Explore every episode of the podcast Therapist Confidential

In this episode of Therapist Confidential, Travis Heath speaks with Clayton Norman—a therapist whose work is anything but traditional. Clayton blends narrative therapy, Adlerian play therapy, and his background in youth programming to create “skate therapy”—sessions that unfold at skate parks rather than behind office walls. They discuss metaphor, subculture, and what therapy can become when we meet clients where they already are. Produced by Psychotherapy.net, this is a conversation for anyone rethinking what therapy looks like—or where it happens.

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.
