“I have so enjoyed this podcast! I love hearing Hillary’s commentary throughout the session as she explains different types of therapy. She even gives details as to why her client may be reacting a certain way. For example: they might say they are angry at their mother, but really it means they are scared they might become hurtful like their mother or fear they will never be good enough. It makes you think back to moments in your life when you might have had a different situation but felt similar. It opens you up to some introspection. I enjoy how she connects what we feel in the physical body to how we feel emotionally.
The editing of this podcast is fabulous and there is a good balance of hearing the person’s story and not needing so much background. But when needed, Hillary gives just enough background to help the listener understand the patient’s story in a short session. They have picked good sessions that many can learn from.
Personally I have gone to about 3 years of counseling and it has been helpful. I have enjoyed listening in on other’s sessions here because it makes my experience in counseling seem more normal, and it makes me look back on sessions that were more painful and begin to relearn or remember what my therapist said.
The biggest thing I have learned while listening to this podcast is that it’s okay to bring “normal problems” into counseling. While there might be an underlying mental health issue people are still people and they get hurt. For many reasons we don’t always learn how to process hurt and the pain that comes with life, that could be a mental illness, traumatic event, or a bad childhood, but this podcast shows that regardless of the baggage we have to carry through life we can still learn to function as whole beings again. We don’t have to be defined by our trauma. We can be human and that’s okay.
I highly recommend listening to this podcast. If you have never been in counseling (or have gone to bad counseling) this gives you a wonderful picture of what it can look like.
Note: There are some intense topics, so it is not recommended to listen with children present. If you know you have particular triggers the individual podcast description will give you an intro to the topic discussed.
The only issue I’d have with this podcast is there are a lot of advertisements. But that’s expected in the world. Especially since I’m listening to this for free! 😊”

“This podcast is so interesting and helpful. I strongly believe in the normalization of therapy and mental health issues and I think podcasts like this make a huge step towards that effort. Well done!”
