As of 2024, the My Therapist Says Instagram page has over eight million followers. What started off as a group chat between four girlfriends has evolved into a supportive community with many laughs and even advice. The founders of the page, Nicole Argiris and sisters Lola, Gina, and Nora Tash, even wrote a book: “My Therapist Says: Advice You Should Probably (Not) Follow.”
The girls describe their page as a place to share “original memes about struggles with anxiety, growing up in the social media generation, and figuring your life out in general.” The core message they want to share with the world is that “No matter who you are, dealing with all the tribulations of life, you’re never alone and never as ‘crazy’ as you think.”

The four friends, who all grew up in Toronto, Canada, have been in therapy for many years. In their group chat, they often would share advice with each other, starting with the phrase, “Well, my therapist said…” That’s what inspired the name of the Instagram page.
“Our therapist, of course, said no such thing, but we thought that it legitimized the advice to the point where we would have to take it,” Lola Tash said in an interview with The Daily Mail in 2020. “It was always with the best intentions that we were giving each other advice.”
