Why Anxiety & Depression May Not Be What You Think | Chris Wells

What if anxiety and depression aren’t problems to eliminate — but signals pointing toward healing? In this episode of Behind the Practice, Katie Brinkley sits down with psychotherapist Chris Wells to explore a radically different perspective on mental health. Chris shares why he rejects pathologizing emotional distress, how psychotherapy can become “soul healing,” and why many symptoms we fear may actually be attempts by the psyche to restore balance. The conversation dives into developmental psychology, trauma, psychedelic-assisted therapy, spiritual integration, and the idea that human beings are born whole — not broken. Chris also explains why curiosity, not suppression, may be the key to deeper healing. This episode is for anyone questioning traditional mental health models, exploring personal growth, or searching for a more compassionate way to understand emotional pain. ----------------------------------------
