I'm a therapist. I know how this is supposed to work. And I still had to learn every hard lesson myself — sitting in that chair as a client, just like everyone else does.

This episode is personal. Inspired by this month's Therapist's Bookshelf book, Maybe You Should Talk to Someone by Lori Gottlieb, I'm sharing my own therapy journey — the real one. Five therapists over 13 years. The ones that helped, the ones that didn't, the year I spent "waiting" for the perfect therapist (spoiler: that was avoidance), and the deep trauma work that has changed my life.

If you've tried therapy and quit, or you've been putting it off — this one is for you. The hard parts of the therapy journey are usually the signs it's working.

If this episode resonated, leaving a review means the world and helps more people find this space.

Let's Sit With This is hosted by Kristen Callaway, LMFT — a licensed therapist in Edmond, OK.
