Therapy changed my life in many positive ways, and I deeply respect the many ethical, compassionate therapists who dedicate their lives to helping others.\nBut after working with a doctor who exploited that trust, I found myself navigating something I never imagined: therapy abuse.\nThis podcast isn’t about attacking the profession. It’s about bringing light to the unethical practitioners who can cause profound harm, exploring how these situations happen, and advocating for stronger protections for clients during the reporting process.\nIn this episode, I share:\n* Why I decided to speak publicly.\n* My personal journey into therapy - and what changed.\n* Why silence protects predators.\n* My hope for creating awareness, education, and meaningful change.\nIf this episode resonated with you, please consider following the podcast, leaving a review, and sharing it with someone who may find it helpful.\n\nFollow the podcast:\n🎧 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheOtherSideOfTherapy\n📷 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/othersideoftherapy\n\n#TherapyAbuse #TherapyHarm #MentalHealth #Psychotherapy #Ethics #TraumaRecovery #Healing #TheOtherSideOfTherapy","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/N0WuOAtJClftvytTTtD_75BuY42Vjv-OTkO4WrXbYQo/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zYmEy/MzEzYzM2ZjY0ZjE0/MDM5ZjE3MjVhZGZl/ZTBjYy5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
