Summary

Couch Talks is the bonus episode of You Need Therapy where listeners send questions to kathryn@youneedtherapypodcast.com

This week we have a more specific follow up to last week's question about therapists finding closure when clients terminate the therapeutic relationship. 

The three more detailed questions explored in this episode are: 

1. How do you find a sense of closure when there is no final conversation to process ending a therapist-client relationship?

2. What is the best way to respond to an email when a client wishes to discontinue therapy for the time being?

3. Is there a way for early therapists to communicate that therapy is not only used to process negative thoughts and events, but also maintenance and process positive thoughts and events?
