Therapist reveals the number 1 'hurt feeling' her clients have after the holidays

The holidays are when we get together with family, which can be joyous, triggering, or a combination of both, depending on who you're related to.

Dr. Shiels shared some examples of these comments in a video with over 1.3 million views.
