Probably my (Charles) favorite episode! When you interview your own therapist, making the conversation all about you is so easy! In this exciting, new episode, we welcome Renata Cerveira, LMHC, to the podcast to discuss her career in mental health, as well as what therapy is like, and how people can change for the better.

Please give it a listen, and find her on social media @rediscover_counseling, and at her website, RediscoverCounseling.com.
