Dr. Tucker Peck is a clinical psychologist and meditation teacher who brings a unique perspective to the intersection of Western therapy and Eastern contemplative practices. With a PhD in clinical psychology focused on meditation research and decades of teaching experience across the globe, Tucker offers a grounded approach to combining psychological work with spiritual development.
I've been getting this question a lot from listeners lately: "Should I do therapy or should I meditate?" It's usually asked with the assumption that you have to pick one path or the other. People seem to think therapy and meditation are competing approaches to wellbeing where one is better than the other.
In this conversation, Dr. Tucker makes a compelling case for why forcing yourself to choose between these approaches might be exactly what's keeping people stuck. His perspective as someone who has mastered both worlds offers a refreshing take on an old debate.
