Private Practice Skills

Processing Personal Challenges While Still Being a Therapist


Listen Later

I often find myself wanting to hear personal, human stories from fellow therapists. And I'm also curious what the experience of being a therapist is like when we're sometimes going through tough times ourselves.

Today I'm sharing my story of growing up in a narcissistic household and the experience of unpacking that as a 30-year-old while seeing clients in my therapy practice. Thank you for listening to my story.
