Making Assertive Requests In Your Relationships

A podcast about all the questions you wish your therapist would give a straight answer to.

As a fellow therapist, I very much appreciate this podcast as an informative and relatable conversation between two professionals in the field. Some days I learn something new and have a take away that I can use with clients. Other days, I feel encouraged and supported to listen to a conversation in which I think “Yes! That’s exactly how I feel about it! I thought I was alone!” I love the presentation as one in which various thoughts, opinions, and perspectives are “fleshed out” to offer a variety of insights as opposed to two co-workers coming together to present one modality or way of thinking. The speakers compliment each other very well and present an easy listen. Thank you!!!

Great Water Cooler Moments!
