What Your Therapist Thinks: Answering The Internet’s Most Burning Mental Health Questions

What Your Therapist Thinks is 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 burning mental health questions, they mean the stuff people are posting about anonymously on Reddit in the middle of the night. These therapists aren’t holding back. They’re telling you what they really think, including the things they’d never actually say in session. 

Kristie Plantinga, founder of BestTherapists.com, and co-host Felicia Keller Boyle, licensed somatic therapist, launched their new podcast, What Your Therapist Thinks on September 10, 2025.

The co-hosts pulling back the curtain on the mental health profession by revealing what therapists are actually thinking.

What Your Therapist Thinks provides a bridge between clinical expertise and public curiosity by tackling today's most talked-about mental health topics with honesty and humor. The show is definitely not academic in nature, although listeners can learn a lot about mental health from the show. The tenor of the show is uplifting, positive, and, when appropriate, light-hearted.

Hosted by BestTherapists.com founder Kristie Plantinga, and licensed somatic therapist Felicia Keller Boyle, the podcast features expert therapists who break down real-life stories and the internetʼs most pressing questions.

A core focus of the show is to bring clarity to online mental health discussions.

The hosts will address and demystify psychological buzzwords, like gaslighting and narcissism, that dominate social media. Drawing directly from anonymous Reddit posts and listener questions, each episode will provide validation, actionable tools, and a professionally informed perspective on issues ranging from emotional numbness and trauma to self-worth and healing.

"The internet loves throwing around clinical terms, but most of the time, people are getting it wrong. We're here to sort that out," says host Kristie Plantinga. "Our goal is to create a show where people can get clear answers and genuinely helpful tools, proving that conversations about mental health can be both educational and entertaining."

Co-host Felicia Keller Boyle adds, "We're touching on the stuff you think about bringing up in therapy… but maybe don't. It is a space for real chats with real therapists. We might not be your therapists, but we know some really good ones."

Season One of What Your Therapist Thinks will release new episodes weekly throughout the fall. 

What Your Therapist Thinks is brought to you by BestTherapists.com—a directory that vets mental health professionals so therapy-seekers can focus on fit.

Listeners can subscribe to the podcast on all major platforms and watch full video episodes on the What Your Therapist Thinks on YouTube channel. 

While some "mental health" podcasts can be scammy in nature, selling supplements for anxiety, doling out sketchy advice, oversimplifying complex psychological conditions, and anointing their show as the repository of all truth on mental health, What Your Therapist Thinks has some serious street cred. I admire the show's goal, which seems more instructive than prescriptive.
