6. "Shrinking" for Non-Shrinks
If you’ve watched the Apple+ show “Shrinking,” you’ve no doubt wondered if this is what therapists are really like. In this episode of When Therapists Watch TV, we will attempt to answer that question and more. Can a therapist really take their clients to a mixed martial arts club to fight? Is it ok for them to go into a client's home? How much should your therapist tell you about their personal life? What should you do if your therapist tells you to do something or they will fire you as a client?
Our two guests for this episode include Nic Brave, a licensed marriage and family therapist, and Laura Fegley, a Creative Director and big fan of therapy. They will assist host Terri Bly in unpacking the many eyebrow-raising decisions made by the therapists in “Shrinking,” to make sure you, the viewer, know what is reasonable to expect from your own therapist.
When Therapists Watch TV is a podcast from Ellie Mental Health where we react to and discuss today's buzz-worthy TV shows and what they can teach us about ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. This podcast is hosted Dr. Terri Bly, PsyD, an avid watcher of television and licensed clinical psychologist. Each season, we will feature shows we think does an excellent job portraying some aspect of being human. With the help of other mental health professionals and subject matter experts, we will explore how television tackles important topics such as mental health, relationships, addiction, grief and loss, parenting - all that good human stuff.
Ellie Mental Health is an outpatient mental health clinic that began in St. Paul, Minnesota and has continued to expand to over 20 clinics in Minnesota and a growing number of franchises across the country (we'll be opening over 500 locations in communities nationwide in the near future!!).
