It’s Not Therapy! with Liana Kerzner

Feeling stuck, unmotivated, anxious, frustrated, or just plain ‘blah’? With mental health services stretched beyond capacity, and people experiencing historical levels of isolation, it’s time for an innovative strategy for overcoming everyday problems.

It’s Not Therapy! is that strategy - a radio, streaming, and podcast show that offers life skills supports for busy people!

It’s Not Therapy! Is hosted by Liana Kerzner, a professional communicator who offers a friendly ear and solutions that can bring swift, positive results. And because these are skills everyone can use, both solution-seekers and listeners benefit!

How exactly does this work? Each show revolves around a topic to generate discussion, with information, sometimes interviews, and email and call-in questions.

The topics It’s Not Therapy! covers include:
•The positives of “negativity”
•The problem with “normal”
•Healthy sexuality
•What anxiety is telling you
•Modern dating sucks
•Masculinity, femininity, and individuality
•Anger is okay
•I love my family and they’re driving me crazy!
•They’re a great friend, but…
•What it’s like to have autism
•Do we overuse the term “addiction”?
•Is social media making you antisocial?
•Being depressed vs having depression
•I love my job. I hate my coworkers.
•How to make positive mistakes
•What your fantasies are really telling you
•When empathy hurts

Of course, the questions don’t have to match the topic. Anything goes! Liana will empathize, validate, and offer solutions to people’s problems with self-compassion exercises, achievable goal setting, self-care, and personal boundary setting, and give them tools they can apply immediately.

It’s a new twist on the old school advice column. It’s the right fit for the realities of today. It’s effective. And It’s Not Therapy!Copyright NEWSTALK Sauga 960 AM Ciencia Ciencias Sociales

    It's Not Therapy - Epi 167 - The Trumpertantrum!
    Apr 9 2026
    No, this episode isn't about politics, but the recent social media tirade from US President Trump threatening to militarily destroy Iran and its people, expressed in vulgar language, is a prime example of how behaviour once considered unfit for public display has now become normalized. Not only normalized, but held up as examples of strength, honesty and courage. Liana takes apart this troubling trend, influences which motivate it, illnesses which may contribute to it, and how we push back against it - without ourselves exhibiting the same behaviour.

    It's Not Therapy - Epi 166 - Independent Living With Disabilities - Forget All The Happy-Smiley Words
    Apr 2 2026
    "Disabled" works just fine for Todd Vaarwerk: Chief Policy Officer for West New York Independent Living, he's more interested in results. Todd uses a wheelchair due to the effects of cerebral palsy, so nobody is better at separating efforts which are useful support for disabled people from the 'well-meaning but useless' or counter-productive steps taken. And he does it with a rich sense of humour in conversation with Liana, who shares her own stories of 'accommodation' that really wasn't.

  • It's Not Therapy - Epi 165 - Duty of Care

    It's Not Therapy - Epi 165 - Duty of Care
    Mar 26 2026
    Duty of Care means ensuring that you take reasonable steps to provide a safe environment for others. It's a simple definition for a complex practice that takes on many different forms in different situations. Liana shares personal stories to reveal how that care can be applied - and misapplied -in ways that can make a situation less safe and supportive than you intend. Ultimately, a reasonable duty of care means finding a balance between support and the respect of an individual’s autonomy.
