The Broken Brain

Dwight Hurst

Booking Overview

A psychology and psychotherapy interview show focused on therapeutic perspectives, personal development, mental health, and emotionally complex social issues, typically featuring subject-matter experts, authors, advocates, and creative professionals. PR agencies could credibly pitch therapists, psychiatrists, psychology researchers, authors, grief or recovery advocates, and filmmakers addressing psychologically relevant themes; booking difficulty is medium because the show welcomes accessible professionals but favors guests with established expertise, published work, or compelling lived experience.
