🎙️ Episode 88: "My Parents Had Me Kidnapped"
In this gripping solo episode of Put Em On The Couch, host Jason McCoy, college psychology professor and mental health advocate, pulls back the curtain on the dark underworld of the Troubled Teen Industry (TTI)—a billion-dollar network of controversial youth programs, "behavioral boot camps," and residential treatment centers.
You’ll hear the harrowing true story of Kelly, a young woman who was forcibly removed from her bedroom in the middle of the night by two strangers wearing shirts labeled only “TRANSPORT.” Her journey—spanning several states from Maryland to Georgia—echoes the chilling experiences recently brought to light by Paris Hilton, who has become a vocal advocate for survivors of TTI abuse.
Just like Paris, Kelly’s ordeal began with a decision made not by the state—but by her own family. With the support of her grandparents, her parents researched “what to do with a troubled teen” and signed off on a journey that would leave lasting emotional scars.
