Practically Awake

WHY YOU SHOULD QUIT THERAPY! (and what you should do instead)

Jaclyn Proper Season 1 Episode 21

I share why traditional therapy might not always be the best path for everyone.. especially if you’ve been stuck in a loop of revisiting past traumas without making real progress. I open up about my personal journey through over 20 years of therapy and why stepping away from it was one of the most transformative decisions of my life.

💡 Here’s what we cover:

  • Why traditional talk therapy and CBT might not help if you have early life trauma or CPTSD.
  • The limitations of rehashing your past and why it could be keeping you stuck.
  • Effective alternatives like shadow work, EMDR, and somatic experiencing for deeper healing.
  • How finding a practitioner who resonates with you is more important than their credentials.
  • How bypassing the conscious mind can unlock massive breakthroughs in self-awareness and transformation.

If you’re ready to leave the past behind and step into a more empowered version of yourself, this episode is for you.
