When Help Harms

When Help Harms is a podcast exploring how harm in mental health often begins long before a law is broken.

Most therapy happens behind closed doors. That privacy makes healing possible, but it can also allow harm to go unseen and unaddressed. This show examines therapist misconduct, systemic failures in training and supervision, and power dynamics that quietly shape care.

Some episodes analyze real cases involving licensed mental health professionals. Others focus on the systems that influence accountability and protection in mental health.

This is not a takedown show.
It’s not anti-therapy.
It’s about understanding how harm can exist even when no crime occurred.

Hosted by Tia Jennings, LPC-S, a licensed therapist and clinical supervisor with over 15 years of experience in mental health.
