Bringing the Soul & the Paranormal into Psychology and the Relationship of Leading Psychologists to Mediums & Clairvoyance with Dr. Karen Herrick
11 Feb 2023
In this episode, I have the great pleasure to talk with therapist and author Dr. Karen Herrick about her fascinating book “The Psychology of the Soul and the Paranormal.” Karen explains how various major thinkers, experts, and psychologists have been interested in and even influenced by spiritual and paranormal experiences. We learn how William James, the founder of American psychology, used and believed in mediums and that Carl Gustav Jung’s mother was a psychic, and that he himself was clairvoyant. Moreover, we talk about the benefits of communicating with deceased loved ones to help deal with grief and about how spirituality has become more common and accepted not only amongst the general population but also embraced and promoted by the mental health fields of psychology and psychiatry. Hopefully, these fascinating and intriguing phenomena will be studied, researched, and investigated with more openness and without bias and preconceived notions.
