Start With What Hurts
It’s the same clinical thinking that runs through the Library, now in your ears. Each episode takes one pattern you’ve felt but never quite had words for, and stays with it long enough to change something.

Every episode is written, reviewed, and clinically directed by Lisa Reidsema, LMHC, and narrated in her own approved voice.
Find your starting place
If an episode names something you’ve been carrying, the free assessment points you to the room in the Library built for it. It takes a few minutes, and it costs nothing.
Start With What Hurts is educational. It isn’t therapy, and it isn’t a substitute for care from a licensed clinician. If you’re in crisis, please reach the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline in the US, or your local emergency services.
