  • From Surviving Middle School to Grown Ups: Friendship, Nostalgia & Adam Sandler

    Send us a Text Message we would love to hear what you thought of the show.

    In this episode of Wicked Psychotherapists, we dive into Adam Sandler’s Grown Ups and dig into the psychology behind nostalgia, childhood friendships, and the lifelong patterns we carry into adulthood. 

    From the Gen X childhoods we remember to the pressures of parenting in a digital age, we explore how early bonds shape us—and how even a silly waterpark scene can unpack themes of identity, growth, vulnerability, and healing generational wounds.

    Plus: reflections on middle school trauma, how we perform success in adulthood, and the art of repairing friendships (even if it’s been 30 years).

    This one’s heartfelt, insightful, and full of laughs—classic Wicked style.

  • Office Space & Burnout: Why Corporate Culture Feels Soul-Sucking

    Send us a Text Message we would love to hear what you thought of the show.

    In this episode of Wicked Psychotherapists, Erin and Tanya dive deep into the cult classic Office Space and unpack the very real mental health themes hiding in plain sight—burnout, toxic work environments, corporate dysfunction, and the pressure to “find meaning” in your 9 to 5.

    Whether you've ever hated your job, dreamed about smashing your office printer, or questioned your career path while stuck in traffic—this one’s for you.

    We explore how identity, purpose, and work culture collide, reflect on clients (and our own experiences) with burnout, and laugh through the absurdity of meaningless meetings and flair-covered uniforms. 

    Plus, we ask: If your bills were covered, what would you actually want to do for work?

    Spoiler: the answers include therapy centers, art studios, rescue dogs, and a whole lotta travel.

  • Truman Show: Gaslighting, Social Media, and the Search for Self

    Send us a Text Message we would love to hear what you thought of the show.

    What if your entire life was secretly being broadcast to the world—would you know it?


    This week on Wicked Psychotherapists, Erin and Tanya dive deep into the psychological layers of The Truman Show, that eerily ahead-of-its-time 1998 film starring Jim Carrey in one of his first serious roles. 

    We break down how this classic predicted the rise of social media, 24/7 surveillance culture, and the growing pressure to perform “normalcy” for an invisible audience.

    From gaslighting on a global scale to the link between Truman’s experiences and social anxiety, we explore the mental health implications of being watched—and what it means to find your authentic self in a world full of curated performances. 

    Also, don’t miss our challenge question: would you take $2 million a year to be live-streamed 24/7? Your answer might surprise you.

    🎥 Next up: Office Space!
    👻 And yes—“Little Nicky” for Halloween might just be happening...

    💬 Listen, reflect, and let us know: would YOU have escaped the Truman Show?

  • Meet the Fockers: Gen X, Family Dysfunction & People Pleasing

    Send us a Text Message we would love to hear what you thought of the show.

    This week on Wicked Psychotherapists, Gen X psychotherapist Erin and her “Xennial” co-host Tanya (that sweet spot between Gen X and Millennial) dig into the hilarious emotional chaos of Meet the Parents and Meet the Fockers. Think: lie detectors, lost cats, ninth-place trophies — and a whole lot of family dysfunction.

    Why do people-pleasers like Greg fall apart around controlling dads? How does being raised with too much or not enoughstructure shape anxiety, identity, and our adult relationships?

    Erin and Tanya bring personal stories, therapist insights, and generational wisdom to this deep-yet-fun look at parenting styles, emotional boundaries, and surviving awkward family dynamics.

    🎧 Whether you’re Gen X, Xennial, Millennial, or just someone who’s ever dreaded meeting the in-laws — you’ll relate.

  • Would Therapy Ever Be Like Anger Management? Psychotherapists Break It Down

    Send us a Text Message we would love to hear what you thought of the show.

    Can therapy really look like what we see in Anger Management with Adam Sandler and Jack Nicholson? In this laugh-out-loud episode of Wicked Psychotherapists, Erin and Tanya—two licensed therapists—take a wicked deep dive into the film’s chaotic version of “treatment.”

    We’re talking unethical therapy, people-pleasing personalities, power dynamics, and the real psychology behind why Adam Sandler’s character avoids conflict (until he doesn’t). 

    From the bizarre exposure techniques to the ridiculous boundary-blurring moments, we’re breaking down what this movie gets wildly wrong about mental health care—and the surprising bits it gets kinda right.

    🎬 Whether you're a therapist, a Sandler fan, or just love analyzing movies through a mental health lens, this one’s for you.

    ✨ Plus, we share how this all connects to birth order, childhood trauma, and whether we could ever be concierge therapists like Jack Nicholson’s character (spoiler: we’re not moving into anyone’s house anytime soon).

    🎧 New episodes every Wednesday. Come hang out, laugh, and learn with us.

    Send us a Text Message we would love to hear what you thought of the show.

    In this hilarious and heartfelt episode of Wicked Psychotherapists, Erin and Tanya keep the Adam Sandler streak alive by diving headfirst into the outrageous 2011 comedy Jack and Jill. 

    From twin dynamics to emotional dysregulation, sibling rivalry, and unresolved grief, we unpack the psychological gems hidden beneath the slapstick chaos.

    Join us as we dissect Jill’s unfiltered emotions, Jack’s image-conscious career moves, and what this movie reveals about authenticity, family roles, and identity.

     Of course, we throw in plenty of laughs, pop culture connections (hello again, Johnny Depp!), and a final showdown between Dunkin’ and Starbucks. It’s wicked smart, wicked funny, and wicked relatable.

    Whether you're a fan of Sandler, sibling drama, or just love finding therapy themes in unexpected places—this one's for you.

  • Big Daddy, Failure to Launch & the Fear of Adulting – Why Your 5-Year Plan Might Be BS

    Send us a Text Message we would love to hear what you thought of the show.

    In this week's Wicked Psychotherapists, Erin and Tanya dive into the 1999 classic Big Daddy—a hilarious Adam Sandler film that surprisingly packs a serious punch about arrested development, generational pressure, and why so many people get stuck in "failure to launch" mode. 

    From fake five-year plans to learning how to adult (badly), we talk about the fear of growing up, why career pressure is real, and how the smallest relationships can kickstart major change. 

    We also share our own floundering paths, our favorite ice cream memories, and what to do when life feels stuck. It’s funny, honest, therapeutic, and totally wicked.
