Gets me thinking

I love this podcast. So easy to listen to with such great information. Each time I listen, it gets me thinking... it expands my knowledge and helps me open my mind to new ideas that deeply intrigue me.

Breath of Fresh Air

The Science of Psychotherapy (SoP) podcasts are a fun and entertaining way to learn about psychotherapy and neuroscience, as well as about the people who explore this new world. Matthew and Richard, the hosts for each show, are both relaxed and probing. They help the guests to open up their topic and manage to create an illuminating conversation each week. It is clear that they enjoy producing these segments and provide us the very best and most timely information. This podcast has become my “look forward to” each week.

Great & Easy Learning

This podcast is a regular provider of helpful information in an easy listening format. Integrating neuroscience into the practice of psychotherapy is an exciting new task and opens fresh avenues for working with clients. The interviewers provide a warm and welcoming context and explore topics of interest to counseling & psychotherapy practitioners. It has become an important addition to my ongoing learning.

An Outstanding Podcast!

If you’re a therapist interested in the integration of neuroscience and psychotherapy, this is a must have! I look forward to every podcast & magazine they produce. Their efforts to create a like-minded community is admirable, valuable & greatly appreciated!

Bruce Ecker Part 1

I've read his book on memory reconsolidation, it was great to hear him explain it. Matt and Richard asked good questions, too.
