Key Highlights

  • Mike speaks on how the patient's relationship to therapy has evolved over the years and how he's evolved as a therapist over the last 10+ years.
  • He describes how to use therapy and medication as a stepping stone to your next step of healing, instead of using it as a bandaid.
  • Why do people experience PTSD differently? It depends on oxytocin, genetics, and how you care for yourself.
