Donald Robertson and David Fideler discuss the relationship between Stoicism and the emotions, how negative emotions come into being (and how to manage them), and the influence ancient Stoic philosophy has had on modern psychotherapy.

They also discuss the cognitive theory of emotion, friendship in ancient philosophy, why it's important to have a sense of the greater whole, and how Stoicism and psychotherapy are different.
