Are you a part of the new "boomerang generation?" In this week's episode, we sit down with three therapists, Katie Trudo, Sarah Higgs and David Wood, and talk about living with your parents while in your twenties and developing a relationship with them as a young adult. They offer their tips for setting boundaries, finding alone time and dating while living at home in a pandemic. We also explore the new world of telehealth, virtual school, the future of mental health in our country and the importance of gratitude during hard times. Keep your mind healthy, and stay safe!
