Developing Meaning

By: Dirk Winter
  • Summary

  • A podcast about healing trauma and finding meaning.


    Have you ever wondered what your therapist has figured out about life's big questions?


    Join psychiatrist Dr. Dirk Winter as he speaks with colleagues, therapists, and other healers about what they have learned from their clinical work about how to heal trauma and build more meaning and purpose into our lives.


    Developing Meaning is NOT CLINICAL ADVICE and is NOT AFFILIATED WITH ANY INSTITUTIONS. It is intended to play with ideas that are emerging, fringe, and outside of the mainstream in order to discover the meaning of life.
