Wicked Psychotherapists
What do therapy, 80s and 90s nostalgia, and today’s hottest shows and movies have in common?
Tanya Dos Santos and Erin Gray—two licensed psychotherapists with a wicked New England twist—are here to spill the tea and the therapeutic insights.
On The Wicked Psychotherapists Podcast, Tanya and Erin dive into the mental health topics that matter most—anxiety, identity, burnout, self-worth, relationships, and resilience—all while connecting them to the TV shows and movies we grew up with and binge today.
Whether you’re reliving the rad classics of the ’80s and ’90s or breaking down today’s buzziest series and films, this podcast bridges pop culture with emotional well-being in a way that’s smart, entertaining, and refreshingly real.
Expect:
- Candid therapy talk with heart and humor
- Pop culture deep dives with a mental health lens
- A dose of nostalgia, a dash of sass, and a lot of wisdom
