For the person who asked about being an English major for law school-that’s actually one of the best majors you can have for law school because it gives you a lot of skills you need but sets you apart from other people in the application process!! I’m pretty sure English and philosophy were some of the highest accepted for law school
Specifically, you work on critical reading skills, interpretation of written text, forming an argument, communications. All important things for your law degree. From one English Major to another: English is one of the most versatile degrees out there, but I understand how frustrating it can be for people not to realize it.
To answer Mamrie's question, no a therapist cannot have someone they know as a client. It's called a dual relationship and is discouraged in the field. I'm a therapist in training right now and I loved this episode! Keep up the good work guys! :) Also therapists don't give out advice to avoid being sued.
I had a 3.9 and graduated with honors and applied to B+ grad schools and still was denied by 6/7! Grad school is insane. Remember that you are going from being the big fish in a small pond to being in a crowd of salmon trying to swim across a flooded highway 🙃 it’s not you, friend! Some schools accept less than 10 people! 1/5 is far from over! Have hope and trust that you put your best out there and what will happen will be right for you. There is always another option. 💙
Leannuh Renee Leannuh Renee It is breaking confidentiality, if you hadn’t set the precedence in the past that it would be okay for her to acknowledge you in public. It’s an ACA standard set to protect you in case you don’t want people to know you’re in therapy.
Actual advice for English major!!! English majors have been statistically proven to do better on the LSATS then prelaw majors and because of this tend to get into better law schools. In addition, being so used to readings hundreds of pages a week and understanding complicated language makes you totally prepped for law school! (Source: I’m an English major and my university constantly talks about law school as a potential next step.)
1:59 i would say yes because the therapist would be biased and more likely to give their opinions/advice rather than providing the right questions and support in order for you to find solutions to your problems within yourself. this is why seeing a therapist can be more helpful that seeking advice from friends or family; because you get to see your situation from an outsiders perspective.
To answer the question about if you know the person before they come to you in therapy. It would be a conflict of interest if you were to see someone in therapy if you know them beforehand. I'm taking a clinical psychology class in college and we learned all about it. Love this show so much!
Dude all of these questions pertain to my life right now. Thanks for stalking me Mace🙄 now I have to follow your advice and do the right thing. Time to get outta bed!!!
I was looking for a good joke about therapy but it just reminded me that I actually feel like I should get back to it so thank you, this video had good advices indeed !
That’s very true, not all rejections are bad, because it will always work out better in the end, it was true for me, I hated my old job after literally being there for two days and there wasn’t any hours for me so they had to let me go. I was super depressed about it until I tried for a new job, aced my interview and now I love my new job.
Where I live in Canada, if you know your therapist before therapy they can't be your therapist unless you go through this exs tensile process of giving consent and such. Also, my best friend was going to have the same therapist as me and then found out that we were friends and wasn't allowed to take her on as a client anymore.
Not a therapist but a Social worker and we have similar code of ethics. If a therapist knows who you are or is up to them to see whether or not your relationship will prohibit the therapeutic relationship. Most therapist don’t because of the ethical dilemma of dual relationships.
To answer your question, yes, in most cases, it would be unethical for a therapist to take you on as a client if they already know you. The “in most cases” part refers to situations where this could be different depending on factors like the degree of your relationship (big difference between working with your bestie than Susan from that 1 hot yoga class you went to...although Susan has probably seen some shit) or where you live (i.e.: small town/remote area where you don’t have access to enough therapists so it then becomes more unethical to deny treatment because you don’t have another referral to provide and also can’t really avoid knowing a lot of the people in the area because they are the only people in the area lol). If you are referring to celebrity status, though, I think that would have to be a conversation between you and your potential therapist about how comfortable the two of you are with that and, assuming your therapist isn’t a huge fangirl or something, they should be able to respect those boundaries and acknowledge that, while there is a lot they know from you as an entertainment personality portrayed in the media, they don’t actually know the person that is sitting before them yet and the focus should be on that relationship and the new information that you introduce in session, not what fresh hot shit TMZ pumps out this week! 😊
All my coworkers are women that are 60+ and I'm in my 20s. There is a day shift and a night shift, the day-shift has 3 other employees and the nigh-shift has like 10. I work the day shift. I was almost immediately adopted by the day-shift crew as their work-niece/daughter. As it turned out, there is a MAJOR cliquishness that I wasn't aware of between shifts (I am one of 2 workers that do not do both shifts) but was somehow accepted into the "popular" group and I am now privy to gossip etc. (nothing that serious really, just hilarious cranky rocking-chair-on-the-porch type of gossip...again these ladies are basically all retirees). I have attended 2 non-work functions in the 10 months I've been employed there and have had a great time even though it was definitely out of the norm for me; now I know that I socialize better with grannies than co-workers my own age. ...so I'm going to bingo next friday. That is my life.
Just to answer Mamrie's question about a therapist taking on a client they know, you are correct. If a therapist knows someone on a personal level they cannot see them as a client because that is a conflict of interest and could lead to biases during therapy.
To answer your question, therapists are meant to avoid "dual relationships" with clients. So, a therapist should not provide services to a friend, ex-partner, or relative, for example. If the client is an acquaintance, it would be decided on a case-by-case basis.
Not sure if you were actually interested, but since I am currently in graduate school for Psychology, if a therapist has a previous relationship with a client (be it romantic, friend, family, etc.) it is unethical to treat them if the therapist can't remain objective. You can still see them, but you have to make sure it doesn't affect how you treat and interact with them because the primary goal is to ensure the client's well-being. Also we would avoud seeing you outside of therapy unless you interact first for much the same reasoning.
I'm in grad school four counseling psych, so to answer Mamrie's question: Yes, we can't see you if we know you/have any kind of relationship with you outside of therapy. Also, please, please, please no therapranks.
"Because I was lying to her" too real, that is probably the number 1 reason I haven't gone to therapy (except when I found out I have ADHD). Because I am WAY TOO FULL OF SHIT
As a therapist, y’all just cracked me up. Also, the answer to your question... if you do know someone personally, you cannot be their therapist as it is a “conflict of interest” and you can’t have a professional relationship along with a personal relationship. Lots of different reasons why, but just know it’s a big no-no. Also, if we see you in person and you initiate a hello, we can say hello but we are technically not to talk about your therapy or treatment in public due to the possibility of others listening to your treatment and diagnoses. Don’t want any HIPAA violations... We usually say hello and that it’s nice to see you, and go about our ways.
#TBT to Wispy, the beautifully hideous dog Mamrie was too slow to adopt, but got a pillow of instead: 78.media.tumblr.com/a4ab4d1c0e98ac80c61f29e85a0d99fa/tumblr_mwmotvsi8N1sernuzo1_500.jpg
I think it would be like,jury duty because then the opinions from your therapist would be biased and may have preconceived notions. You should always try to get a therapist who is professional but still acts human and does not seem like they are always over analyzing everything you say. Also, there is no clashing between the two of you and you should not feel like they are judging you when you open up to them. That is just personality based, of course they should have all the legal means that make them a therapist
"I stopped seeing a therapist 'cause I was just lying to her" Ahhh. The true universal experience.
If that ain't me I don't know what is :'D
oh man so true it hurts...
so glad this is the top comment lmao
Omg Grace singing at the beginning was adorable 😭😍
the 'boo' after mamrie makes a bad joke will never get old, i laugh everytime

My therapist has acknowledged me in public when I didn’t see her in the same coffee shop I was in. Should I have her arrested?
Leannuh Renee Leannuh Renee It is breaking confidentiality, if you hadn’t set the precedence in the past that it would be okay for her to acknowledge you in public. It’s an ACA standard set to protect you in case you don’t want people to know you’re in therapy.
Definitely. We don't let people break the law around here.
@@ThisMightGet What about that episode where you broke all the laws?

Wow. This episode actually posted on my monthly therapy appointment day!! “Next on This Might Get.... This Might Get Psychic!” Lol love you guys.
Looks like you don't need that appointment anymore. Just saved you some money.

Whoever edits these needs a raise. Grace and Mamrie are hilarious (as always), but the editing just takes it to the next level lol

Marion D. You were looking for a good joke about therapy but you couldn’t find one. How do you feel about that?
Grace and Mamrie's advice is the only advice we ever really need. :)

To help with sleep totally get a smart watch that tracks sleep. Changed my life.
That’s very true, not all rejections are bad, because it will always work out better in the end, it was true for me, I hated my old job after literally being there for two days and there wasn’t any hours for me so they had to let me go.

And with this, my day (or night actually) instantly got better. :D
The background music playing throughout this video was really chill
Cause we're just super chill people. Can't you tell?
Grace is literally a musical genius 😂
nelsonmachupa yes ofc
'fluff a duck' , 'when I was a young girl' and 'big butt, so what' are classics
Niharika Sashidhar “don’t fluff a duck, you just look at a duck, you dirty schmuck *bing*”
nelsonmachupa that *bing* is the best part 😂
I have never been happier to add something to my morning routine
Mamrie's face when Grace doesn't understand her joke... priceless
I for real loooove when y'all call out the chomp!!

Honestly the best part of my afternoons is relaxing and watching you guys.

“i forget that they’re humans” me too grace, me too
This is my new favourite channel, just binged it all I love you guys! You're both so funny, keep smashing it

Thanks Grace and Mamrie
This is quickly becoming my new favourite channel on youtube...love from Italy 😊
Yay! Make sure to share us around!

Love waking up in the morning to you guys!
morning gals, i have cramp in my foot, WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE x
Thank God 🙌
I am a therapist. If a therapist already knows you then it would be unethical to see you as a client. Also, thanks for talking about this! ;)
Good question about making friends! There's a great podcast Make New Friends which talks all about it! Recommended!!!!
„I want you to be happy.“ 😂😂
WISPY IS ICONIC
Not sure if you were actually interested, but since I am currently in graduate school for Psychology, if a therapist has a previous relationship with a client (be it romantic, friend, family, etc.) it is unethical to treat them if the therapist can't remain objective.

Hello from Slovenia 🇸🇮
SHOCKED they didn't plug their rejection ep.
As a therapist, y’all just cracked me up.

If my therapist saw me in public, he'd probably run the other direction 😭
Love u guy and u guy look snatched get it ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Heart surgeon Dr. Hart

More Beanz pls
There's never enough Beanz. We apologize.
I triple dog dare y’all to do an episode on Beanz fashion✨ / dog fashion show ✨✨✨✨
Am I the only one that is always expecting them to be like “Hello I’m Grace Helbig. If you don’t know, now you know” & “im Mamrie HARRRRRRT”
I have an uncle who is a therapist for teens... I can’t imagine all the stress that accumulates 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
7:31 Melissa McCarthy vibes.
I threw up in the middle of the airport and some lady looked like she was coming over to help me but then she just left
Grace is ME
damn happy hour was really on grace's mind
3 seconds in and I’m already cheesin’ so hard lol
I googled my therapist and discovered she has an IMDb and has been in around a dozen tv shows and movies
To quote Mamrie Hart herself, embarrassing/bad farts is an oxymoron. You should own it, own it, own it
