This episode is all about decoding the myth that you can THINK yourself out of anything. CBT is a widely popular therapy modality that almost all psychotherapists are trained in. There's a good reason for this! There is positive research behind CBT and it has some helpful techniques but I talk about WHY it falls short and fails to support an extremely part of mental health: the body! We talk about... the difference between "bottom-up" and "top-down" practices and why "bottom-up" techniques are so helpful, what happens to our thinking we are under stress,  why feelings go beyond the thinking mind, and how to identify the invisible factors that influence mental health (hint: it's not our thoughts!) ✨ Follow Kendra on IG <a href='https://www.instagram.com/kendradela/'>@kendradela</a> 💻 Looking for a therapist who gets it? <a href='http://www.childtherapycenterla.com/'>www.childtherapycenterla.com</a>
