EP. 172 — Unpacking Pop Psychology with Seerut K. Chawla

The Trenches founder & UK based psychotherapist Seerut K. Chawla joins Jameela this week to discuss mental health within the social media space, what it does to our brains, and why we gravitate towards pop psych trends and Instatherapy. They dig into how our modern mental health labels and terminology are collapsing, with Seerut introducing us to Concept Creep. This is an open and frank conversation about mental wellness with references to sexual violence.
