This week the docs are in it to help you find a good therapist. Where should you start? How do you know who’s a good fit? Does the brand of therapy matter? When you reach out, does no one call you back? We have ideas. Also discussed: dogs and zoomies, books we’re reading right now, favorite biopics and memoirs, why you should go to the movies, and Whitney is working on a couple upcoming podcast topics, including how mental illness is co-created within cultures and the history of the DSM.
