After the closure of the Tavistock’s Gender Identity Service, many people have been left wondering how such institutional medical abuse of children could possibly have happened, and be allowed to happen for so long. How could some of the extremes of gender ideology and critical race theory be adopted by professionals who are supposed to be able to discern sanity from madness? ‘How Psychology Went Mad’ — the 12th episode in the New Culture Forum’s acclaimed #NCFHeresies documentary series — looks at the impact of ideology on psychotherapy, psychology, and psychiatry. It charts the development of the ‘talking cure’ and how this has become corrupted by far-left dogma and identity politics. In an era of increased censorship, political correctness, and infringements of freedom of speech, how can a profession based on being able to talk freely survive? In this documentary, Amy Gallagher, describes her own experience of authoritarian ideology interfering with her own psychotherapy training and interviews those who have also spoken up about similar concerns.
