  • Summer house

    Ciarra has definitely gone over the line. It is in full nasty bully mode to amanda- yes I understand she has a right to be mad but she’s way overboard- surprised you’re supporting that behavior

  • Generally offensive and VERY rude

    Speaks down to listeners. Really believes she knows everything and has done everything. Why is Cleveland, Ohio so hilarious? Very rude. Prime example of another therapist who isn’t mentally fit to help others.

  • Not funny

    To state SSRIs are not being overprescribed is negligent. EVERYTHING is being overprescribed Statins, Ozempic etc…Maybe you qualify but soooo many people are taking these drugs who don’t meet the standard. You sound like a pharma mouth piece.
