										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you get the opportunity to see Sky Art&#8217;s &#8220;<strong>Psychobitches</strong>&#8221; during a repeat, take it!</p>
<p>Originally a one-off 30-minute episode in 2012, the producers expanded it in 2013 with a series of 5 x 30 minute episodes.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s not currently available on DVD &#8211; but we can hope it will be soon.</p>
<p>If YouTube doesn&#8217;t remove it, here&#8217;s an example: <strong>Alalia Freud</strong> (Sigmund&#8217;s mother) played with a suitably innocent-yet-creepy style by <a title="Selina Griffiths" href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0341753/" target="_blank">Selina Griffiths</a>.  </p>
<p>Maybe this explains a lot&#8230;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[Working with feelings is something that can be central to many counselling &#038; psychotherapies - but the question 'how do you feel' can be confusing for many to answer.  This cartoon (author unknown) was found on Facebook and is published here to help those who find feelings difficult to name.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I thought this cartoon might be helpful for those whom find the question &#8220;How are you feeling today?&#8221; perplexing to answer. Not everyone can identify or name their feelings.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[Siri for iPhone 4S - not a qualified couple therapist...]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Siri &#8211; the voice-interactive iPhone application.</h2>
<p>Many of you will have seen the latest iPhone 4S advertisements.  People speak into the phone, and Siri makes an intelligent-sounding reply.  Siri can also amend your calendar, make a call, and send messages on your behalf.  Siri is very helpful &#8211; but I suspect that as a couple counsellor Siri would not have the appropriate skills to help a couple in conflict&#8230;</p>
<p><object id="ch6648229" width="600" height="338" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://5.static.collegehumor.cvcdn.com/moogaloop/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=6648229&amp;use_node_id=true&amp;fullscreen=1" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><embed id="ch6648229" width="600" height="338" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://5.static.collegehumor.cvcdn.com/moogaloop/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=6648229&amp;use_node_id=true&amp;fullscreen=1" allowfullscreen="true" wmode="transparent" allowScriptAccess="always" allowscriptaccess="always" /></object></p>

</div>
<p>Just for clarification &#8211; this is humour &#8211; but whilst the couple is played by actors, and the situation is meant as comedy, many couples may hear a tinge of reality in the argument.  Take heart &#8211; this is meant as being light-hearted &#8211; but if you and your partner are in a conflicting relationship and you both would like some serious help, <a title="Contact me for counselling" href="/contact/">contact Dean Richardson</a> for assistance.</p>
