A woman named Kendra went viral on TikTok with a series of videos about her relationship with her human psychiatrist, but the videos took a surprising turn when she introduced her ChatGPT “therapist” she calls Henry. More people than you might think are forming social relationships with chatbots, some of them romantic and even sexual. When OpenAI released their new ChatGPT-5 model last week, replacing the older ChatGPT-4o model, many users felt like a loved one had been taken away from them. Bridget and Producer Mike recap how the botched ChatGPT release brought this issue into the spotlight, try to understand the vulnerable humans caught in the middle, and explore what it means when tech products replace human connection.

The solution to all (okay, most) of the challenges facing group practices is embedded, quite cleverly, in the name. Owner, admin, or therapist, your individual participation informs the altruistic and financial goals of the entire practice. And also… Groups are powered by people––real, live humans with individual expectations, convictions, experiences, and traumas.  Samantha Perry, LCSW, encourages folks on both sides of the "old school/new school" divide to get comfortable with transparency and vulnerability. She also recommends committing to intrapersonal healing work, especially around our faulty strategies for addressing shame (excessive caretaking, aversion to feedback, etc) or how those strategies sabotage the work environments we're trying to create! GUEST BIO Samantha Perry (she/her) is an LCSW, working at LifePath Therapy Associates in Chicago as the Coordinator of Group Therapy and Training. She is a certified NARM therapist, and loves supporting folks who want to build their capacity for connecting to themselves and others, create a new relationship to their body, or develop freedom and flexibility around their experiences of shame. She specializes in working with folks healing from religious and complex trauma. When she's not learning or working, you can find her quilting, dancing, or writing, where she is learning to embrace her own perfectionist parts. *** Join the Group Practice (R)evolution!

AI tools like ChatGPT are everywhere. People are using them for everything from writing workouts and meal plans to getting therapy or relationship advice. But can AI truly replace the role of a trained professional? In this conversation, we explore the pros and cons of using AI for deeply personal, health-related, and emotional needs. We talk about where AI can be a useful tool, and where it falls short. From privacy concerns and accuracy issues to the irreplaceable value of human connection, empathy, and individualized care, this episode unpacks why your lived experience can't be reduced to an algorithm. In this episode: The surprising ways people are using AI for emotional and health support Why therapy is more than just techniques and advice.

Being a veterinarian is about caring for animals… right? Increasingly, many vets feel their role is shifting toward being a therapist for pet owners, and it's taking a toll. In this episode of The Veterinary Viewfinder, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, explore the growing emotional labor demands placed on veterinary professionals. From helping clients navigate grief, guilt, and financial stress, to managing unrealistic expectations fueled by social media, veterinarians are spending more and more time counseling pet owners instead of focusing exclusively on clinical care. Dr. Ward reflects on the hidden burnout risk of constant emotional support, while Beckie shares how technicians also shoulder the weight of client emotions, often without formal training or resources. They discuss whether veterinary schools and practices are adequately preparing teams for this counseling role, the blurred boundaries between empathy and overextension, and how this shift impacts mental health, job satisfaction, and retention. Most importantly, they offer strategies for setting healthy boundaries while still delivering compassionate and effective care. If you've ever felt more like a life coach than a clinician—or wondered why today's veterinary job feels so emotionally heavy—this episode will resonate.

In this episode, Tudor talks with Rabbi Daniel Schonbuch about the pressing issues of self-focus in society, the role of faith, and the importance of values in family dynamics. They explore the impact of modern therapy, the challenges of parenting in a technology-driven world, and the cultural narratives perpetuated by media. The conversation also delves into the political climate on college campuses, the implications of crime and safety in communities, and the necessity of setting boundaries for children to foster healthy relationships.

Do you ever feel like grad school prepared you to be a therapist—but not to run a private practice? In this episode, I sit down with Kate and Alyssa, who are best friends, business partners, and alumnae of my Scale Up Mastermind. These two powerhouse therapists went from subleasing offices to building a full-blown online coaching program for therapists ready to leave agency work and launch their own practice. We talk candidly about everything from figuring out their niche to building a product from scratch, all while navigating life changes like honeymoons and pregnancies. If you've ever felt unprepared for the business side of therapy, this one is a must-listen. Kate and Alyssa get real about what it actually takes to launch a group coaching program while still running a full caseload. We unpack their decision to build “Sh*t They Didn't Teach You in Grad School,” how they found their first clients, and why community is the glue that holds it all together. Whether you're in the dreaming phase or prepping your own launch, you'll learn what it takes (and what to avoid) when creating a new income stream as a therapist. Topics Covered in this Episode: 1:13 - The overlooked business model no one teaches therapists 3:25 - How their casual advice to friends turned into a real offer 5:44 - Why group coaching helped them scale with less burnout 12:58 - The exact tools they use to keep therapists accountable 16:34 - How their custom income calculator helps therapists finally “do the math” 18:40 - The financial mindset shift therapists desperately need to hear   If you're a therapist tired of piecing together business advice from random corners of the internet, Kate and Alyssa's story will show you what's possible.

Everett Uhl - media contacts Site: Everett Uhl Therapy Email: euhl@committed-action.com Instagram @everettuhltherapy In this conversation, I interview Everett Uhl, a licensed marriage and family counselor, about her role as a therapist. We discuss the importance of authenticity in therapeutic practices, the need for action-oriented approaches, and some critiques of traditional therapy models, especially in relation to religious influences. I loved how Everett emphasized the significance of understanding human experiences in context rather than through rigid diagnoses, and of course, I'll always cheer on an advocate for integrating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into one's practice, with Everett combining it with the Bowen family systems approaches. A Few Highlights Authenticity in therapy fosters a genuine connection with clients. Therapy should empower clients to take action, not just vent. Understanding context is crucial for accurate diagnoses. Expectations of therapy should be realistic and not solely focused on validation. ACT encourages clients to make choices and move forward. Rigid definitions in Christian counseling can lead to harm. Secular therapy provides a safe space free from religious judgment. Therapists should be aware of their biases and dual relationships. The future of therapy should embrace flexibility and critical thinking.

When GPT-5 was released last week, the internets were in an UPROAR. One of the main reasons? With the better model, came a new behavior. And in losing GPT-4o, people feel they lost a friend.

Yikes. For this Hot Take Tuesday, we're gonna say why using AI as a therapist is a really, really bad idea. Newsletter: Sign up for our free daily newsletterMore on this Episode: Episode PageJoin the discussion: Thoughts on this?

In this heartfelt episode of Through a Therapist's Eyes, we dive deep into why grief truly sucks - and why it's still a vital part of healing. From the brain's trauma-like response to loss, to the layers and patterns of grief that don't always follow a neat timeline, we explore how it affects not just emotions, but sleep, appetite, cognition, and even your immune system. We unpack concepts like “pre-grieving,” discuss the hidden pain of disenfranchised losses, and share practical strategies for navigating the storm - whether that's through small acts of self-care, rituals of remembrance, or simply allowing yourself to feel without judgment. Join us as we break the silence around grief, challenge the clichés, and remind you: what you're feeling is not only real - it's necessary.   Tune in to see why Grief Sucks Through a Therapist's Eyes.  

“I Was Afraid of All Food—Whether It Was a Piece of Celery or a Cookie” Meet Susan. She’s an occupational therapist, a wife, and a mom. And for 40 years, she lived in a self-imposed “diet prison”. F-O-R-T-Y Y-E-A-R-S. Every diet promised freedom, but instead, it left her feeling more trapped—more consumed by guilt, shame, and the constant battle with food and her body. Susan started to believe that this was just her reality. “This is how it’s always going to be,” she told herself. But deep down, she wasn’t okay with it. Her obsession with food and her body was taking a toll—not just on herself but on the people she loved most. Missed moments, crushing guilt, and the feeling of “never enough” became her daily norm. “I felt like I was failing,” Susan confessed. “Not just as a woman, but as a wife, a mom, and even a therapist. How could I help others when I couldn’t even get this part of my life together?” And yet, Susan knew there had to be another way. Her turning point came when she decided to stop fighting food and her body. She made the bold choice to let go of dieting altogether and instead commit to healing her relationship with herself. Now, Susan joins me to share her remarkable story of transformation. How she overcame decades of food obsession and fear to finally find peace.Why it’s never too late to rewrite your story—no matter how long you’ve been stuck.The steps she took to release shame, heal her body, and reconnect with herself, her loved ones, and even her faith. Susan’s story is proof that healing is possible—even after 40 years. No matter where you are or how long you’ve struggled, freedom is waiting for you, too.

Send us a textIn this episode of The Fully Mindful, I'm joined by Andrea Epting, a trauma and addiction recovery expert, to dive deep into the intersection of neurodivergence, addiction, and how these challenges uniquely manifest in women. Andrea, who works with individuals navigating trauma and neurodivergence, sheds light on how ADHD is often misdiagnosed in women, with many only receiving a diagnosis later in life due to hormonal shifts.We explore how ADHD shows up differently for women—particularly in how mental hyperactivity manifests and how it is often mistaken for anxiety or depression. Andrea also discusses the power of self-awareness and community in the healing process, emphasizing the importance of recognizing your neurodivergent brain as a strength, especially when navigating addiction and recovery.We talk about the impact of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), somatic practices, and how we can use these tools to heal from trauma and integrate self-compassion. Additionally, Andrea shares her work at her nonprofit Heads Up Guidance Services (HUGS) in Savannah, Georgia, which provides accessible behavioral health counseling through volunteer professionals, and the release of her Plan to Recover Mini Journal—a resource designed to help individuals automate healthy habits and track their recovery journey.Whether you are dealing with addiction, neurodivergence, or trauma—or all three—this episode provides hope, tools, and encouragement to continue your healing journey.Links Mentioned:Plan to Recover Mini Journal on Amazon: Plan to Recover JournalDirect Impact Podcast: Direct Impact PodcastHeads Up Guidance Services (HUGS): Heads Up SavannahResolve Strategies Inc.: Resolve Strategies Inc.Join the Fully Mindful Community: ✨ Subscribe & Review: If you enjoyed this episode, please leave us a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify—it helps others find the show!✨ Stay Connected: Follow @the_fully_mindful on Instagram for mindfulness tips, breathwork insights, and more!✨ Free Breathwork Sessions: Email me at info@thefully.mindful.com to get signed up for your first session for free of my monthly Unwind Your Mind session.

Join us for an insightful conversation with Dr. Becky Whetstone, a pioneer in the field of marriage crisis management. Dr. Whetstone shares her personal journey of discovering a critical gap in therapy training after experiencing her own marriage crisis.

Listen in as we explore the common pattern of internal marital dissatisfaction that often leads to a crisis, highlighting the need for effective communication and professional support.
