Hi, everyone. It's Dr. Niagara again. Our next episode of Psychology on Plugs, thanks to all of our new and long-term listeners.

Appreciate your continued support of this program and continue to reach out. I'll give you that contact information later.

Please check out and follow like our Instagram page that Julie has been working with

somebody to kind of get that to a more professional level. And she's also been really helpful

in coordinating, I think in the upcoming year, some pretty prominent guest speakers that

we're going to have on a variety of different

topics. So please look out for those episodes coming in the beginning of the year.

Today's topic I wanted to focus on is the whole notion of psychotherapy.

And I've alluded to it at different points in different episodes and different podcasts.

But to take a step back and just look really at what psychotherapy is,

what it's not my own perspective on cognitive behavioral

therapy, the importance of neuropsychological testing prior to really get an accurate,

not just diagnostic picture, but also really the intricacies of how some how psych mythology manifests with a specific

person and i think it popped my head something came across like people turning to AI for therapy and

uh somebody who practices in the field and you realize that there's such a, certainly a science,

but also an art to doing psychotherapy.

Really, I think psychotherapy, is really kind of everywhere.

It's all over the place.

It's on social media.

It's in movies.

It's alluded to.

So I think it is a good thing that, you know, the taboo of talking to somebody about problems is here in the United States, I think is much more acceptable.
