Shrink Wrapped

Michelle O'Neil

Shrink Wrapped dives into the real, messy, sometimes hilarious side of mental health- no toxic positivity, no sugarcoating, and zero judgment. Hosted by Michelle, a counselor’s daughter with a mic and a low tolerance for BS, the show breaks down mental health (think anxiety, trauma, burnout, relationships, neurodivergence, addiction, and more) in a way that actually makes sense. Expect honest conversations, guided journaling, DSM dives, and dark humor for people who’ve cried in their car, side-eyed self-help books, or stress-ate pizza in the name of self-care.
