The therapy brothers are experienced, and extremely supportive in a variety of conversations with men and women on both sides of addiction and betrayal. I love these guys and appreciate their capacity to address the many stages of change, and controversial issues.

In episode 393, the hosts explore one theme from David Deida's book. While they highlight one theme, it’s important to recognize that there are many other themes in the book that are problematic. Deida’s work has been widely critiqued for promoting a disturbing view of women: namely that they are sexually manipulative, inherently chaotic and emotional, and need to be managed and contained. As therapists working in this space, they have a responsibility to acknowledge these problematic themes and explain the harm they cause. They didn’t do that. I have attempted to reach out to the hosts regarding these concerns. Listeners should approach the content with discernment, seeking resources that prioritize mutual respect, emotional safety, and true relational healing. It’s unfortunate that the hosts haven chosen to promote this book knowing the content, especially when numerous other resources are available that encourage groundedness and self-awareness without degrading women.

I’ve been listening to Therapy Brothers nonstop, and I can’t recommend it enough! Tyler and Brennan have such valuable and practical advice that genuinely helps with personal growth, I’ve had to switch up my lifestyle because with your guys wise words and compassion I love myself more and truly want to change for myself. This is all because of you guys.

It’s not the muffins we’re not stupid!! 🤣

Gentlemen- I just want to say thank you so much for your vulnerability, your heart and your wisdom and for doing this for everyone in the world! What a priceless gift! You are both doing the Lords work in my opinion and with such kindness and wisdom and heart! Love you guys!!

Thank you Tyler for your episode on integrity. It really resonated with me because I am a small business owner and I have tried hard to build my business on integrity, honesty and seeing the value in and worth in every person. This was a great reminder on how to live a meaningful life!

I am grateful for your advice, insight, honesty, explanations, patience, Christ-like love and selfless service. You both make a difference. You have both given me strength when I have needed it most.

I have been listening on and off for about 2.5 years since I discovered this podcast during my second go-around in trying to survive my husband’s addiction, and I have learned so much. It helped push me and us toward an actual road to recovery. When I learned just a week ago that the progress was made only on my end and I am again at a crossroads, I found some alone time to tune back in, and caller Nicole’s episode #382 was so very relatable and clarifying for me. Thank you Nicole for being so brave to call in- I’m with you sister. And thank you Tyler and Brannon for your always compassionate and empowering advice. I started this journey 7 years ago and I read everything I could get my hands on and so much of it was toxic, especially in the Christian world which was devastating to me. As soon as I heard you two speak, though, the truth of what you were saying rang true in my soul. Thank you for doing this work and being a lifeline for so many people- both the betrayers and the betrayed.

These counselors know their stuff. They see things that other counselors miss. They have emotional intuition and deep perception into all human interactions

It is amazing what Tyler and Brannon can do with only an hour of time and essentially no prep with the caller beforehand. I love listening to the show even when I can’t totally relate to the caller because T & B provide therapeutic advice that I can apply to my own situation. Many of the episodes deal with betrayal trauma and I appreciate hearing the perspectives of both the betraying and the betrayed partners to increase my empathy and understanding of both situations. This is hard heavy stuff and the Therapy Brothers help get to the root of the issue and provide concrete next-steps towards healing and recovery. Thanks guys for all you do!

This podcast has taught me the meaning of intentional living. Tyler and Brannon bring on incredible guests and promote vulnerability and honesty, which I have learned are foundational aspects of true recovery. I’ve learned to run from my emotional discomforts for years, which has led to unwanted behaviors. But these episodes often remind me the importance of facing discomfort head-on, and that recovery comes through vulnerability and directly confronting painful emotions.

Episode #382 shout out to Nicole, My heart is with you Nicole. I have listened to this episode more than once. Thank you for being brave and owning your story and sharing on this podcast. I resonated with you being in such a hard place, me too. Keep doing your work, I’d love to hear a update on your situation so come back on the podcast again. Hugs and strength to you for choosing to step into the work with two feet. I’m on your team Nicole. Thank you both Tyler and Brannon great work!

Thank you Brandon and Tyler. This podcast has helped me to understand the underlying causes of my husband’s infidelity and integrity deficit and stop blaming myself. It has also help me to detach from an unhealthy relationship and begin to move forward in my own truth. I heard so much of my own story in this callers description of her struggle to remain married and keep her family together. Like her, I tried to manage and control the recovery which didn’t allow my husband to feel the consequences of his actions and inactions. I was ruled by fear of rejection and false hope from empty promises “to do anything”. I’m finally choosing to live values that my adult children can be proud of. Thank you to the brave callers that have the courage to share their story and seek help.

I just really wanted to thank you both . This podcast is the best podcast I ever heard of and I am an avid listener to many . You guys are so on point , so helpful, so knowledgeable about the subject, only someone that has gone through this all can be so assertive. I found you guys while searching for how to understand sexual addiction. Your episode 58 should be heard by everyone and anyone. Another one I loved and wanted to thank Jessy for his vulnerability was number 379 , that has helped my decision more than I can tell you . I am going through so much and you have helped me understand my husband’s addiction while keeping my decision firm . I scheduled a call with you , but I chickened out last minute and I do regret it … I will Try again. Thank you for all you do .

You guys totally nailed it on episode #381, walking the caller through how to get curious instead of defensive, how to simultaneously have empathy and still stand in true masculinity with boundaries instead of resorting to inauthentic Mr Nice Guy tactics or being a jerk. I appreciated your understanding and explanation of how a wife feels used and unseen (and therefore unsafe) when the husband is incapable or unwilling to notice or care whether or not she’s a willing participant in the bedroom, and how damaging that can be when he’s oblivious. It was a very validating discussion, thanks for digging deep on this one.

So thankful for this podcast. Wish I would have found sooner. Recommend for anyone in a marriage with repeated betrayals and abuse, and struggling to know when enough is enough. It has helped me so much.

Brannon and Tyler have been a huge help in me navigating the waters of my separation from my wife due to my poor coping behaviors related to my addiction. They have also helped me to better understand how true masculinity looks and how that actually creates safety for me and my family. Regardless of the outcome of my separation, following their advice has improved my mental health around the anxieties associated with those potential outcomes, given me peace with either outcome, and my relationship with my wife has actually been improving! Thank you Tyler and Brannon!

It’s very helpful to hear listeners working through their problems in real time, lots of wisdom for every circumstance.

Hands down the best recovery podcast available! Listening to the last 2 episodes, Brian and Andy, I see you guys, I don’t know you guys, but in a real sense I do know you, because I was you! Your loved and seen and accepted my brothers! We are to walk in the new life that God has so graciously given us, accept that new life, embrace it, your faults and all and follow Christ! Know who you are, because you are infinitely loved and wanted!

Love this podcast. So helpful

This episode really helped remind me to be kind to myself, both myself now, and to my younger self. My own path of recovery has been a VERY rocky path where I’ve often felt terrible about myself and felt very alone and stuck. Fear and shame have been a ball and chain way too often. Thank you Patrick for sharing your story and progress. And thank you Patrick Bros for your insights. I came away feeling a greater love and empathy for myself that is a huge key to my hope for personal recovery.

I’ve been meaning to write a review for a while, and Tyler’s touching episode on making amends reminded me. I am the betrayed spouse, and I’ve subscribed to a dozen podcasts dealing with infidelity. However, the Therapy Brothers are my favorite. Brandon & Tyler are phenomenal together. These men just “get it”. I feel so validated when I listen to them. I wish my husband would listen, too. I think he would appreciate the caring, nonjudgmental manner in which Tyler & Brandon speak to unfaithful partners. If you’re looking for actionable advice in healing yourself and your marriage, I highly recommend the Therapy Brothers podcast. I look forward to every episode. Thank you, Tyler & Brandon, for putting your heart & soul into helping couples through this traumatic experience.

This episode filled in so many blanks for me, THANK YOU! I started my recovery in December of 2017 after many decades of using pornography. I have learned so much over the years but as we all know, we should all continue to learn. The self sabotage discussed has been my experience for some time. Bewildered as to what was I engaging in unwanted behaviors, having no desire to do so, but I was, so frustrating. This episode gave me some clarity, direction and more understanding as to what has been happening in my life. I now have a definite direction that I will now be pursuing. Thank you to Patrick and the two of you for putting out an amazing podcast that helps so many!! Bob

I just listened to Episode 70. You guys do a great job overall and obviously have different relationships and sound like you and your spouses are more on the same page than me - but life isn’t as rosy and clean for many of us. The role playing you provided sounds great, but I just don’t see it realistically being beneficial when one party is already emotionally accosting the other with belittling comments and what sounds like emotional abuse. If I were to comment similar to what you suggested, the flames would fly. What do you recommend when both parties don’t play nicely and what you suggested would be met with flames?

I love to hear the work that you guys do! The conversations are always amazing and inspiring.

I hope Shea sees this because her episode was so powerful to me! I felt like I was feeling everything that she was. I cried right along with her. I can tell she’s truly trying to learn all that she can through these difficult things. Especially being torn between wanting to be close to God, yet not trusting Him because of feeling like He didn’t have your back. Thank you both for such an emotional yet helpful episode.

I have listened to these podcast and gotten on their website for different tools. I appreciate their approach and the they instill confidence in me to be man I was designed to become.

If you are going through BT and looking for good resources on going through that don’t go to these guys! They are basically telling the guy that they can be attracted to others and if they have pornography addiction; that it can be separate even if or when they recover. Load of boloney!

Tyler and Brannon are so great at talking about the hard topics. I was a guest recently and I really benefited from our conversation. I felt their love and genuine desire to help me. This podcast is such a valuable resource.

I am so grateful for you guys and your willingness to produce all of these episodes. I have listened for the last 4+ years and feel like I have received a free education. Episode #259 was one I was so grateful for that I didn't know I needed. We originally started out with Doug Weiss and his therapists, which resulted in a lot of added trauma for me in many ways and I felt very validated hearing Brannon speak out about it. Thank you guys so much, and a huge thanks to the brave callers for coming on and telling there stories, I get nuggets from every single one!

I listen to several podcasts about overcoming sexual addiction and general self-improvement, but this is my favorite. Brannon and Tyler have great perspectives from their many years of experience. But their substantial wisdom aside, I really enjoy the format of the podcast. It’s helpful when they have a guest caller on, so there can be an in-depth conversation about the situation. And the two brothers complement one another in their insights — sometimes agreeing, sometimes offering slightly different nuances in their opinions, and sometimes seeing things very differently. The two perspectives are great and are enhanced by being able to draw on shared experiences and family relationships. The often witty banter between brothers who obviously respect and love each other is also fun.

I have loved this show. It has helped me see things within myself that I can work on. Brannon and Tyler do great work in helping others without taking an approach that is shaming to those struggling with pornography.

Way too many religious references/undertones instead of strictly medical/psychological advice. I know this is not intentional, but these references as part of a treatment recommendation create quite a bit of shame in those of us sex addicts who happen to also be atheists. The message we get from this is not only do we think we are awful for the things we’ve done, but also just our underlying religious views. Please address this on your show. I would really appreciate commentary on this aspect of finding a higher power when you don’t believe in god or anything like that. Thank you

Aside from having the best intro music in the recovery podcast game, the real conversations that the Brothers have with their guests make this podcast one of the best! Real people, telling their real stories, and getting real help from two guys that know how to ask the hard questions, and how to respond with love, and wisdom. Love this podcast!

Brandon and Tyler have helped me feel known and understood while also challenging me to take a real look at my unhealthy patterns. Thanks!!

I absolutely love this podcast. I often feel like I’ve just gotten out of a therapy session when I finish an episode. I have gained a healthier view of myself, my relationships, and what I want in my life by listening. I would not be where I am in my own recovery were it not for Tyler, Brannon, and the guests here. Thank you!

I just what to thank you guys for the information you guys are putting out every few days it’s been really helpful and eye opening. Between your guys podcast and group therapy I have come a long ways in my recovery that I didn’t think was ever possible just 6 months ago. I feel like I’m finally in control of my life for the first time in about 30 years. Thank you Tyler and Brannon for helping change my life for the better. I will be forever grateful for stumbling across your guys podcast. Thank you Jo

I am still blown away by these guys. I recently listened to Brannon’s episode on sexual interdependency in marriage, and it blew me away. It challenged me to be honest rather than “caretake” my spouse and tell her what I know what she wants to hear. I’m learning that my wife gets the very best of me when I’m honest. I find myself wanting intimacy more than anything. . . Knowing and being known, interdependent and caring for each other’s heart, allowing the process to expose where we need to do our individual work. Thank you, Brannon!!

I have been listening to this podcast for about a year and a half now. Brannon and Tyler are truly experts on sexual addiction and betrayal trauma. This podcast helped kickstart my recovery and continues to be a source of strength, hope and information that is helpful to stay engaged in my recovery. Thank you so much for the work you both are doing and for helping me to start changing my life!

By far my favorite therapy podcast out there. I am always amazed at the courage each guest brings to the show, as well as the wisdom, heart, and thoughtful insight that Tyler and Brannon convey. I look forward to each new episode. - Mark

After first D day and a year and a half of trickle truth, I was beginning to loose hope that anything would help my husband out of affair fog and our marriage on the road to healing. Your podcasts were the game changer. We are still in the messy middle but on a solid recovery trajectory now, with your weekly help, getting to the heart of many issues that were just swept under the rug in the past. Thank you for doing what you do with so much heart and passion❤️

These brothers not only have great chemistry but they’ve got wonderful coaching skills and empathy for all of their guests. I learn relevant truths every time I listen. They know addiction, betrayal trauma, and recovery. Recommend it to all of my clients.

This podcast has become a part of my daily rhythm, and the rhythm of my recovery. I have yet to listen to an episode, where I have not gained personal insight from Brannon, Tyler, and those who are willing to open up on the podcast. Thank you for the opportunity for growth, and I hope you provide to the addicts and the betrayed working through the messy middle of recovery.

So grateful that these two came together! So many different topics discussed, that I wouldn’t even think I needed growth and development in. Also, so many podcasts that I have been able to share with my husband that he has appreciated as well. He better relates and understands how things are presented in the podcast. Definitely has been helpful for my marriage, and my individual faith as well! Thank you!

Truth. Clarity. Courage. Intention. Commitment. This podcast continually strengthens me to live life on life’s terms. Lots of insights into accepting reality, noticing my immature inner child and choosing to go towards my mature adult.

Love listening, and learning how to deal with self and loved ones!

I am a frequent flyer to this podcast. A part of my daily work is listening to Tyler, Brannon, and their guests. The stuff they talk about is so it’s like a bull for those working through addiction, recovery, or those just trying to live in a more whole hearted life. I highly recommend this podcast, to anyone who needs it.

Thank you Janelle for finding the courage to come on the show and be a voice for wives. I know exactly where you are. It is so hard to put yourself out there again. I remember feeling the exact same way. Like Brannon said, I think this is normal as you try to find the courage to be vulnerable & attempt to trust again. I used to really shame myself over not being able to allow any vulnerability. I could see him making attempts but it was a huge roadblock. I worked through it intensely with my therapist and then WE had to work through it with our therapist…and what do you know, we’re swimming in the deep end and it is so much better than I ever dreamed of. God is shaping both of you into the humans you were created to be, to love and be loved. Thank you so much Brannon for your insight and all the help you provide to so many people. You have been a huge help to both my husband & myself. Keep it up!

I am so grateful for this podcast. I was with a therapist for 4 years and just felt so bad about my involvement with pornography. As I listened to this podcast I felt a peace and hope as I recognized that I, as an individual, do not need to be shamed to recover. As an individual I want to and need to be true to my God and myself. Gary

I love listening to Tyler and Brannon. The episodes are so comforting to me while navigating my betrayal trauma. I really enjoyed the episode about femininity vs masculinity. It helped give me a new perspective! Thanks brothers!
