| 0:00.0 | Hi, I'm Emma, a licensed marriage and family therapist, and you're listening to the Therapy in a Nutshell podcast. |
| 0:06.0 | It's my mission to create easy to understand educational content about therapeutic skills and topics that anyone can use in their daily life. |
| 0:14.0 | I hope these episodes bring you more insight into how your mind works and what actions you can take to improve your mental health. Each podcast |
