Reality Therapy is a podcast about how reality itself can be therapeutic. While I touch on a variety of topics with many interesting guests, I am primarily focused on the therapy profession. Most guests are therapists or graduate students who focus on observing and analyzing the influence of social justice ideology on this field.

This leaves many students feeling alienated and prevents people seeking therapy from getting the help they need.

In this episode, Leslie Elliott Boyce describes the nightmare of woke indoctrination in her masters of counseling program, her effort to resist, and her journey to call out political bias in the mental health fields in her podcast.
In this episode, therapist Ryan Forbes describes ideological bias in the field due to politics, but also how the profession is certifying people whose own mental illness may disqualify them from helping others.
In this episode, therapist Joan Landes describes how she has observed the therapy profession become ever more political, and notes how this increasing corruption is destroying the spirit of the field.
In this episode, therapist Megan Holder describes continuing education trainings to maintain her license that were little more than indoctrination.

She describes how she was motivated to stand up against this corruption in the mental health profession and take a stand for good therapy.
In this episode, psychiatrist Dr. Michael McClurkin discusses growing up in poverty and rising to being educated at three different Ivy League schools before beginning his practice in psychiatric medicine.
