Summary
Therapy can be a life changing experience, but it can be so unclear on where to start and how to navigate the experience! So today, our resident therapist Susan (my mom!) is here to give us a crash course in Therapy 101.
She’ll share insight into how to find a good therapist, the many different therapy modalities that you can consider trying, what it looks like to really feel your feelings with the guidance of a professional, and what to do if you feel like you need more from your therapist or if you are ready to move on.
Are you craving a community in sobriety? Join us in the Sober Mom Life Cafe! You’ll get access to 12 weekly peer support meetings, the exclusive Cafe social feed, our monthly book club, happy hour, the chance to share your story on The Real Sober Moms, and more! Get one week free at this link!
Or, check out our new community offering - The Sober Mom Collective! With one peer support meeting a week and access to the community social feed, this is a great way to dip your toes in.

Plus, take a look at my events calendar for a book tour stop near you. I would LOVE to meet you and thank you for being a part of this incredible community!
