She’s has published several books that are available on amazon. They’re great. I highly recommend them. It’s no substitute for hearing it straight from the lovely woman herself but certainly worth buying.
How much wisdom can be simply and unpretentiously crammed into a tiny space of time? I need to relisten because there was so much in here, so directly and cleanly stated. PLEASE more interviews with Mother Katherine.
Fascinating .... Her approach from the holistic side is inspiring. Her empathy a grandeur. And the usage of the vast knowledge of the Elders is intriguing. Thus sister has done her homework. Perhaps the best clip yet good Dr. I learned so much ... God Bless her, her work, and you for bringing us a glimpse into a truly fascinating subject. ☦️🙏☦️
Nun Katherine Weston ... I passed it on to my good friend Dr. Torres who is also in your field in Victoria, Texas. He too is a Christian. He found it fascinating as well and spot on in context. He is not Orthodox so the portion talking of the desert fathers truly intrigued him. He said he had much research to do. So thank you from him for inspiration to dig deeper, ( His Words) ... I look forward to hearing, and learning more. God Bless you sister. ☦️🙏☦️
I have PTSD and am returning to the orthodox church, after leaving for a few years. This video just made things in my brain click. Thank you so much. I had forgotten about Logismoi.
What a blessing to hear this wisdom in such an accessible way. I have on my 'to read' list "Carl Jung and Maximus the Confessor on Psychic development" because I find this connection between the wisdom of the faith and psychology fascinating, but also because of my job as a social worker. We are so blessed to have people like Mother Katherine to help highlight those connections.
@@nunkatherineweston Comprehensive, that's what it is. You truly help the whole person, taking even nutrition into account. I am grateful to have found you through Protecting Veil. Pray for me and my family. God bless you.
There are some people that I could just listen to for a long time, Mother Weston isone of them. What a blessing that she gave you this interview and you passed it on to us!
Thank you for this video. So much wisdom! I'm going to look up and buy Mother Catherine Weston's books. Love being an Orthodox Christian - Glory to God!💓☦️
Mother Katherine’s explanation of the effect of trauma is very helpful. Thank you for posting this interview with Mother Katherine. Will you be releasing more interviews with Mother Katherine on this topic?
Thanks for writing, Shelley Katherine. Here are links for two of my books. www.amazon.com/Illumining-Shame-Forgiveness-Transformative-Wisdom/dp/0998390631/ and www.amazon.com/Race-Identity-Reconciliation-Second-Transformative/dp/0998390623/
Believe it or not Mother Katherine Weston here in the Greek Archdiocese of Australia in Melbourne where I'm A Member of and I seriously finding it hard to find an Orthodox confessor with this pandemic to go and confess my sins to!!!
God bless you. In unusual situations (eg lockdowns) one can confess over the telephone - not ideal but 'better than nothing '. Lord Jesus Christ Son of God have mercy on me a sinner 💖🙏
I would like to see more of a standard interview format, with the back and forth of question and answer. I realize there are reasons to do it the way you do, and this certainly has value, so this isn’t a criticism. Just telling what would be even better from my point of view.
I've been grappling with the ambiguity in psychotherapy which understands (correctly!) that we are fallen creatures and therefore both our souls and bodies are damaged. But then there is also a reference to the "mind" or "psyche". Is this some other 'thing' or is it part of the soul or part of our body? I always thought that "psyche" MEANS "soul" in Greek. Does anyone else out there think the vocabulary of Christian psychotherapy is a bit muddled? Any thoughts?

@@nunkatherineweston Would it be able to create a video about cluster B personality disorders focussing on the dark triad narcissists, psychopaths and the like. Are they demon possessed or influenced? How to deal with these people if they are your family or a spouse since they are capable of inflicting major damage even killing someone. I have never been able to get a straight answer from Orthodox clergy about this. These conditions are much more common then we are led to believe and are the cause of so many psychological disorders especially if a parent is a narcissist or a psychopath

This has given me much to think about. To separate the feeling from the memory of all the abuse. I will talk to God about it. 🌺
Very grateful!
It would be a blessing to hear more from dear Mother Katherine, especially about Orthodoxy and therapy. Thank you for posting.
Thank you, Una. God bless you.

Chris Hawthorne so I want you to read this and give me the readers digest version.
Oh, how I wish there were more therapists who had Sister's approach. Brilliant.
I'm sure there must be a number scattered around. I'm glad you found my approach hopeful.

What a beautiful, excellent combination, Nun & Councelor
I love the way you break things down. Brilliant.. Wish I could meet with you!! Im sure you're an excellent psychotherapist. 🙏💖
Wish I could talk to you sister about the very thing you mentioned trauma and the automobile. It would be wonderful to get help in this area
EMDR Therapy is very good for this type of issue. The EMDRIA website allows anyone to find a qualified therapist in their area. www.emdria.org/
This is a little late but I hope youre doing well. Wishing you the best. 🙏💖

A great interview, thank you. Are there any books you'd recommend that discuss this approach further?
I really want to meet her.
I got confused.. Can "psycho" be healed with spiritual guidance without medicine ?
