What makes a good therapist?

What qualities do you look for in a therapist? In this episode Hope and I get personal and talk about our own experiences with different therapists we've encountered and how they may have impacted our lives.

Unsolicited Advice

We all give and receive unsolicited advice from time to time. Hope and I discuss when we have been on the receiving end and how it feels. Often times we don't realize that we put ourselves in situations which may elicit the unwanted advice. We ourselves are also guilty of giving unsolicited advice to others, thinking it is well meaning. We talk about how we are learning to step back and ask before offering the advice.
