A proposito di questo titolo

Ever left therapy thinking, “Can you just tell me what to do?”

You’re not alone—and you’re not wrong for wanting that.


In this episode of MetaTherapy, we unpack why therapists often refuse to give direct advice, why that can feel frustrating or unhelpful, and what’s actually happening beneath the surface of those conversations.

We’ll talk about:

  • The fundamental difference between advice and therapeutic support

  • How advice can accidentally undermine agency and long-term change

  • What therapists are trained to do instead (and why it works)

  • How to ask for clarity in therapy without outsourcing your life

If you’ve ever wondered whether a therapist’s refusal to “just tell you” is a red flag—or part of the work—this episode is for you.
