Pt. 4. Todd Hayen, Ph.D. on the State of Psychotherapy

Charlie Kirk Assassination with Fmr Fed Prosecutor Hank Kopel

May the reasonable sow seeds of cohesion in this society. Rest in peace, Charlie Kirk.  Charlie's assassination marks a flashpoint in American culture. I am talking today with former federal prosecutor and author Hank Kopel. I needed to speak with someone I trusted to be both descent and analytical. There is nobody better than Hank at a time like this. https://www.amazon.com/stores/Henry-Kopel/author/B095XRHY77?ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true&ccs_id=e5f02ebe-87ce-459f-98ed-7c072ae7d16f [https://www.amazon.com/stores/Henry-Kopel/author/B095XRHY77?ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true&ccs_id=e5f02ebe-87ce-459f-98ed-7c072ae7d16f]   https://blogs.timesofisrael.com/author/henry-kopel/ [https://blogs.timesofisrael.com/author/henry-kopel/]
