It's another relationship-based episode of My Therapist and I. Alex provides an update on the entrepreneur group he joined and how he's trying to be more open to creating new relationships. He also talks about how his conversation with Haley went about his fears surrounding dying way before she does. That leads him to reflect on a painful memory of his grandpa passing away a few years back.

On this episode of My Therapist and I, Alex shares that he sometimes worries that what he has to say is "boring" or unimportant. This can, as you can imagine, get in the way of therapy. What if what bothers us is uninteresting to others? Dr. Steve shares his thoughts.

On this episode of My Therapist and I, Alex is concerned he might be a bit too quick to judge others. Dr. Steve asks for a real-life example, and Alex shares from a recent group he joined. And then the conversation takes a hard left turn towards hockey, which makes sense.

Dr. Steve is away on official Dr. Steve business, which makes this episode more of a "myself and I." So Alex makes the most of it by answering some questions he's gotten from friends. There really isn't any point pretending that this episode has any structure, because there isn't any.

Alex learns a bit more about what Dr. Steve does - it's called "Discernment Counseling" and it's pretty intense stuff. Also, did you know he developed it alongside his mentor William Doherty? Pretty fancy. Alex recently decided to take up EMDR to help treat his dissociation, so he shares his experiences with that. Lots to talk about.
