"I have loved the Lord of the Rings universe since I first watched the cartoon version of the Hobbit as a child," he said. "This movie in particular is among my favorites ever because of how powerful it is and how much it speaks to the ability to start growing beyond everything that you've known" He added: "It's just so good and these movies were done with so much love for the material that you feel it"
Welcome back to the Tolkien-verse! We are diving back into the Lord of the Rings trilogy with The Two Towers. We are joined by Justine Mastin, therapist and author of Starship Therapise and The Grieving Therapist. We touch upon a variety of themes: grief and loss, ecological grief, individuation, Jung. We also discuss Internal Family Systems and how that is demonstrated via Gollum/Smeagol.
