  • I may be impartial, but this is my favorite podcast between a comedian and a therapist, who are sisters. The show is extremely personal and filled with humor and clinical expertise. The episode covers are so funny and well executed. I always learn something new and walk away feeling like I’ve been eavesdropping on my family.

  • Two cents

    In the ocean of podcasts, My Sister’s A Therapist is in the top 5 podcasts that I listen to weekly. I hold off on listening to new episode(s) until a lull in my work day that will allow me to fully pay attention and listen to the content and conversation. I often catch myself saying “I can totally relate to that!” The lived experiences and respective careers of Virginia and Laura bring honesty, insight, integrity and humor to some rather heavy topics.
