"Therapy speak" is such a growing problem that it was included in a newsletter I just got about "Trends for therapists to look out for in 2026." It was #2 on the 6 item list
I used to be able to trust that when a new client says "my partner gaslights me" they meant they are literally being abused, but now I have to ask whether they're being hyperbolic or using that term colloquially, which risks invalidating their experience.
This is similar to how people going gluten free caused a headache for people with celiac disease. Yes, there have been benefits, like growing awareness and more options on the shelf, but it also led to celiac folks not being taken/treated seriously, which could be deadly.
