Khloe Kardashian advised to get therapy
Khloe Kardashian has been told she needs therapy.
Both her sister Kim Kardashian and her best friend Malika Haqq have advised the reality TV star to see a therapist to help her cope with issues in her personal life but Khloe Kardashian doesn’t feel like she needs one.
On the latest episode of “The Kardashians,” Kim told Khloe that she was returning to therapy and added that “[you should] be on this journey with me.”
“We do have to celebrate your birthday really big. Should we do an ‘Eat Pray Love’ for your birthday? It’s indirect therapy. It’s like the kind of therapy you want to do,” Haqq suggested while discussing plans for Khloe’s 40th birthday.
“Do you think I need therapy?” Khloe asked.
“A hundred percent,” Haqq replied.
Khloe told Haqq about her conversation with Kim.
“You should listen to your sister,” Haqq said.
Khloe then revealed she has had therapy before, including before welcoming son Tatum with her ex Tristan Thompson and when she was dealing with her first husband Lamar Odom’s drugs and cheating scandal.
“I’ve done therapy. I’ve gone to like, three or four different therapists. I’ve never connected. I’m like, ‘I just told you my whole life story. Every dark demonic thing and you’re just gonna be like, ‘OK.’ I never got any guidance,” Khloe said. “So far, every therapist I’ve seen has done that.”
“Then she’s definitely not the person for you,” Haqq said.
“You’ve gone through several traumatic events and you need someone to help you find your exit. It’s not that you need someone to tell you how to be Khloe. You need someone to tell you how to see your way out,” Haqq said.
“I was actually told by one therapist that I didn’t need therapy because I process things so matter-of-fact. I don’t know. It was a strange encounter.
“My husband, I found him at a drug den in a motel and, like, I was saying something, but [my therapist asked], ‘So do you get upset?’
“[One therapist said] I don’t really think you need me. I was like, ‘What? Is she firing me?’ I think I got broken up with by a therapist,” Khloe said.
“I’m sure I need therapy. I just don’t think I’m struggling, and I’m like, ‘I can’t find my way. I need a therapist.’ I’m like, ‘OK, yeah, I’ll try therapy,’ ” Khloe said later in the confessional.
