In Episode 7 of Fairlington Friends, we sit down with Michael Shea—psychotherapist, musician, and artist—who has created a unique performance experience that blends mental health insight with live music and creative expression.

 

Michael shares how his work as a therapist informs his artistry, and how he’s crafted a show that explores the inner world of the psyche in a way that’s both accessible and deeply human. It’s a fascinating conversation about creativity, healing, and the ways we make meaning through both science and art.

 

And of course… we still find our way into a few classic Fairlington tangents along the way.
