I am also not one of these specialists, but some methods used by Tilly seem… Counterproductive? Like cornering a traumatized young adult emotionally seems like it could backfire heavily.

I won’t pretend to be an expert, and I do hope that someone out there will get an actual therapist to guest on a podcast or soemthing to talk about the episode, but I do know that therapeutic confrontation is a real thing.
