  • Can Rage Ever be Healthy? with Debbie Whyte APCC, ATR (she/her)
    2024/10/23

    This week host Renae Johnson (they/them) and OSTC therapist Debbie Whyte (she/her) explore if rage can be healthy. Feeling overwhelmed by rage? You’re not alone. For many of us in the LGBTQ+ community, anger is tied to lived experiences of discrimination.

    In this episode we answer:

    • Ugh I get so angry. Sometimes I just need to scream. Is this ok?

    • Can rage help me feel motivated? Sometimes it’s the only thing that gets me going.

    • I have lived with depression and rage for a lot of my life. It’s who I am and I don’t want to give that up. Is therapy supposed to change me?

    • The world is turned against queer and trans people and I am just infuriated all the time. I feel like my rage is controlling me but there’s so much to be upset about!

    • My partner only listens to me if I yell at them. And they REALLY piss me off sometimes. Is it healthy to freak out on them when I’m upset? It’s just me being authentic about how I feel.

    Join us as we unpack and embrace rage as an important part of the human experience. What healthy outlets do you use to process these emotions?

  • Can you have healthy relationships if you only saw toxic ones modeled in your family? with Kristen Crowe (they/she)
    2024/09/26

    Ever feel like your relationship blueprint is straight out of a toxic family playbook? In this episode of My Therapist is Out!, host Renae Johnson (they/them) and therapist Kristen Crowe (they/she) ask the big question: "Can you actually have healthy relationships if all you’ve seen are the messy, dysfunctional ones growing up?"

    Spoiler alert: Yes, you can—but it’s a journey. We’re digging into what it takes to shake off the patterns you grew up with and figure out what a healthy connection even looks like. From setting boundaries to identifying red flags, we’ll chat with a therapist who’s seen it all, and hear from listeners who’ve successfully broken free from the drama-filled cycles of their past.

    Think you’re destined to repeat history? Not on our watch. Grab your tea (or something stronger) and let’s get real about what it takes to rewrite the relationship script you inherited.
