I'm John, the Heavy Metal Therapist, a drummer, metal head and yes, a real therapist.

Metal has always been more than just music to me; it’s been a lifeline. That’s why I started this project: to create a place where we can break down songs, talk with bands, and be real about the struggles we all carry.

Whether you’re here for the breakdowns or the breakdowns we don’t talk about enough, you’re in the right place. Let’s get heavy, get honest, and find some hope along the way.
