Therapy Thursday with Kelly U.

My family might hate me for this episode..

Kelly invites radically honest psychotherapist Sit with Whit (Whitney Goodman, LMFT). Whitney is a licensed therapist in Family and Marriage Therapy, with a specialization in trauma - which is right up Kelly’s alley! They talk about their own family upbringings and why parents don’t always know best. Plus, Whitney answers YOUR questions about your family, therapy, everything.

We bring a whole new meaning to daddy issues…

And we aren’t just talking about in the bedroom! This week, Kelly interviews Mary Jelkovsky - the face of Mary’s Cup of Tea and author of the newly released The Gift of Self-Love. In this episode, Kelly and Mary find out they have the same dad and discuss the impact of growing up in a household of immigrants in America. Plus, find out why dad crying is SO annoying and how to work on forgiving a parent who’s let you down.

You’ve heard us talk all about codependency with friends, food and partners - but what about codependency with social media? In this episode, Kelly interviews internet and real life friend, Kenzie Brenna, about the reality of being a social media influencer. From unrealistic expectations, to the pressures of the platform, to dating as an influencer (and how to hide your account from prospective suitors) - we share the REAL TEA on what it’s like to be an influencer on Instagram in 2021. Plus, we read your vent sessions on your own relationship with social media.

You heard that right, KELLY was a STONER! 

But after having some deep self-reflection during the panorama, Kelly is celebrating her first year of sobriety. In this episode, we deep dive into our first experiences with cannabis, why smoking weed felt SO good for SO long and how she managed to quit cold turkey after 10 long years of reefer smoking. Plus, Kelly responds to your “ASK ME ANYTHING” about withdrawals, sex without weed and getting rid of all her precious bongs, vapes and pens.

Hi, I’m Kelly U, and I love therapy. But I promise, this will not feel like a therapy session. I’m here to do two things. First, I want to show you that it’s not “just you” thinking, feeling and struggling the way you do. And two, I will tell you what it’s really like to heal through things that you never thought you could. 

What qualifies me for such an endeavor? Six years of therapy to finally leave a toxic relationship, face my family drama and trauma, and recover from a lifetime of eating disorders and depression. Every Thursday we will tackle different mental health topics such as trauma, eating disorders, toxic relationships and family dynamics. Through conversations with established experts and advocates, we’ll dive into the process of healing and build confidence and skills to tackle the messiness of life together.
