Episode 4: James Van Cuylenburg
Ask Dr James Van Cuylenburg if he’d rather be a rock star or clinical psychologist and he simply can’t choose between his two loves. James spends his days helping others navigate life, and by night moonlighting on the stage as the great Billy Joel, among other music legends, performing across Victoria. While James primarily works with adults, couples and families in his day job, his fascination with how we are shaped as children remains a big focus, especially tapping into the child self and embracing the joy of childhood and the importance of imagination, play and fun. But he’s candid about what he sees as the biggest challenge for humans today, and that’s the growing need for self-acceptance and self-compassion, and his wish and goal to teach as many people as possible to give a generous read of themselves as they do for others.
