My Therapist Said is where therapy, comedy, and the human experience collide. Hosted by Stef, a licensed therapist and advocate with just enough self-awareness left to translate the chaos of being human. Expect honest conversations, uncomfortable truths, and humor. Therapists have boundaries. This therapist has opinions.
Because mental health doesn't have to be heavy to be heard.
Disclaimer: My Therapist Said is a conversation, not therapy. Stef brings professional and lived experience to the mic, but the show is not intended as assessment, diagnosis, or individualized treatment advice.
What happens when the problem child becomes a therapist?
This week on My Therapist Said, Stef gets into the lifelong experience of being the family troublemaker, why dark humor has always been her love language, and how grief and laughter can exist in the same breath. From dead-parent jokes and teenage rebellion to career setbacks, comparison, and the uncomfortable feeling that you should be further along in life by now, we're covering it all. And somehow, we still find time to discuss the men of Love Is Blind.
If you've ever felt like the problem child, questioned your path, or wondered why everyone else seems to have life figured out, this one's for you. Sometimes there's no lesson, no solution, and no perfectly wrapped-up ending. Sometimes we're just figuring it out together.

the new girl is crying!!
What happens when you can accept your life, but you're having a really hard time digesting it?
This week, Stef shows up exhausted, makeup-free (eyebrows don't count), and a little more honest than she planned. This week included: crying at work, questionable luck, and an inconvenient power outage. Stef is unpacking the difference between accepting your circumstances and actually being okay with them. From learning to meet yourself where you are to navigating loneliness, sharing uncomfortable truths, and wanting your experiences to be acknowledged without being compared, this episode gets personal.
Plus, a little therapist advocacy, why sometimes "this fucking sucks" is exactly what someone needs to hear, and Bubs apparently discovering that he's a dog.

headway: the horror show
Hey, do you want to sit and talk about horror movies?
This week, Stef is revisiting her childhood obsession with The Sixth Sense, explaining why The Ring and The Grudge still haunt her, and making the case for why psychological horror beats unnecessary gore. Not a horror movie girly? Don't worry. There's also dating, starting over, and a little existential crisis sprinkled in.
And because this is My Therapist Said, naturally, horror movies lead to a heated rant about Headway, therapist reimbursement, and the nightmare of working in mental healthcare. What do psychological horror and therapy tech companies have in common? Apparently, more than anyone asked Stef to explain.
