Meredith is opening up about her unfortunate experience with domestic and sexual abuse. People who have experienced such trauma often don’t have a healthy sense of emotional and physical boundaries. I honestly feel that this “therapist” is taking advantage of Mere’s vulnerability. This “therapist” is giving grooming/ culty vibes. One of the first things that was taught at university is that the therapist needs to cultivate clear boundaries between the therapist and client. I’m really concerned for Meredith and the potential outcome of this relationship

[christinafedderke]

Jordan and McKay did a reaction video to this as well that is really good. Jordan is a licensed therapist, so it was nice to get her take on things. This is a really weird dynamic and definitely gives me the ick!

[prixx]

Im a therapist and the inevitable part of my role is that we end up, whether consciously or not, taking on many personal-adjacent relationships. Im aware (and so humbled) that for so many of my clients, I'm friend-adjacent or parent-adjacent, etc because it fills an empty/deprived space for them and I think its deeply powerful and healing for them to have that. HOWEVER, it is incumbent on me to lay out healthy boundaries that help to empower them and mitigate the transference that happens emotionally and psychologically. This can be so easily abused by the therapist as its now a power dynamic at play. Its so complicated, and thats why where I live we have requirements to work with our own therapist and/or a clinical supervisor who we can discuss these matters with to prevent boundary violations and unhealthy attachments. Im observing some concerning things with this counsellor, I wonder what its like off-camera...

[CurvyNerd]

I am a licensed clinical medical health counselor and I have to abide by the ACA code of ethics. I have done research and can find no credentialing on Britain. My theory is that she does not actually have true credentialing and I could be wrong, but we are told not to cross these type of boundaries so that makes me believe that she might have a doctorate in crisis and trauma, but no actual license to be a therapis. That touching, etc. is disturbing to me.

[MyEsperanza]

As someone with graduate level education, this is absolutely inappropriate of the “counselor” (using quotations because I’m not sure what her actual qualifications are) in so many ways. This behavior is highly concerning

[loveleyeyes]

The level of over-adoring eye contact alone is staggering, it feels like watching a very private moment between lovers (this is coming from someone who has been part of over a hundred wedding day "first looks") so intimate moments don't make me uncomfortable in the slightest.

My major ick with this is the infantilization vibes and lack of boundaries. There is nothing professional at all about this woman's demeanor or language which leads me to assume she is unlicensed churchEven if she is saying all the right buzz words, there is something very off about this woman.

[sweetstacks]

I'm not invalidating Brit's sexual abuse and being used in childhood sex abuse material.

But it makes me feel extremely uncomfortable and gross when people, especially therapists -- or any medical professional -- use "child pornography" instead of CSAM or CSEM. Pornography has a very specific meaning. It's meant to titillate and arouse, and using that in conjunction with children is disgusting.

Of course, there are people that don't make that connection (which is a huge problem in of itself) because it's been normalized as a phrase. I wish more people would adopt the use of CSAM/CSEM instead of CP.

I’m so glad you’re covering this, I wanted to understand this situation more and I’ve been binging your content!

Also want to say thank you for covering these topics as a compassionate non-extremist Christian. I’m an atheist and have never been involved in organized religion, so I find it super valuable and interesting to hear your perspective

[ReadingWheNeva]

As a lover of Jesus, her saying “I’m not a number on a scale. I’m not a number on a screen. My worth is in Jesus” also brought me to immediate tears😭😭

[naseliza]

Another strange thing that I haven’t seen anyone point out, is how Britain says she has kids in their 20s, like Mere is…it’s definitely weird to be hanging out/being this close to someone who’s close in age to your children.

[vapiddreamscape]

she left a comment on Jordan and McKay's video that unfortunately tells me she's really dug in. i wasnt aware of her before this but the vibes are AWFUL and i hope Meredith is safer than we all think

[baby.yogurt]

for anyone else who isn't super familiar with Meredith, I used to watch her videos constantly back when she was at her peak on here, when I was in middle school, and it's very obvious to me that her demeanor has changed a ton. I'm noticing that the way she's talking and acting appears to be more juvenile than i've ever seen her act, which could totally be a misperception on my part, but I couldn't stop noticing it. maybe it means nothing, but it just makes me wonder, like you said B, if she's clinging to this youthful attitude because of what she's been through. in which case, she would still be in a very vulnerable state emotionally, which would make this even more concerning

[serenalee]

As someone with a Master’s degree in school counseling and considering pursuing a clinical mental health counseling license, the wild lack of boundaries is startling at the least. I am also so curious why a clinician would allow something like this to be posted, because from what I am seeing this would be a massive red flag to any board or licensure program. Keeping boundaries with clients is literally rule number one, it’s the basis of a healthy counseling relationship, and I feel like this would be good evidence to have a license suspended or revoked. At the end of the day, I hope they are both okay, because this dynamic seems unhealthy for everyone involved.

[kelseysmith]

As someone who went through similar things as Meredith, if a councilor/ psychologist/ medical professional acted like this in any way to me this would have been so weird. My family and friends were my source of comfort. And even then, I didn't want to be comforted I was numb and hollow from the shock of what had happened and the shock of leaving the life I thought I had built. I am now a completely different person, I have myself back, I have joy and true genuine connections with people. Professionals should stay professional. As a British person her accent also seems off. This whole vibe is off. The one thing I learnt going through what I did is to trust my gut feeling, and my gut feeling says this is off. Edit; I don't think Meredith is off, and I genuinely empathise with her. I am uncomfortable with the relationship being displayed.

“I don’t know what the beach thing is; I don’t know the connection; I don’t know the fascination.” had me loling

[Frazzledvirgo]

My win for the week is I finally got a job interview after being a stay at home mom and then same for my bonus kids! It’s not in my field ( librarian) but I’m happy as it’s in a vets office!

Ok Meredith’s video!? Was THE most bizarre thing I’ve seen probably ever seen on YouTube!! Idk what the therapist’s credentials are? I don’t think they’re real! She seems fake! I’ve been in lots of therapy and I’ve never frolicked on the beach with her nor looked deeply in her eyes? Nor gave her kisses on the cheek!! This we cheesy and inappropriate and she looks brainwashed by this lady and Meredith still seems horribly sad!! With the motive of Meredith’s video at the end being a pro life message yes lots to unpack here !!!!

[KC-xfzu]

Is it just me or is she going in and out of a british accent?

[tuesdayjanae]

The intro of the video made me think she was coming out as a lesbian 😅

[heyjude]

ok i’m sorry if i’m wrong but like.. that lady is trying to fake an accent right? it is so inconsistent…

[TheMaristocracy]

I have absolutely no experience in counseling other than the counseling I have gone through as a patient/client, but based on THAT experience this seems... so inappropriate.
