The Collier Landry Show
Many people have experienced some form of trauma in their life. I decided at an early age that our trauma should not be what defines us; it’s what we choose to do with it that does. I was just 11 years old when I witnessed my father murder my mother in the early morning hours of New Year's Eve. When no one believed me except one detective, I gathered evidence against my father, leading police to discover her body buried in another state. After having my story featured on Forensic Files, I channeled my trauma into filmmaking and podcasting, gaining widespread recognition as the creator and subject of A Murder in Mansfield, a film directed by two-time Oscar winner Barbara Kopple. Every week, I share my unique perspective on surviving true crime and trauma, overcoming adversity, and moving on. Along with sharing my healing process, I speak with fellow trauma survivors, academics, advocates, and storytellers and explore what came next. I hope this podcast serves as a kind of therapy and reconciliation for myself, and anyone who may be processing betrayal and dark trauma in their lives.

Season 1

Dr. Dennis Marikis was Collier's psychologist in the days after his mother’s body was discovered. Collier was 11 years old when Dennis helped him process the trauma of his mother's murder by his father, Dr. John F. Boyle, Jr. Dennis was featured in the documentary A Murder in Mansfield. His extensive sessions with Collier, both before and after Collier confronts his father in prison, gave audiences a "fly-on-the-wall" look at a grieving son still processing this horrific event 26 years later.

Episode highlights...

• After a recent listener question, Collier briefly shares his experience in the foster care system and touches upon the challenges the system faces.

• Dennis shares when he met Collier, the day police recovered his mother's body. “This amazing 11-year-old was clear and defined…it’s just who you are…..fortitude built-in..” when we build resilience, we do it by facing tough stuff."

• Collier and Dennis discuss how others can learn from Collier's experiences while they process their own traumas.

• Dennis shares his advice on how people can recognize and deal with narcissists and the manipulation tactics they impose on their lives.
