the ways trauma can manifest and why it is important to address it before it takes hold.

●      After experiencing a divorce it is very common to suddenly feel incomplete, to feel that our ‘other half’ has disappeared. Nadine explains the importance of acknowledging these feelings and the steps you can take to process these thoughts. 

●      Those people that do enter into therapy use it as a tool to get past the impending crisis they are facing. However, as Nadine explains, those that enter into therapy for the long haul have an opportunity to transform their lives in ways they never thought possible.

 

 

BEST MOMENTS

“Whoever you are or whatever you’ve done, your behaviour makes sense.”

“Therapy isn’t talking about your feelings, it’s talking about how you feel about your feelings.”

“If you keep something in the dark for long enough, it will develop.”
