Being A Genuine Therapist: "It's Just Fucking Therapy"

F*ck The Rules

Hiatus Replay!
Season 3 Episode 9
Original air date: 03/13/2023
My guest, Kristie Fuller, is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida. I found her account on Instagram, and it was sweary love at first read of her material she was posting. Kristie is putting herself out there to be her authentic self as a therapist. This means going against what most of us were taught in grad school of doing it old school with suit and tie.
Kristie and I discuss our experiences in bringing authenticity to our careers and our clients. And let the F-bombs fly!

Kristie Fuller is a practicing LMHC via telehealth for clients in Florida, by being her sweary genuine self: " I help people who are intimidated by stuffy, bored, tired, and traditional style therapy. It's just fuckin' therapy, right? Why can't it be more direct, more brash, real, down to earth, and genuine without all the bullshit?

I specialize in working with adults who are ready to deepen their awareness of their internal landscape, so that they can understand who they are, what they are thinking and feeling, and how those interact to create behaviors.

My practice is welcoming to everyone looking for someone who is dedicated to creating an environment that is inclusive, diverse, LGBT friendly, sex-positive and neurodivergent-affirming. My clients enjoy working with me because I create a safe space for them to be truly their authentic self. "
