153: Contemplating Therapy? Here's How to Do It in a Way That Feels Good With Lauren Larkin

Therapy—whether it’s your first time or you're jumping back in—it can feel super daunting. Where do I even start? What should I expect? How do I find a therapist? Is it going to be awkward? What if I don't connect with the therapist?

I sat down with Lauren Larkin, a psychotherapist specializing in anxiety, eating disorders, relationship issues and trauma, to talk about all things therapy, and she had some amazing insights to share!

Together we spoke about...

  • How to know if therapy is right for you
  • What actually happens in therapy
  • How to find a therapist and what's important when you're searching for one
  • What to do if you don’t connect with your therapist—and why it’s okay to move on
  • How to make therapy work for you with small steps and self-compassion

...and lots more!

Be sure to tune in for all the insights.
