I found a bunch of questions that people commonly ask therapists and thought "hey I have a podcast" so here we are.
We talk about:
- have you ever wanted to be irl friends with clients?
- can mentally ill people be therapists?
- can a new therapist immediately diagnose me?
- can you truly fully recover from a lifetime of trauma?
- are you honest with your clients?
Is it only ok to grieve if someone died? Grief plays a very important role in our life and often gets ignored. Come, grieve with us as you're forced to listen your therapist Ash explain how to properly grieve to a nincompoop.
Listen to episode 1 first you chucklehead
Raising neurodivergent kids presents unique challenges and unique opportunities. We sit down with Courtney Clement Bowles, a licensed Play Therapist who specializes in working with neurodivergent children. She gives practical advice for parents who want to build a better relationship with their kid.
Yall mind if I talk about my d*ck right quick? Cool.
Body dysmorphia - an obsession over a perceived physical flaw, knows no gender boundaries. It affects men and women. I talk to your therapist Ash about men's issues around penis size and it's significant impact on our mental well-being. She also explains the different ways that dysmorphia can impact us and the best ways to deal with it.
This is a very personal episode. Your therapist and I both have had difficult experiences with religious trauma. Your therapist Ash helps contextualize what religious trauma is and how it impacts her clients. I share my personal story - and I get a little worked up in the process.
When is enough enough? How do you know when to draw the line? Your therapist Ash and I talk through what boundaries are, how to identify what your boundaries need to be, how to set them and how to maintain them.
Have you needed to change your oil but just can't seem to make it happen? Dishes piling up in the kitchen, but you never have time to get to them? Are you trying to be more efficient and effective but always get distracted? This one is for you.
Your therapist Ash and I ask each other a bunch of really unhinged questions about our relationship - questions like "if I were stuck in a room with my ex, and the world was ending in 30 minutes, would you be mad if I hooked up with them?" Yeah, unhinged. Come listen to see if we're still married at the end of the episode!
Your therapist Ash recently learned about a study called The Rabbit Effect. It underscores what we already know - having someone show you kindness and love impacts not only your mental health, but your physical health as well.
