I love The Broken Brain Podcast! Dwight does a fantastic job making psychotherapy accessible and informative. Every time I tune into an episode, I learn something new and feel uplifted.

This podcast explores the topic of psychology through a variety of lenses, focusing in on different aspects of mental health, trauma, stigma, and more. Everything from anxiety to coping with loss to drug addiction. Not only is it rare to find a podcast exclusively dedicated to psychology and psychotherapy (though I’m quite sure there are plenty out there), but I find this show has the remarkable feature of being accessible to both laypeople and professionals alike.

Mental health is something that everybody needs to address and get a handle on. Great podcast!

Had a great time listening in!

Really enjoying this podcast so far. Appreciative of the value it brings to my day! Looking forward to what comes next

As someone with a M.S. in Psychology I am always looking for podcasts related to the topic. The Broken Brain is incredibly interesting and I always look forward to learning more about my passion

This show is so helpful and insightful! It’s helpful because topics include relatable experiences but with a psychotherapist’s commentary. Dwight’s on air personality is magnetic and he approaches each interview as a learning opportunity with humor even after more than 20 years of experience in mental health. How refreshing! My personal favorite episode is Secondhand Drinking with Lisa Fredricksen. I highly recommend this show. Hit subscribe!

Mental health is a huge topic and very much so needed by everyone.

I love the transparency of the show. It’s not from a place of I know everything but instead, I’m interested in learning. Great stuff!

I could tell the host truly cares about people! There is so much valuable information in these episodes! Very encouraging as well ! 👌🏼

Good podcast so far but you mentioned using Zoom in your counseling practice. There must be so many ethical issues using that platform. Please consider using one that is HIPPA approved.

Hosts use ableist language quite often, sometimes mocking neurodivergent people. Insensitive and unprofessional. Lots of unnecessary dialogue and technical issues in audio production. Yikes!

The non anxiety epsidoe had me thinking about the day I quit my job and started my own business. I felt a million times better but I have new goals and dreams that still stress me out becuase I want to succeed today. I know I am heading in the right direction and I constantly remind myself that it takes time. Overall, I love the tone of the show and it makes me feel like I am just a normal person like everyone else in this big crazy world. Thanks Dwight for sharing the good conversation like always :)

I stumbled across the 10 minutes on suicide and really felt that Dwight really had some real good insight. I have had times in my life when others have reached out to be about their thoughts about death and I feel after hear him explain I feel more confident about the way I handled it

Dwight takes his time and care to everyday social science issues and makes it relatable to all. It is as if one of my friends decided to have easygoing conversations with the topic of the day. Plus - I love the fact it is not vulgar. It is enjoyable for everyone!

It's like an big wet open mouth kiss for your mental heath

It's not for everyone, but it's a good show. Some people are a little over sensitive in some of these reviews, so just give it a try.

I am so impressed with this show. Great sense of humor while also showing empathy for those in need of behavioral health treatment.

As someone who is neurodiverse and dedicated to breaking down stigma surrounding mental health diversity, I appreciate the array of unique perspectives on the show.

Anyone can find something to relate to with this podcast! Fun to listen to and very informing!

The humor in this show adds in a good mix. Keep up the good work!

While I will admit to picking and choosing some of the more fun episodes, especially the movie related ones, Dwight and company are a great group to listen to and bring nice perspectives on psychology in general, enough that a relative lay person understands and enjoys.

And unprofessional.

As a mental health practitioner, this podcast addresses a diverse issues with experts from many fields. I have found it to be practical and insightful. It also gets me thinking about some of the issues practitioners face in a new light. The information is presented in a simple way, so it also beneficial for those just interested in mental health and who are not necessarily professionals in the field. I have even had my teenage son listen, and he quite enjoyed it and learned something!

Love this podcast - you are doing a great job, Dwight! Our field needs humor and information in equal measure and you bring it! Keep it up - we are cheering you on! Clay

Broken Brain is a fantastic podcast and Dwight is a great host. Always fun to listen to someone discuss their passion and give a new insight on psychology in general.

As somebody who works in the field and is a comedy nerd this show is perfect. I learn a ton and have some laughs. Dwight is a great host this show is a must listen.

As joy mongers, we try to seek joy in everything we do, but we also understand that it’s difficult and impossible at times. Sometimes our brains need some guidance. That’s where The Broken Brain comes in. Dwight, the host, is thoughtful, smart, and knowledgeable about the nuances of the brain, why we act certain ways, and you never come away from listening without something tangible to think about and apply to your own life. Truly special show! - Jess and Non, Joy Sandwich Podcast

The Broken Brain is a great concept, and there's a perfect mix of actual information and humor. You will not be disappointed in subscribing to this!

Lol, this show is great! Subscribe today and I promise you won't regret it! Fun and informative! Scott - Lost At Home Podcast

Great insights, and I would have to say that I truly believe in this podcast! The Brain is truly incredible!! Way to go Dwight!

Lots of good info mixed with humor.

What a find! How did I get by without this fun and informative banter from highly educated and experienced mental health care professionals. I must say it has raised my own self-regard, especially writing this review. ---Dwight Hurst Creator & Host of The Broken Brain

A good mix of humor and a serious look at mental health. They keep it simple enough that I understood the various issues without feeling like they are talking down to someone who isn’t a mental health professional.
