How to Deal with a Sociopath

Being Well with Forrest Hanson and Dr. Rick Hanson - A podcast by Rick Hanson, Ph.D., Forrest Hanson - Mondays

Today we’re going to continue our series on “Who Am I” by looking at one of the most well-known personality disorders: sociopathy. We’ll explore what it is, where it comes from, and what we can do to interact more skillfully with people who possess it. We also spend a little time investigating how we can work with our own tendencies in that direction if we happen to possess them.
