Hello, friends! This is a re-release of episode 74, in which I dive deep into 10 tips that you can use to get the most out of therapy. This is great advice whether you are a therapy newbie, a seasoned veteran, or still thinking about whether therapy is for you. Here are the tips I cover:
- You don’t need to impress your therapist
- Don’t lie to your therapist
- Don’t be afraid to get emotional and let it out
- Challenge your therapist and correct them
- If it’s not working, say something
- Find someone you are comfortable with
- Get therapy sooner
- Take notes and journal
- Do the homework and practice the skills
- Talk about the relationship between you and your therapist during session
As always, you can send me questions to duffthepsych@gmail.com and don’t forget that the Kick Anxiety’s Ass course remains open until the quarantine is over (it isn’t).
