What if the biggest barrier to therapy isn’t motivation—but miscommunication? In this episode, we explore how coordination (or lack of it) between therapists, doctors, schools, and families can deeply impact a person’s ability to access and stay in therapy. How does behind-the-scenes collaboration support healing—and what happens when it’s missing?
Join us as we uncover why connecting the dots outside the therapy room is just as crucial as the work done within it.
