Deck the Myths: What Therapy Is (and Isn’t)

from Grove: Beyond The Couch · host The Pod Kitchen

Susan and Melissa kick off the holiday season with a fun — and surprisingly insightful — conversation about common myths surrounding therapy. From the idea that “something must be wrong with you” to the misconception that therapists give advice or can read minds, they break it all down with humor, real talk, and a peek behind the scenes of what counseling is actually like. Whether you’re already in therapy or have been curious about what it’s like, this episode helps clear up the stereotypes and makes the whole process feel a lot more human. Plus, there’s a little Christmas chaos, some friendly rivalry, and the promise of exciting guest conversations coming in the new year. Tune in, learn a little, laugh a lot — and Merry Christmas from the “Grows Beyond the Couch” crew! Remember that listening to this podcast is not therapy. It might be therapeutic, but it isn’t a replacement for good mental health treatment. We can help with getting you connected with a good therapist.
