Welcome to Season 2 of What Your Therapist Thinks. We were absolutely mind-blown by all the love we got from you in season 1 and so after some life changes like Kristie having a baby… we’re back!

A mental health show where actual, licensed therapists open up about what they’re really thinking, while answering the internet’s most burning mental health questions. And by "real-world," we mean Reddit posts. Incognito Google searches. And the stuff you think about bringing up in therapy… but maybe don’t. Each week, you’ll hear from expert therapists to break it all down: from dating advice and body dysmorphia to ADHD and EMDR therapy.

First episode drops February 25.

In this special episode, hosts Kristie Plantinga and Felicia Keller Boyle share their own mental health journeys and what led them to create "What Your Therapist Thinks". Drawing from Felicia’s professional background as a somatic therapist and Kristie’s lived experience as a long-time therapy goer, they discuss navigating chronic illness, childhood isolation, the "good kid" trap and why breaking the stigma of silence is the first step toward true healing.

Some takeaways:

1. The "Sensitive Kid to Therapist" pipeline and why high-achievers often hide their pain
2. Why healing happens both inside and outside the therapy room through somatics and community
3. The power of self-forgiveness and the freedom to change your mind and your life

In this special holiday episode, Katrina Mautner, a queer trauma-informed therapist, joins Kristie and Felicia to talk everything on setting boundaries with family. Drawing from Katrina’s anti-oppressive and harm reduction framework, they break down boundaries as a tool for connection—defining them as the distance at which you can love both yourself and the other person.

Some takeaways:

• How boundaries actually allow us to deepen relationships and say "yes" more freely
• Surviving difficult moments with "strategic avoidance" and internal boundaries
• Applying a harm reduction lens to deescalate family conflict, even imperfectly
