Summary
Couch Talks is the bonus episode of You Need Therapy that comes out every Wednesday where Kat answers questions that listeners send to kathryn@youneedtherapypodcast.com. This week, Kat dives into two thought-provoking questions that touch on the current climate: Can you be in a relationship with someone who has different political views? And as a therapist, how do you navigate your own beliefs when working with clients who hold opposing views? Kat explores different perspectives and provides helpful insights to consider, to help gain a deeper understanding of these complex topics and reflect on how they might show up in your own life and relationships.
