202. The Session That Made Me Question Everything I Know About Healing

202. The Session That Made Me Question Everything I Know About Healing

Author: Roger K. McFillin, Psy.D., ABPP September 25, 2025 Duration: 40:50

In this mind-bending episode, Dr. Roger McFillin shares the therapy session that shattered his understanding of how healing actually works. Originally written on his substack he feels compelled to share the entire story (with his clients permission). What started as a routine Monday evening appointment with a client overwhelmed,  ready to give up and go on psychiatric drugs became the most extraordinary 90 minutes of his career. By the end, he witnessed something that defied all explanation—and then his car did something in the parking lot that made him question reality itself. A powerful lesson in the abilities we all possess but have forgotten.


Hosted by board-certified psychologist Dr. Roger McFillin, the Radically Genuine Podcast is a direct challenge to the superficial and often ineffective narratives that dominate discussions about wellness. This isn't about quick fixes or polite self-help tropes. Instead, Dr. McFillin engages in substantive, sometimes uncomfortable dialogues that dissect how cultural trends, the fitness industry, and the mental health system itself can sometimes hinder genuine healing. You'll hear from a compelling range of voices-including survivors of adversity, clinical experts, and independent thinkers-all united by a commitment to raw truth over feel-good fiction. The conversations within this podcast deliberately avoid easy answers, focusing instead on the complex, gritty work of building authentic resilience and psychological strength. It’s for anyone who suspects that mainstream advice has failed to address the root causes of personal and societal struggle, offering a deeper, more nuanced examination of human behavior and recovery. By confronting controversial topics and institutional failings without flinching, each episode aims to provide listeners with a more honest framework for navigating life's inevitable challenges, making it a distinctly valuable voice in the health and society podcast landscape.
