CTA Podcast
Critical Therapy Antidote was established in 2020 as a response to the rapid, uncontested and systemic encroachment of Critical Social Justice (CSJ) on the psychotherapy field. The purpose of its establishment was to provide a platform where those concerned about this ideological takeover can challenge these ideas in articles, share resources and find a network of likeminded professionals and laypersons. In March 2023, the CTA Podcast was launched by clinical psychologist, Jaco van Zyl, and marriage and family therapist, Christine Sefein-Wolk. The CTA Podcast aims to critically analyse the tenets of CSJ, to provide diverse alternatives to this ideology, and to reestablish the healing ethos of psychotherapy. Welcome to the CTA Podcast. We hope it will both stimulate and challenge you.

Psychological abuse in Woke counselling training | with Suzannah Alexander
Suzannah Alexander is a volunteer at the Foundation Against Intolerance and Racism (FAIR). In this episode Suzannah recounts her experiences as a student at the University of Tennessee's Clinical Mental Health Counsellor programme. She relates how she was treated for her Buddhist worldview and for being white. We discuss the psychological effects such deliberate misrecognition (gaslighting) had on her, and what the literature teaches us on this. We go into detail discussion the phenomenon of projection, projective identification and the envious processes underneath such dynamics. We conclude our discussion by appreciating the need for parallel structures and institutions that are committed to the healing ethos of psychology and psychotherapy.
