Om episode
Licensed mental health counselor & pschyotherapist Ryan Lewis, i.e. my therapist joined me on #BTSPodcast. He’s so great and I appreciate him so much which is why I asked him to be on. We discuss the emotional toll of his work, how he fell in to counseling/therapy, learned to set healthy boundaries for himself, selecting a counseling program, making a living as a therapist… including everyone’s favorite subject: insurance! Ryan is a Seattle University alum, and I really appreciate him sharing the business side of therapy and his own journey. Ryan Lewis is a Seattle-based counselor who prioritizes helping patients internalize their optimal values and innate strengths to empower and enable them to live the life they desire and deserve. He’s also… my therapist! He takes an integrative and holistic approach to his work with patients, and he’s been incredibly helpful to me.
