Silence in therapy can feel awkward, intense—or downright confusing. In this first episode of Therapy Backstage, I explore what’s really going on when your therapist seems to just sit there and stare.

We’ll look at:

• Why therapists use silence in the first place
• What it might bring up for you as a client
• How silence can reveal things that words can’t
• Why it’s not about making you cry or feel uncomfortable on purpose
• How to talk to your therapist if silence doesn’t feel helpful

Whether you’re new to therapy, in it already, or just curious—this episode is your invitation to peek behind the curtain and better understand one of therapy’s quietest tools.
