Über diesen Titel

 In this sit.discover.change podcast episode, Gary (a counsellor) and Jon explore the hidden reasons people avoid counselling — from deep shame and fear of judgment to pride and the belief that “therapy is only for the weak.” Jon shares what it was like to walk to his first session, testing the waters with “safer” topics before daring to speak about what really brought him there.

They talk about internal battles, banned thoughts, and the strange tension of paying to share things you’d rather keep hidden. They also unpack how church and Christian culture can add extra pressure to look “sorted,” why so many people wear an “I’m better than you” mask, and how that fuels loneliness and isolation.

As Gary and Jon reflect on mirrors, masks, and the hope of being truly known, they show that healing isn’t about becoming “perfect” or fully “fixed,” but about being less alone with what you carry and a little kinder to yourself along the way.
