About this episode
In these counseling sessions, Sven first talks with Reggie, whose father has weaponized religion against him and left him feeling rejected. He realizes that his parents can't possibly make him fall in love with their religion if it's -- and they --are telling him he's evil. In the second half of the episode, Sven counsels Allison, who has discovered that her entire reality was a lie. The birth of her son makes her determined not to hurt him in the way her mother hurt her. Taught to hate herself, Allison must decide which is worse: The abusive parent, or the other parent that let it happen? Please listen in! Explicit content.
