Welcome to Complex, the podcast that cuts a clear path through all the information and misinformation that’s out there about our mental health. Because let’s face it – there’s so much of it! And a lot of it makes us worry – maybe I’ve got ADHD! Perhaps I’ve got empathy overload? Is my partner a narcissist? Kimberley Wilson is a chartered psychologist and she’s on a mission to help you decide when to be concerned about what your mind is doing - and when not to be. Together with her expert guests – psychologists, psychiatrists and psychotherapists - she shares some valuable tips for how you can manage your mental health better.
With the help of listeners’ stories, Kimberley delves into different topics from helping you to work out whether you’re a people-pleaser and what you can do about it; to understanding what attachment theory is and how it affects your relationship; to unpicking social anxiety and how best to grapple with it.
