Psychiatry Myths & Mental HealthHow To Spot A Good Therapist Fast!
🔥 “Bad Therapy Red Flag: If They Get Defensive, RUN!” 🔥
Let’s get brutally honest for a sec — a legit therapist should NEVER get offended when you ask how they practice. If they talk in circles, dodge your questions, or backtrack every time you poke at their method, 🚩🚩🚩 pack your emotional suitcase and RUN.
A confident, competent therapist knows exactly how they approach your healing because they’ve put in the years — and the cash — to do it. They’ll say:
👉 “Hey, I’m Michael. I’m not here to coddle you. I’m here to hit you with the truth because I care about your outcome. I lean on Jungian theory, sprinkle in a bit of Freud, and I’m here to make you uncomfortable enough to grow. Let’s do this.”
That’s how it should sound. You deserve to know how your mind’s about to get rearranged before you fork over your hard-earned cash. 💸
And yeah, let’s not ignore the money piece. Therapy is expensive — so don’t waste it on someone who treats your questions like an attack on their fragile ego.
✅ If they can’t tell you what they do and why — they don’t know what they’re doing. Period.
