Pop psychology is not psychology.
Pop psychology simplifies, generalizes, and often sells quick fixes—catchy slogans, listicles, and “one-size-fits-all” advice. It can be entertaining, even motivating, but it isn’t the same as the science of psychology.

Psychology, as a discipline, is built on research, evidence, and critical thinking. It’s about understanding behavior, cognition, and emotion in all their complexity—not reducing them to clichés.

So while pop psychology might spark curiosity, real psychology requires depth, nuance, and humility.

There’s a quiet heaviness that comes with being a therapist — a weight that settles in places unseen. We sit with grief that is not ours, hold pain we do not own, and bear witness to suffering that cannot always be soothed. Each story shared, each silence filled with unspoken wounds, becomes part of the space we carry within us.

We are trained to listen, to guide, to hold space without judgment. But we are also human. The echo of someone’s trauma can follow us home. The quiet desperation behind a smile, the suppressed sob in a “thank you,” the unrelenting ache of those we cannot save — these linger.

The weight is not just in what we hear, but in what we hold back: our own emotions, our own struggles, our own need to be seen. We carry this dual responsibility — to be steady and present for others, and to navigate our own inner world in silence.
