Imagine walking through a maze, where every turn is dictated by the complex intricacies of mental health and therapy—this episode is your guide to navigating that maze. We're genuinely touched by your responses to our discussions, which prove just how vital it is to give airtime to the less-discussed aspects of mental health care. Your stories resonate deeply, fueling our passion to dissect iatrogenic effects and the holistic approaches that are often overlooked in treatment.

In a world where teen mental health is a burgeoning concern, we question interventions that may miss the mark. We question interventions that hurt you, rather than help.  It's called Iatrogenics. From the paradoxical outcomes of well-intentioned programs to the impact of social media on mental health, Dr. Teralyn and Therapist Jenn, don't shy away from the ethical quagmires in therapeutic practices. We consider the delicate balance between aiding recovery and fostering dependency, both in therapy and through medication. The power dynamics at play between therapist and client are given a spotlight, as we share real-life tales from the clinical frontlines, emphasizing the critical importance of tailored treatment.

Wrapping up, we underscore the profound influence mental health care has on individuals from all walks of life. We invite you to reflect on these multifaceted issues and engage with us in this ongoing dialogue. Whether you're a fellow clinician, someone navigating their own mental health journey, or simply an interested listener, your insight is a cornerstone of the Gaslet Truth. Join us as we continue to explore, challenge, and enlighten on the lesser-spoken truths of mental wellbeing.
