Wicked Psychotherapists
What do therapy, ’80s and ’90s nostalgia, today’s hottest shows and movies—and a surprising number of Adam Sandler films—have in common?
Tanya Dos Santos and Erin Gray—two licensed psychotherapists with a wicked New England twist—are here to spill the tea and the therapeutic insights.
On The Wicked Psychotherapists Podcast, Tanya and Erin break down the mental health themes that matter most—anxiety, identity, burnout, self-worth, relationships, and resilience—through the lens of pop culture. From the rad classics of the ’80s and ’90s to today’s buzziest series and films, nothing is off-limits… especially when it somehow connects back to Adam Sandler.
Yes, we said it.
From revisiting old favorites to analyzing newer Sandler movies—and exploring the six degrees of separation of Adam Sandler—this podcast blends humor, nostalgia, and psychological insight in a way that’s smart, entertaining, and refreshingly real.
Whether you’re comfort-watching a childhood favorite, bingeing something new, or wondering why a goofy comedy hit you right in the feelings, we’re here to help you connect the dots between what you watch and how you feel.
Expect:
- Candid therapy talk with heart and humor
- Pop culture deep dives with a mental health lens
- ’80s, ’90s, and today’s movies and shows (yes, including lots of Adam Sandler)
- A dose of nostalgia, a dash of sass, and a lot of wisdom

I loved the ADHD show it was absolutely wonderful. I would love if you do a show on foster care and adoption. As a foster and adoptive parent I would love to hear about the positive impact on a family and people who never feel at home with their adoptive family. I know Erin we worked together. I would also love it if you talked about the need for fostering and adoption of animals. I'm a huge advocate for both. Paul Durand
