In this thought-provoking episode, four therapists from different corners of the United States come together to discuss the unique challenges they're facing in their practices as clients express concerns about the new president and the political climate. As therapists, they share insights into how they're supporting individuals struggling with political anxiety, polarization, and uncertainty, while also exploring their own personal processes of coping with the results of the election.
In this episode, you’ll hear from seasoned professionals about:
- The emotional toll of political stress on clients and how to address these concerns in therapy.
- Tools and techniques therapists are using to help clients find grounding and resilience in times of political unrest.
- How therapists are balancing their personal views with their role as impartial, empathetic listeners.
- Personal stories from each therapist on their journey to process the election’s impact on them both professionally and personally.
Whether you're a mental health professional or someone simply trying to navigate the emotional landscape of our current political moment, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice for understanding and coping with the complex interplay between politics, mental health, and personal identity.
Tune in for an honest and reflective conversation about therapy in the age of political change on Through the Eyes of a Therapist.
