Travis Heath Didn’t Learn This in Grad School: From El Segundo to Therapist Confidential

In this episode of Therapist Confidential, host Travis Heath shares the professional journey that shaped him—from his early days as a trainee seeing clients in El Segundo to questioning what therapy is really about. With honesty and humor, Travis reflects on what grad school couldn’t prepare him for: meeting people in parks, sitting on front steps, and learning that therapy doesn’t always need a room—or a script. Part personal introduction, part professional reckoning, this episode lays the foundation for a podcast rooted in relationship, reflection, and practice over performance. Produced by Psychotherapy.net, it invites listeners into the kind of therapy conversation that’s rarely captured—and deeply needed.
