Staring at the Sun with Dr. Irvin Yalom

March 5, 2008
Host: Armand DiMele Guests: Dr. Irvin Yalom

Psychiatrist and author Dr. Irvin Yalom joins Armand DiMele to argue that confronting death directly, rather than avoiding it, is essential to living fully. They discuss erotic transference, the therapist’s need for ongoing personal therapy, and Yalom’s existential view that therapist and patient are fellow travelers facing the same mortality.
