You Need Therapy: Myths, Misconceptions & Why My Therapist Fired Me

Do you actually need therapy... or does society just love pretending we don't? We talk one of the biggest misconceptions surrounding mental health and self-growth: therapy. From the myth that therapy is only for people who are struggling, to the reality of sitting across from a stranger and somehow ending up discussing your childhood after originally showing up because Chad wouldn't text you back. Joshua explores why people who've never gone to therapy often judge it the hardest, how many LGBTQ individuals learn survival before emotional regulation, and what happens when you realize some of your "personality traits" might actually be coping mechanisms wearing a cute outfit. He also shares a personal story about the unexpected moment his own therapist told him he was finished with therapy and what graduating therapy actually means.
