Adam Phillips interview [AUDIO]

I interviewed Adam Phillips, author and psychoanalyst. This is the audio file of the interview. We cover why he doesn’t use email, what a former child psychotherapist sees in his own children, and of course, his books. He tells me why Freud did “pretty well, considering” (the designer of psychoanalysis never underwent analysis himself) and why he rejects theory in favour of “more sentences, we need more sentences”.

The transcript will follow.

  1. Dear Jennifer,

    Great interview with Adam. I was wondering if you could make it available as an mp3 file so I can listen to it on my iPod. Thanks.
