This episode explores the quiet — and sometimes chaotic — inner world of therapists after the session ends. From compassionate reflections to intrusive worries, “therapist brain” doesn’t always clock out at 5pm.

I’ll share some common (and totally human) thoughts that might pop up after seeing clients, why they happen, and how we can meet them with compassion instead of shame.

New episodes every week to support your growth as a therapist, especially if you’re early in your career or building your practice.
