Treating Personality Disorders Ft. Dr. Greg Lester
04/20/23 • 69 min
Ever had to argue with a Narcissist and not really get anywhere? Sounds like you got caught up in the drama triangle. Thankfully, we have Dr. Greg Lester with us this week to explain how he works with the personality-disordered population, and to give us a better understanding of what is behind their motivations to stir up drama.
Dr. Greg Lester is the leading trainer on all things personality disorders, having read everything there is on the subject, Greg is able to pass this along to professionals and the family members of these patients to help work towards a more effective treatment. It's a fascinating look into this still newly understood disorder and a great conversation with Greg on how we can truly consider and help these patients.

Working with Adolescents and Parenting Techniques Ft. Dr. Beth Plachetka
Dr. Beth Plachetka usually only uses her title on Christmas cards, but that doesn't make her any less qualified to be on our show! Beth is a former educator and school social worker, now working out of her private practice, Safe Harbor Counseling in Sugar Grove. Mother to three and grandmother to nine, Beth followed the path to end up doing exactly what she needed to.
In this episode, we discuss all methods of parenting and how to safely practice consequences. Ryan gets to reflect on much of his upbringing and we hopefully share a bit of wisdom between all of the fond memories. We hope you enjoy this one and share your own reflections on what adolescence was like for you!
