  • How Do I Know When Therapy is Working?
    The unapologetic ladies are back with our season 3 premiere! We hope you all are as excited as we are! As masters level and associate level therapists, we get asked about the therapy process often. In this session we talk about how we know, as therapists, when therapy is working for our clients such as increasing the client's level of self awareness and accountability. We also talk about how progress can look like from the client's point of view. Therapy is a unique and special process, so we hope that we can provide some insight to help you along in your therapy journey. Thanks for listening! ✨

  • Session 21: Unpacking Racial Trauma
    There has always been so much trauma inflicted upon black and other minority communities. In recent years, particularly with media and social media, it seems as though we are constantly witnessing racial trauma. Consistently hearing about and seeing trauma in our everyday lives can add to the generational trauma of minorities and significantly impact our mental health. In this session we discuss how we each are personally dealing with and coping with the recent racial traumas in our society as minority women. We give some insight on how important it is to know your triggers and how crucial it can be to limit your media consumption during these hard times. You are not alone, please take care of yourselves and find safe spaces to talk openly about how all of this trauma may be impacting you. Stay tuned for our season 2 finale next week and as always-stay unapologetic.✨ Note: This session was recorded prior to the final verdict of the Derek Chauvin Trial for the Murder of George Floyd.

  • Session 20: My Trust Has Been Broken. Now What?
    This week’s session is all about trust. What happens when trust is broken? Can it be rebuilt? The unapologetic ladies talk about what trust means to each one of us and what it takes to rebuild it in all types of relationships and to even ask the question-is it worth it? It’s so important to identify what your boundaries are when it comes to trust and how to make sure you are able to identify and work through any trust issues you have in order to move forward and have happy and healthy relationships. We hope this session inspires you to do some self reflection and have some unapologetic conversations of your own! ✨

  • Session 19: Healthy Dating
    Dating in this day and age can be a lil rough let’s be real! In this session we’re talking about what healthy dating looks like. Whether you are newly dating or in a relationship it’s important that you are engaging in the process in a way that works for you and making sure you are communicating your needs and creating space for your partner to do so as well. Expectations, boundaries, and figuring out what you want when you’re dating can sometimes result in some anxiety, but we got you! We hope you take away some gems and apply them to your own dating life. ✨

  • Session 18: What to Expect in Couples Therapy

    We've spent a lot of time discussing our own therapeutic and professional perspectives of what Individual Therapy is like, but what about Couples & Relationship Therapy? After all, we are therapist's trained in Marriage & Family Therapy! During this session we explore common things to expect in Couples Therapy in terms of what a therapist might expect of their client's, things that are addressed and explored in therapy, as well as common issues partners might come to therapy for including the breakdown of communication issues, types of abuse, infidelity, life transitions, uncovering unhealthy cycles and patterns within the relationship, etc. We also take the time to explain how Relationship Therapy isn't only for couples, but that it can be a place for any type of relationship including a friendship, family, or roommates and how it can be just as important for the relationship.

  • Session 17: Emotional Intelligence
    In this week’s session we’re talking emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence is defined as the capacity to be aware of, control, and express one’s emotions. We know expressing emotions can be difficult for some, and we talk about our own personal experiences in dealing with expressing our emotions. Emotional intelligence is an important skill for us to learn for ourselves and for our relationships. We hope you enjoy and start having your own unapologetic conversations on how you can increase your emotional intelligence! ✨

  • Session 16: Self of the Therapist and Self-Care
    In this session the Unapologetic ladies discuss Self of the Therapist, which is how therapists recognize and deal with triggers when they come up in the therapy room with clients. Triggers can range from similar past traumas or just dealing with the same issues our clients are! Therapists are human too, so it’s important to recognize when something comes up for us and how to make sure we are taking care of ourselves! That leads us into a conversation about the importance of self-care and how burnout can be all too real! Enjoy! ✨

  • Session 15: Forgiveness

    "Forgive and Forget" is a common phrase we often hear, but what does that really mean? What are we necessarily forgiving and what are we forgetting? During this session, we get to unpack the interesting and very relatable topic of Forgiveness. We have all been in a situation where we were hurt by someone else close to us and we've either had to make the tough decision to forgive the person to help release the hurt and resentment we've been holding onto, or to continue moving forward without it. In this session, you will hear us explain our own meaning of Forgiveness and what it looks like, and open up about our own tough experiences with Forgiveness and what it did for us. We also get the chance to explain the many benefits of Forgiveness work, what it looks like in therapy, and the stages of it to help break down the actual process.
