Surviving the stress of the winter holidays is hard enough without also having to live through a global pandemic. Thea and Kate explore the very normal reactions of anxiety, panic, and frustration, and propose some ways we can try to maybe enjoy these (very weird) holidays anyway...at least a little bit. Or maybe not, maybe just scream it out.

In this brief introduction, learn the basics: how Kate Brett and Dr. Thea Gallagher know each other, why they started a podcast, and what you can expect.

It's Thea's turn to tell her story. Learn why she became passionate about mental health, and hear about her path to becoming a clinical psychologist running a best-in-class anxiety treatment program at an Ivy League university health system.

Get to know Kate better as she shares the story of her journey with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder--from her difficulty being diagnosed to her successful treatment and current advocacy work. Thea weighs in with valuable clinical questions from a psychologist's point of view.
