    Today, a family's story of oppositional defiant disorder and giving Parent-Child Interaction Therapy a go. Can coaching parents through one-way mirrors and ear pieces help build stronger relationships? And why is PCIT so effective for kids with ODD?

  • How stressed have you been lately? Are you heading towards burn out?

    Time and time again, Dr Rangan Chatterjee has seen chronic stress wreak havoc on his patients' lives — contributing to autoimmune disorders, gut problems, low libido and more.

    But the most devastating blow struck his own family, when his father's punishing work schedule forced him to medically retire in his 50s. It’s an experience that led Rangan to rethink his own work and approach to medicine.

    Today, Dr Chatterjee, a GP and host of a mega popular wellbeing podcast, shares his story, as well as strategies for better managing stress in your own life.

    This episode first aired in June 2025.

  • Languages are so much more than words and sounds — they encode culture and shape our identity. So how do you connect to your culture, if language is lost?

    While many Indigenous languages have already been lost, and more are at risk of extinction, in Australia, people are increasingly trying to revitalise certain Indigenous languages.

    ABC Radio National presenter and Gamilaraay woman Rudi Bremer is on her own journey of reconnecting with her mother tongue, and it's bringing up a mixed bag of feelings — from a profound sense of loss, to deep contentment and belonging.

  • What is it that drives a person to mass murder?

    It's a question forensic psychiatrist Professor Paul Mullen has made a life's study of.

    While these devastating events can at times appear random — he says that taken together, from Port Arthur to Dunblane to Texas — patterns emerge that tell us about the motivations of lone mass killers.

    It's often to do with isolation, vengeance and fame. Which is why a growing number of people, including Paul, are pushing never to name the perpetrators of mass killings.

    Today on All in the Mind: insights into denying mass killers the glory they seek and preventing future massacres.

    Please note, this episode covers some heavy topics including massacres and suicide. Please take care while listening.

  • Should you consider estrangement from an emotionally immature parent? How do you process the grief of realising your more stable parent … might have been a passive enabler? And what should you do if you realise you are an emotionally immature parent?

    This week, clinical psychologist and author Lindsay Gibson is answering your questions about emotionally immature parents. Each family is different, but she shares some key tips and lessons that can help you navigate difficult relationships.

  • If you've never had good parenting modelled to you, how do you raise emotionally mature kids?

    Clinical psychologist Dr Lindsay Gibson has thoughts. You might remember Lindsay from our extremely popular 2021 episode titled 'The damage done by emotionally immature parents (and how to heal)'. This week, she's back on All in the Mind, talking about the next generation.

    From the difference between consequences and punishment, to the questionable/cruel videos some parents post on social media, Lindsay has insights, tips and 'absolutes' — her rules on what to definitely not do, in order to raise emotionally mature kids.

    Also, keep an eye out for next week's mailbag episode, where we ask Lindsay your questions!

  • Rebecca figured out a brilliant way to catch her partner in a lie. It led to a career in forensic psychology…

    These days, Rebecca studies lie detection, and it turns out, people generally overestimate their ability to tell fact from fiction. All the classic clues — body language, eye contact, acting nervous … they don't really hold up when put to the test.

    In our fourth and final part of our special series, Forensic, we're discovering the truth about lie detection. Are there any giveaways that someone is lying to us? Can lying show up on a brain scan?

  • If you saw a crime, how clearly would you remember it? What about if you were questioned years… even decades later?

    Eyewitness testimony is an important part of the justice system, so how much do we know about our ability to recall details?

    In part three of our four-part series, Forensic, we take a deeper look at eyewitness memory. Because it's not just about what we can or can't recall, there's also the risk that we may not even recognise a crime as it's happening. It turns out we're sometimes less observant than we think, because of a phenomenon called inattentional blindness.

  • Imagine police are interrogating you over a crime you didn't commit.

    If you're innocent, you're safe, right? Wrong.

    Sometimes, being innocent can make you more likely to confess. How is that possible?

    In part two of our four-part series, Forensic, we learn about the police interviewing techniques that make false confessions more likely, and the bizarre cases in which people come to believe they really, truly did commit a crime – despite being innocent.

  • Criminal profiling promises a lot — being able to piece together a picture of a suspect through clues, intuition and psychology sounds great. But how reliable is it?

    In our first episode of Forensic, a four-part series unpacking the psychological tools used to solve crimes, we examine the history of criminal profiling. How it got popular in the 1950s after bombings in New York City, its shortcomings when scrutinised by researchers, and the techniques it is built on that police deploy today (but with a lot more data).

  • Would you want to live forever? The rich and powerful certainly do.

    There are numerous examples throughout history of people going to extreme lengths in search of immortality. These days, it's Silicon Valley tech bros, testing out everything from blood transfusions to merging our brains with the cloud.

    Why are they/we so obsessed with dodging death? What is it about extreme wealth that makes people dream of defying biology?

    Today, tech journalist and social psychologist Aleks Krotoski takes us into the world of the ‘immortalists’: what they think the future of humanity might look like, and whether the rest of us want to come along for the ride.

  • Politics, war, abortion, gun control — why do some topics make us so outraged?

    One theory is that our preoccupation with preventing harm is to blame.

    So today, we examine how humans developed morality, why we differ in what we consider right and wrong, and how that drives us to moral outrage.

    And after all of that, we'll find out how to have better conversations with people you disagree with (even if you're feeling outraged).

  • This week we're talking about something intimate… and sometimes taboo: masturbation.

    From self-love, to disordered behaviour and back again, we explore how our perceptions of masturbation have changed over the course of history and why it's still linked to shame and confusion for some.

    Also, why do humans (and other animals) masturbate in the first place?
