28:41Now PlayingSome patients say they went to therapy for help—but left feeling judged, dismissed, or even harmed by political bias. Dr. Phil investigates the growing concern that therapists and psychology educators are allowing personal agendas to influence treatment.
You’ll hear from Claire, an 18-year-old who says her therapist’s post-session political outburst pushed her to cut ties during a critical moment. Dana, a mother, claims a therapist’s social justice stance deepened the rift with her daughter in just three sessions. Dr. Phil also speaks with Soad, a licensed therapist who openly promotes her conservative views and insists clients know where she stands before they begin. Megan, a clinical counselor, says cancel culture came for her after sharing her political beliefs online. And Dr. Hartz, founder of the Open Therapy Institute, joins to discuss the movement to remove ideological bias from mental health care nationwide.
Should patients have to navigate politics in the therapist’s chair? And what happens when trust breaks down? Dr. Phil gets answers.
