What do you want to know about your therapist? Are there questions you would love to ask but don’t feel like you can? Today, as therapists, Andrea and Jessica give honest answers to questions that our listeners wish they could as their therapists.
Andrea and Jessica also discuss how therapists handle listening to people's problems all day, whether therapists silently judge their clients, and if therapists talk about their clients with their friends. They emphasize the importance of the therapeutic relationship and unconditional positive regard in therapy.
Key Takeaways:

Therapists may feel emotionally drained after listening to people's problems all day, but they genuinely care about their clients and want to help.

Therapists are trained to provide unconditional positive regard and hold their clients in a non-judgmental space.

It is essential for clients to feel comfortable with their therapist and to trust that their therapist likes and cares about them.

Therapists are bound by confidentiality and ethical guidelines and do not discuss their clients' issues with others outside of professional consultations.

Therapy is a safe space where clients can bring their most vulnerable and shameful experiences without fear of judgment.
