Hey y'all, this is Dr. Joy from the Therapy for Black Girls Podcast.

And this is a booster session.

As a reminder, the information included is meant to be educational and entertaining, but

is not a substitute for relationship with a licensed mental health professional.

Hey y'all, it's Dr. Joy and I'm back with another booster session.

So if you caught into here last night, you probably knew that I would have some thoughts I wanted

to share and I definitely did.

Last night's episode was a really good one, and I have feelings about quite a few things,

but for this booster session, I wanted to specifically talk about the fact that we saw

Molly in another session with her therapist.

Yay, she's still in therapy.

And she's talking about how she doesn't feel like she's getting her props at the new law

firm, and she comments that she doesn't want to keep getting caught up in situations

that don't move her forward like that situation with Dr. Joy.

And at that moment, we hear a record scratch as her therapist asks, who's Dr. Joy?

So y'all know I found that hilarious because it's actually not at all made up.

There definitely are times when clients will leave out seemingly huge pieces of the puzzle

that opens up an entirely new dimension for their work.

So I wanted to chat briefly about two reasons you might not be being honest with your therapist

and how you can change that.

Because of course, if you're not being honest, then you're not getting everything you could

be getting out of the therapeutic experience.
