Your Bish Therapist - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I really enjoy Melissa’s clinical interpretations of my favorite Bravolebrities. She does such a great job of explaining and breaking down behaviors, patterns and where they likely come from. It really had made me more mindful of not only my own behavior, but perhaps most importantly allowed me to approach the behavior of others with more understanding and grace. That said the podcast still maintains a fun and light and positive vibe. Love My Bish Therapist!!

As someone who has been through a lot of therapy due to trauma, I find myself watching Bravo shows through different eyes than I did prior to the trauma and all of the help I’ve received. I view behaviors differently and recognize things I didn’t before. I find so much validation when I listen to YBT, and I learn from her as well. She speaks from not only education and experience, but from empathy and compassion - which is lacking in a lot of people these days. I think EVERY Bravo viewer could learn a lot listening to this podcast, I highly recommend it to everyone!!

Your bravo perspective is so unique and actually helpful in my own life. It’s not an another catty bravo pod. I’ve actually brought things that I’ve learned from you talking about bravo into my own therapy and appointments and self-work. Especially how you talk about addiction and trauma. I couldn’t say that about any other bravo pod, so thank you for that! Also, love the shorts. I don’t know you but I’m rooting for you health-wise like I do know you and you’re such inspiration. Keep up the good work! But also, if you’re too tired some days, that’s okay too :)

This podcast is the most fun way to learn about psychological concepts through the lens of Bravo and other reality shows. I love her perspective on everything, she is an empowered and empowering woman and therapist. And really enjoying the secret lives of Mormon wives episode recaps, masters level stuff here!

As a PhD candidate in Clinical Psychology who loves pop culture and enjoys reality television, I was very excited to find this podcast. While there are several red flags that have me questioning her ethics and her motives for perusing this career path, all I will say is that her constant reference to her degree followed by “so trust me” is the most concerning. Noting at the end of your podcast that they are your “opinions” and meant for “entertainment purposes only” after constantly and repeatedly referring to your degree and subject matter expertise and then promoting the audience to essentially take your opinions as facts is the definition of emotional manipulation. Not to mention, your defense of a well documented abuser and narcissist’s actions against a proven innocent woman is absolutely flabbergasting. Even before we had concrete proof, I was shocked at your dismissal of his behavior now decade+ of documented mental and emotionally abusive behavior because “he always says he’s sorry”. The patterns of an abuser are highlighted even in PSYC 2310. I cannot in good faith recommend this woman’s assessment of anything nor her podcast. It would be in my opinion that she be reported to her local board for ethics violations.
