Q&A: How can I find a safe therapist after experiencing complex trauma?

Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg, Dr. Emily Upshur, and I talk about...

- When you notice unhealthy patterns in how you tend to show up in relationships or in past therapy, how you can communicate that to your new therapist to help treatment be more successful.

- If you're feeling overwhelmed by the idea of starting with a new therapist, we share a conversation starter that may make you feel more confident.

- Strategies for vetting potential therapists - both for professional expertise as well as goodness of fit.

- Red flags to be on the lookout for as you are deciding if a therapist is right for you.

- Why it can be helpful to have a basic understanding of the different types of evidence-based treatments and clinical interventions for complex trauma, or whatever mental health challenge you're struggling with.

- How to take into account the cultural, personal, and clinical sensitivities you may have when making your choice.
