  • Love this podcast

    Doing great work with dysnfunctional or incredible situations. Ghecko, if you’re reading this, I really appreciate that you are able to listen and talk with callers. I am only going to give you 4 stars as I disagree with how you handled the 24 yo lady from Edmonton on 3 August 2026.

  • Real fun, sometimes serious, always either interesting, hilarious or both. The host is in fact a REAL fake Gecko Therapist, and quite good at it. Hope he comes to Finland!! ❤️ I must call him some day!! Maybe tomorrow, maybe never, but definitely some day! ❤️

  • Jose didn’t consent to posting his call

    You need to take down Jose’s call. He did not consent to you posting that and was clearly distressed by you posting the call. You are better than this Therapy Gecko. You are supposed to help people.
