Welcome to the B Spot! A place to talk about life that's almost therapy but not quite therapy. Over the past 18 years as a licensed therapist, I've noticed that issues like depression, anxiety, addiction, relationships, parenting, teens, screens, and many other symptoms of being human come up over and over again in a variety of ways. Come rejoice in being human! I won't pretend to have all the answers, but I do understand some things and feel compelled to share them with you! The B Spot is also a place for you to bring your issues to be discussed. A counseling perspective when you don't have time or money to see a counselor. So, come join me at the B Spot and let's talk about it!

Topics Not Tenets: Impact of Politics & Religion
I'm Brian Heller and welcome to the B Spot! Join me for a discussion about these two taboo topics we are trained not to talk about. This is NOT political or religious, but rather a rational look at how and why we are so uncomfortable talking about both of these topics even though they are so influential in our lives. Let's desensitize and let's talk about it!
