In this episode, Dr. Dimos and I have some fun engaging in reality testing--reflecting on what our experiences of each other were like during my time as his student. We also talk about positive psychology and why this isn’t being talked about more in the field, the dynamics of being placed on a pedestal as a counselor and professor, why he transitioned from private practice to teaching, and much more.
