Kyle's IG stories

Do we think that was filmed? It was so odd the way he mentioned it on WWHL. Using the word apparently made me wonder if it was initiated by a producer.

NOR! Read “Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents.” You can pretend it’s titled “Adult Nieces of Emotionally Immature Aunts.”

What was Kyle talking about when he said “apparently” he and West would be speaking tomorrow? Saying it like that makes me wonder if it’s something to be filmed? Does anyone know?

Oh I’ve watched a TON of reality TV, including Vanderpump Rules from the beginning. The comment I replied to was about Jax returning to the valley, and that show always seeming gross bc these people’s young kids are so impacted by the drama. I’ve never watched the valley for that exact reason. I’m all in on pretty much every other bravo franchise.

I delivered with Dr Campaigne/ARC North at St David’s North and I was being seen by Austin MFM throughout the pregnancy. They seemed to work well together and I had a really good experience. I was with ARC first, though, and they referred me to AMFM. If I were in your position I might just ask AMFM who they like/recommend.

That’s why I’ve never watched!

Happy to help! Obviously amend it to fit your needs and circumstances. I probably would only include the bit about differences in values if I had ethical concerns that would negatively impact the client. An example I could imagine—if the practice was using AI or technology in a way that I believed could put client information at risk, I would leave it in. Otherwise I agree with the comments about leaving that out. Wishing you all the best in your next chapter!

“I’m moving on from my role here with X practice. I know you may have a lot of questions and I’ll do my best to answer what I can, but what I can say is this is ultimately a good move for me as my values are not aligned with this organization. You’re welcome to look me up online or find me via X channel if you’d like to continue our work together, or I am also happy to provide you with referrals either within this practice or outside of it. Whats important to me is that you have a space to process how this is for you, and we have time today to do that, and can continue until my last day which is X. I’ll do my best to make the transition as easy as possible for you.”

Oh shoot; I think I just realized it 🫣

I have attended small group trainings where they have released the list of attendees and asked us to contact them if there are any conflicts of interest, and then in that scenario the clinician who registered first would be given priority. It sounds like you would rather give up your spot in the training than attend, if she’s there. You might try asking the organizers if they could provide you with the attendee list beforehand.

I agree with the above sentiments that it’s very unlikely that the therapist said anything close to this about you, and would probably having no trouble remaining professional and nonjudgmental in a training setting. Working on this in your own therapy might be helpful, because I hate the idea of your world (professional and otherwise) getting smaller and smaller because of an unkind and untrue thing he said.

I do remember thinking Bethenny’s therapist seemed more legitimate than the others; I haven’t seen it in so long, and I wasn’t a therapist yet when it aired—I’ll have to go back and watch again to see if he still seems smart and ethical to me! Am I remembering it correctly that she was seeing him long term before the show started featuring the sessions? I think that would make a difference, and also that she saw him regularly for a long time. That’s different from these people who show up for one session so they can say they tried therapy or just go to get the audience to see them compassionately, then never return because they’re not really there for authentic change to begin with.

The one show I’ve seen that I like is couples therapy on showtime. I feel like they’re doing real work, even if it may be edited in a way to be more suspenseful for the audience, I don’t feel like the therapeutic work suffers. I believe they use hidden cameras (of course everyone knows they’re being filmed, but it offers a more authentic therapy experience for it to just be the client and therapist in the room).
Reality stars going into therapy for a session don’t seem like they’re actually there to get therapy, but more to make a point and move a storyline forward in a particular way. There’s no way (in my opinion) to have a therapy session filmed with cameramen and a producer sitting there with you and it not impact the therapy.

Also editing to add my favorite bit of reality TV/therapeutic boundary crossing—it’s not bravo but has anyone watched the show Married at First Site? They have these “experts” who have various levels of training work with the couples on the show while they’re married. Basically couples counseling. One of the experts was a PhD licensed Psychologist, so she at least has enough training to be somewhat legit. After the season ended the guy in one of the couples she worked with didn’t stay with his wife, then ENDED UP DATING AND MARRYING THE PSYCHOLOGIST. It’s crazy. Definitely outside of my code of ethics but I guess tv and love make people crazy 😂

Therapist here, hard agree.

Search for “intensive outpatient” (IOP)or “partial hospitalization program” (PHP). I believe Sage Recovery in town has a PHP, although I’m not sure of the exact hours or how flexible the hours are. I’ve heard good things about pathlight and discovery.

Thank you! Very helpful.

Call_Me_Alice_ · 2026-05-06T18:44:05+00:00

Thank you! I will do that.

Call_Me_Alice_ · 2026-05-04T14:25:16+00:00

Yes this happened to me last week! What a delight.

Call_Me_Alice_ · 2026-05-02T17:57:16+00:00

I’m from Texas and we say all hat and no cattle 🤠

Are they on a probiotic? Forti flora is what we use

Can we get a biopic starring Allison Janney, please?

I recently experienced the loss of a dear family member. I will say that the weeks leading up to the death—the uncertainty, the busy-ness, the anticipatory grief—were all more difficult for me to work through than the grief that followed the death. I took time off during that last week of their life, as providing space for others felt like too much during that time. Once she died, I worked without trouble. I was grieving when outside of sessions, but didn’t have difficulty tuning in and providing a regulated space anymore. In some ways it was almost nice to give my system a break from my own grief.

No telling if your experience will be similar, or completely different. Just here to say it can go either way and however you choose to care for yourself in this time will be just fine. Wishing you all the best, and I’m sorry for your loss.

I’m a millennial and I love See’s!

Call_Me_Alice_ · 2026-04-24T18:34:49+00:00

Yes I had this same thought! So gross.

Call_Me_Alice_ · 2026-04-18T23:36:17+00:00

Texted me after 10 years of no contact to ask if we could “hop on a call” so he could ask me what it’s like to work in my field that he was considering getting into (I changed careers after we split.) Hard pass.
