Behind Prison Walls: Ex-Prison Shrinks Expose Trauma and Truth
Description
🔒 Prison environments are anything but healing or rehabilitative. As correctional staff, we’re trained to never trust, never share, avoid admitting fault, and hide any sign of weakness from inmates.
But if building rapport and relationships is key to helping others heal, then removing that means a huge part of rehabilitation—and even therapy—is completely missing.
Join your Ex-Prison Shrinks, Dr. Teralyn and Therapist Jenn, on The Gaslit Truth Podcast as we expose the harsh realities of the prison system and the hidden, non-rehabilitative truths that civilians never hear about. 🎙️
Tune in now!!!🎙️✨

Next, we tackle the often-hidden trauma of prison life, debunking the myths perpetuated by social media and television. Jen and I share personal experiences that highlight the severe challenges of reentry into society, from lack of support structures to the overwhelming logistics of starting over. We discuss the ethical dilemmas and necessary lifestyle changes that come with working in corrections, including the safety measures we’ve taken to protect our families. These revelations paint a vivid picture of the emotional and psychological toll that prison work imposes on everyone involved.
Finally, we expose critical flaws in the addiction treatment and rehabilitation system within prisons. The conversation covers everything from problematic recidivism rates to inadequate therapeutic support, drawing striking parallels between the experiences of inmates and military personnel. The episode ends with our reflections on the unique social dynamics within prisons and our heartfelt gratitude to our listeners.
