Here’s What Therapy’s Like — From BOTH Ends of the Couch.
Therapy…
Everyone knows you should do it at some point in your life, but how do you know if you’ve got the right therapist, or if you’re in the right kind of therapy?
In this very candid conversation, I give you answers to all your questions, like:
- How many sessions will it take to know if it’s working?
- What the hell are you supposed to talk about in therapy, anyway?
- How much should I know about my therapist?
- Are there questions or topics that are off limits?
- What if I’ve caught feelings for my therapist?
- How frequently should I be going to therapy?
- Should I stop therapy when I’m no longer in a crisis?
- How active should I be in making sure therapy is moving in the right direction?
PLUS, I share about my own personal therapy experiences — especially the bad ones — so you can know what therapy should and should NOT be.
I’ll also tell you what to do if your own therapy isn’t progressing and how to partner with your therapist and share your feelings in a way that we’re trained to welcome — so you can get the most out of your experience!
By the end of today’s conversation, you’ll feel like you’ve been a fly on my office wall, because you’ll be armed with answers that most people never get access to.
PS: If you are a therapist, this episode is a public service that I implore you to listen to. Learn from my negative therapy experiences and bypass the wounding mistakes many of my own shrinks have made.
