Sister Wives Go to Therapy
A therapist’s exploration of Sister Wives, one episode at a time. In Sister Wives Go to Therapy, I examine the family dynamics, emotional undercurrents, red flags, and personal development portrayed on screen, through a clinical lens. No diagnoses, just thoughtful reflections on what happens when polygamy, patriarchy, and parentification collide in one complicated family.
