Hey everyone, I am a MA in counseling student getting my degree to become a licensed clinical mental health counselor with an emphasis in marriage, family, and child counseling. I love learning about psychology and therapy concepts and I have a love of anime. Since watching Pokemon and Dragonballz at the tender age of 7, I fell in love with the animation, stories, and fights, on this channel I bring my two loves together to talk about different anime characters from a clinical perspective and analyze their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.
It's Football season! I thought It'd be a good time to talk about one of my favorite sports animes out there, Eyeshield 21.

The Psychology of Gon and Killua
The dynamic between Gon and Killua is truly interesting. What makes them want to be friends? What makes any of us want to be friends with other people? In this episode, Sabrina and I talk about Gon and Killua's childhood and the dichotomies Togashi presents in Gon and Killua. They are so very similar and opposites at the same time. We also talk about the power of friendship. Everyone who grew up watching Pokemon or Yugioh understands the power of friendship!

Psychology of Death Note part 2: Misa Amane & Teru Mikami
In this episode I discuss my conceptualization of two very interesting characters in the series; Misa Amane and Teru Mikami. These two are Kira worshippers and are willing to do everything Light tells them. I go into detail about their history and backgrounds as well as ideas of celebrity worship syndrome (CWS) Stan culture and the idea of parasocial relationships and how all these things tie into their personalities and behaviors. I also talk about some pretty scary stories involving real life examples of people who probably had CWS. Do you think these characters have CWS?
