🎙️ Welcome back to Collectively Unhinged: Therapy Talk — where we embrace the chaos of being mental health professionals and keep it as real as your last 8 a.m. client.

In this episode, we're diving into the awkward gap between what grad school told us therapy would be like vs. what it's actually like in the room. Spoiler alert: textbooks didn’t prepare us for clients ghosting, crying in parking lots, or watching someone walk through a session in their underwear (yes, that happened).

From the pressure to be the “perfect therapist” to the emotional exhaustion no one warns you about — we’re breaking it all down. If you’re a student, a new therapist, or just nosy about the behind-the-scenes of the therapy world, this one’s for you.

We also share the biggest surprises, unexpected lessons, and what we wish we knew back then — including some much-needed advice: It’s not about having all the answers. It’s about showing up human.

🎧 Listen in, laugh with us, and feel a little more seen in this wonderfully unhinged profession.
