Psychologist Josh Mirmelli joins us today to talk about the challenges and beauty of being a psychologist. In this episode, we chat about how he felt a helping career was his calling, the struggle of disclosing his addiction on the psychology licensure, growing through hard moments, finding courage in surrender, growing up gay in a Jewish community, shame, antisemitism, being a people pleaser, trying to get into recovery multiple times, anesthetizing emotions, what it's like to be a therapist and how COVID was something he and his clients had to cope with simultaneously.
