Have you ever found yourself frustrated because your therapist won’t just tell you what to do? In this episode, Jess and Ryan dive into the reasons why therapists avoid giving direct advice and instead focus on guiding clients toward their own solutions. They explore the philosophy behind this approach, the value of self-discovery in therapy, and how therapists help you build the skills and confidence to navigate life’s challenges on your own. Hosted by: Dr Ryan Bittinger (they/them) and Dr Jess Erb (she/her) Cover art by: Una Grace Norona (she/her) Produced and edited by: Denise Danda (she/her) Follow us on Instagram: @yourtherapistisnotokay
