"My Screws Were Loose After Marines: Now I'm the Therapist" featuring Matt Rensi
What happens when a Marine veteran returns from multiple combat deployments carrying invisible wounds—and later becomes the person helping others heal?
In this episode of Adapt and Overcome, Tommy Hardaway sits down with Marine veteran, therapist, researcher, and counselor Matt Rensi to discuss his journey from serving three combat tours in the Middle East to rebuilding his life after PTSD, depression, and personal struggles.
Matt shares how therapy changed his life and ultimately inspired him to become a mental health professional serving active-duty military, veterans, first responders, and families. He explains how his own experiences allow him to connect deeply with clients dealing with trauma, PTSD, depression, and life transitions.
Matt also opens up about returning to therapy during a difficult season while balancing full-time work, a PhD program, marriage, and raising four young children. His message is clear: healing is ongoing, and asking for help is a sign of strength—not weakness.
