Session #27: Inside a Therapist’s Mind: Listener Questions We’ve Never Been Asked Before
☕ Welcome to Coffee and Counseling! ☕
Join Rachel Steinhardt, LMHC and Stephanie Van Schaick, LMHC as we dive into the questions everyone wants to ask their therapist—but usually doesn’t. From whether we ever struggle to empathize with clients to what we actually write in our notes, we’re pulling back the curtain on what it’s really like to be a therapist. Whether you're a therapist, someone in therapy, or just curious about mental health, we’re here to challenge conventional perspectives and get real about what healing actually looks like.
In This Session, We Cover:
✅ What therapists really think when clients ghost, overshare, or seem “dramatic”
✅ How personal experiences shape (but don’t define) a therapist’s specialty
✅ The behind-the-scenes reality of empathy, boundaries, and self-awareness in therapy
💬 Listener Question:
Send in your listener’s question for a chance for your question to be featured in one of our next sessions!
Have a question for us? Send it to [email protected] or on Instagram @CoffeeandCounselingPodcast — we might answer it in a future session! You can also send your topic suggestions that you’d like us to cover over to our email or Instagram.
