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.

- Candid therapy talk with heart and humor
- Pop culture deep dives with a mental health lens

Don’t Say It 3 Times! Revisiting Beetlejuice, the Cult Classic
Send us a Text Message we would love to hear what you thought of the show.
In this episode of Wicked Psychotherapists, Tanya and Erin venture into the bizarre, iconic world of Beetlejuice (1988), Tim Burton’s cult classic starring Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, Catherine O’Hara, Alec Baldwin, and Geena Davis.
They dive deep into the film’s eccentric charm, unpacking the psychological and intergenerational themes hidden beneath its quirky, dark humor. From the symbolism of the Maitlands’ home and the absurd bureaucracy of the afterlife to reflections on family dynamics, depression, identity, and personal struggle, this episode explores why Beetlejuice still resonates decades later.
With a mix of nostalgia, pop-culture commentary, and therapist insight, Tanya and Erin also speculate on what a sequel could hold and why characters like Lydia Deetz and Delia Deetz remain so psychologically compelling.
Whether you’re revisiting this spooky favorite or watching it through a mental-health lens for the first time, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on a film that’s far deeper than it appears.
Tune in for a fun, thoughtful discussion that will make you see Beetlejuice in a whole new way — just don’t say his name three times.
