Description

In this episode, MaryBeth shares a story where she made a schedule change for two clients without fully considering the impact it would have on them. One client felt second best and requested a new therapist. MaryBeth reflects on the importance of the therapeutic relationship and the need to balance the needs of both therapist and client. She emphasizes the significance of repairing ruptures in the therapeutic relationship and the value of open communication.

Join us each week for stories from behind the closed therapy door. You’ll hear relatable experiences from other therapists, including bloopers, highlight reels, and other ridiculous moments that you thought you were the only one experiencing. Each episode contains 50% inspiration, 50% storytelling, and 100% real humans and their journey in the mental health field. With burnout running rampant, the last thing you need is another podcast that adds to your to-do list, so drop the notebook. This is a space with no experts, gurus, or hierarchies- just humans sitting in similar chairs. We’re not the gatekeepers for good and bad therapy but we are here to shine a light on the difficult decisions therapists face on a daily basis - and normalize the mysterious gray area of clinical practice that no one wants to talk about. New and seasoned therapists, graduate students, agency employees, private practice owners, and entrepreneurs - this one is for you.
