🎙️ Why Therapy Fails So Many Men | Lion Counseling Podcast #70The therapeutic mindset has become one of the dominant forces in modern culture.We're told to process our feelings.We're told to heal our inner child.We're told to prioritize self-care.But according to some critics, the result isn't a healthier society—it's a more anxious, fragile, and divided one.In this episode, Mark Odland and Zack Carter react to a viral conversation between Megyn Kelly and therapist Jonathan Alpert about the state of modern therapy. As therapists themselves, they explore where the criticism is justified, where it misses the mark, and what high-achieving men need to know before stepping into a counseling office.They discuss:✅ Is therapy creating victim mentality?✅ Why everyone suddenly seems to be a “narcissist”✅ The dangers of over-diagnosis and self-diagnosis✅ Validation vs. accountability in counseling✅ Why resilience still matters✅ CBT, EMDR, and coaching—when each is most effective✅ How good therapy differs from bad therapy✅ What high-performing men should look for in a counselorMark and Zack argue that while some therapy can reinforce avoidance and fragility, great therapy helps people confront reality, heal deeply, build resilience, and move forward with courage.🎙️ Book a Clarity Call with Mark:https://escapethecagenow.com/contact/🎧 Listen Audio-Only:https://lioncounselingpodcast.transistor.fm/📘 Get Mark’s Free E-Book:https://escapethecagenow.com/subscribe/📚 Mark’s Books & Resources:https://escapethecagenow.com/books/🌐 Lion Counseling:https://escapethecagenow.com/#LionCounselingPodcast #Therapy #MensMentalHealth #EMDR #CBT #ChristianCounseling #Resilience #HighAchievingMen #MentalHealth #TraumaRecovery #Masculinity #Leadership #Anxiety #PersonalGrowth #TherapistReaction
