Clinical Psychologist and author Gökhan Çınar was a guest on 'Filtresiz' with Özge Uzun.
Responding to those who deemed Katarsis "impossible to do," Çınar also spoke to Özge Uzun about his "only rival."
Discussing the necessity of family psychologists, Çınar stated, "People need to talk about their emotions!"
'I WOULD LIKE TO HOST ERDOĞAN'
When asked by Özge Uzun, "Who is someone you've said, 'I wish they would come on'?" Çınar replied as follows:
"There is, of course, there are many. I would like to host Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
In Turkey, a very large portion of politicians are not at all generous when it comes to sharing their own conscientious, human sides; the parts of their life stories that could inspire others or perhaps create awareness if heard.
Managed by consultants, where even what is to be said and what is not is somehow predetermined... I mean, even things said sincerely and from the heart, like 'I am human too. I have a story like this too,' are usually, as I see in some newspaper interviews, pre-planned, selected sentences...
Or sometimes, they go through life for the sake of creating an image. I wish it weren't like this. I would like to host the President of this country.
'I SAID I WOULD NOT HOST POLITICIANS'
Other than that, of course, it's not just about politics. I mean, at one point I said I wouldn't host political leaders. I even said this on Okan Bayülgen's program. People might sense a contradiction there because at that time I believed strongly: 'They will never be sincere. They will never tell their stories with sincerity.'
'FATMA ŞAHİN WAS VERY SINCERE'
Then I had two guests. Of course, everyone has certain boundaries anyway. Everyone tells as much as they are ready to, but... For example, Fatma Şahin was very sincere when she came.
And seeing that human hesitation actually gives me hope. Look, it doesn't please me. It gives me hope. To step outside of memorized texts, texts read from a teleprompter...
'WE TALKED ABOUT LOVE WITH EKREM İMAMOĞLU AND DİLEK KAYA İMAMOĞLU'
Or on February 14th, Valentine's Day, Ekrem İmamoğlu and Dilek Kaya İmamoğlu came. We talked about love together. I mean, talking about love, relationships, weaknesses with figures who have reached these positions in Turkey... You know, who wrote the first letter? Who blushed? Or, you know, how do they get jealous?
Being able to talk about these things... We are human, after all, we are human like that. No matter what our status is... That's why I think I would like to host them more, even if they are political leaders, in a space where they are open to sharing."
