SYNOPSIS
What exactly does a therapist do — and how can you explain it to someone who’s never been to counseling or only knows what they’ve seen on social media?
In this episode, I break down three simple analogies to make sense of therapy. Along the way, I clear up common misconceptions.
If you’ve ever wondered what counseling really is (or how to explain it to someone else), this short episode offers a fresh, approachable perspective.
