Podcasts about therapypodcast

 When searching for a therapist, it's essential to consider your specific requirements, such as expertise in women's health. Start by identifying what type of therapy might be most beneficial for you. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, and mindfulness-based therapy are among the many approaches available. Utilize online directories and databases such as Psychology Today or TherapyTribe to filter therapists based on your preferences, including their specialization in women's health issues.Another critical step in finding a therapist is to seek recommendations from trusted sources. Friends, family members, or healthcare providers can offer valuable referrals. Additionally, many communities have local mental health organizations or women's health clinics that provide resources and referrals. When you contact potential therapists, inquire about their experience with issues related to women's health (if appropriate), such as postpartum depression, menopause, or trauma recovery. This way the therapist has the relevant expertise to understand and address your unique concerns effectively.Lastly, it is important to consider logistical factors when selecting a therapist. Check their availability, location, and whether they offer virtual sessions, which can be particularly convenient for busy women balancing multiple responsibilities. Verify if they accept your insurance or if they have a sliding scale fee structure to accommodate different financial situations. Remember, finding the right therapist might take time, but prioritizing your mental health and well-being is worth the effort. By following these steps, you can find a qualified therapist who specializes in women's health and supports you on your journey to improved mental wellness.GO BOLDLY HOMEWORKTake the time now, before you need one, to find out how your insurance supports your mental health.  Is there a specific service you must use?

Today I'm going to show you exactly how to get what you want from the people who mean the most to you. I call this little method "Flowers on Friday." And all this talk reminded me of a song that I wrote with my band 13 Stories years and years ago called, Flower which I have included here for you to enjoy, as well. Then, as always, we will meditate together with a mantra for abundance and wealth to seal the deal on our desires and the ability to express them well.In this episode we will: ~Learn the “The Flowers on Friday” method and how to use it to get what you want ~Learn just how to articulate our needs well and clearly ~Om Shreem Maha Lakshmiyei Namaha meditation for manifesting abundance and desiresJoin Cheri Flake on her next retreat!In the mountainsor At the beachLove the show?

The best part about a good vacation is how it can bring feelings of relaxation, peace of mind, and restoration. For a lot of people, however, those feelings are fleeting, and it's not too long till you're planning another vacation just to get a little bit of that peace and happiness again. As a society, we are constantly chasing happiness in the form of a stress-free life, but it always seems just out of reach. We get caught up in work stress, relationship stress, and much more. We may become so stressed that we start to feel depressed, anxious, or burnt out. Stress really does seem inevitable most times. However, the research on happiness and stress shows there is a way to live a life that is less stressful. On today's show, we're going to look at practical and research-based ways to reduce stress so you can live a happier life.Key TakeawaysIt's essential to cultivate a mindset of happiness, no matter the circumstances. Doing this changes the lens in which you see the world, leading to less stress and more positivity. Make a conscious effort to be kind.

Have a routine of things to help you stay focused throughout the day while reducing stress.

“Self-love is not selfish, it is necessary. And it does not serve any of us well to have an outpouring of love for other people around us, and yet, we don't love ourselves.” - Tommi VincentWelcome to Stay a While with Tommi Vincent! When you truly know who you are, you just walk differently. Sometimes, that walk can be a solo one. Having all the confidence in the world doesn't mean that we will not endure moments of standing alone. However, who says that's a bad thing? The best outcomes can arise when we embrace the solo mission. But first, we gotta take the risk, and bet on ourselves. Are you up for it? My guest, Gabrielle McBay, takes her seat at the table to confirm that you can never lose when you bet on yourself.Gabrielle McBay is a professional chef and creative producer from Dallas, TX with over ten years of experience in the culinary industry. Gabrielle has been featured across notable media platforms including Food Network, ABC, Essence, Forbes, Black Enterprise and the New York Times. Her extensive resume details high-profile clientele and reputable brands including artists and athletes, Instagram, Netflix, Nike, Lexus, Williams Sonoma, Neiman Marcus, and American Airlines. Gabrielle is also the self-published author of You Have Food at Home, Peace, Love, and Good Food, and Table for One. Her love for good food in front of and behind the camera is enjoyed by thousands around the world. In this episode we cover [00:01 - 00:00] Getting to Know Gabrielle [11:24 - 28:12] The Motivation to Leave Safety and Take Risks [28:13 - 36:00] When the Expectation of Our Risk Doesn't Meet Reality[36:01 - 42:01] Self-Love is Not Selfish It's Necessary[42:02 - 48:57] Closing Segment Key Quotes“And I made the move because I wanted to do something for me, without anybody else attached to it.” - Gabrielle McBay“Facts over feelings. A lot of times we put our feelings above everything. I used to operate off of feelings all the time. So if you are operating off of feelings of fear, you're not moving in your purpose, you're not moving in that confidence.” - Gabrielle McBay “I really believe that recipes keep the story going. It allows for generations to come, the opportunity to meet people that they may have never met before because they're no longer here on this earth, but they get an opportunity to feel the love from that person through the recipes that we continue to share. So I think it's really important to share recipes and to document recipes so that generations can experience that same love for generations to come.” - Tommi Vincent Connect with Gabrielle McBayWebsite: https://www.gabriellemcbay.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/gabriellemcbay Twitter: https://twitter.com/gabriellemcbay Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chefgabriellemcbay Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/gabriellemcbay Check out her latest book for all things beautiful and delicious: https://www.gabriellemcbay.com/shop/you-have-food-at-home-1 Connect with Me!

I get a LOT of questions about how to recover from a relationship with a narcissist. So this topic is one I’ve wanted to address for quite a while. I’m so pleased to welcome psychologist Dr. Annie Kaszina to the program to share not only her professional expertise, but also her personal journey of marrying and then divorcing a narcissist. Dr. Kaszina delves into:· How strong, independent, accomplished women fall in love with and stay with narcs.· The red flags narcissists wave—despite their best efforts to dupe you!· Dr. Annie’s suggestion for discovering if the person you’re dating has narcissistic tendencies.· Why pacing yourself in the early days of a relationship is imperative!· The power of self-knowledge as it relates to narcs.· How to take back control after being with a narcissist.· Co-parenting when your ex is a narcissist.· The identity some women take on when they’ve been with a narc.In this episode, as in her book, Do You Choose Your Dog More Carefully Than Your Husband? Dr. Kaszina assures us that we CAN rebuild our lives in the aftermath of narcissistic abuse and we CAN move forward empowered, emboldened, and equipped to select a husband as carefully as we’d pick a pup!Get a free chapter of Dr. Annie’s book here: https://recoverfromemotionalabuse.com/lp-dog

We all want a great marriage, but how do we cultivate and maintain an extraordinary connection in the midst of life’s stressors and challenges? For over 30 years, Dr. Terri Orbuch has researched the habits and practices of happy couples (and unhappy ones) in her landmark National Institutes of Health (NIH) study. She joins me to discuss her book, 5 Simple Steps to Take Your Marriage from Good to Great, in which she shares simple, practical strategies from her longitudinal study including:· How to maintain realistic expectations without settling.· The no. 1 problem in marriages.· How happy couples communicate vs. unhappy couples.· The need men have which, when met, predicts they’ll be happy and content in their marriage—and no, we’re not talking about sex!· What factors make for the strongest marriages.· How to “trick your brain” to reignite the spark in your marriage.· The no. 1 topic daters should not discuss on dates!I put it this way on Instagram, “Marriage is great, but only if it’s a great marriage!” Join us to learn research-based tools and techniques to level up your marriage/relationship!

In this week’s episode, I’m super excited to share a BIG Love & Life announcement! Join me to be the first to hear the news! I also answer two listeners’ questions. “Ella” asks, “My boyfriend is from Venezuela and lives here under political asylum. We definitely experience some challenges due to our different cultural backgrounds. Also, he wants children and I don’t. I care for him deeply, but I’m not sure if I’m ‘in love.’” Given these realities, “Ella” wonders if their relationship can go the distance. The second question involves a man “Ginny” met on Plenty of Fish. After texting and calling for a while, he mentioned he’s been out of work due to Covid and asked her if she might be able to support him a bit. He’s from Norway so he doesn’t have family here to help him. She’s worried he might be out to take advantage of her—if he’s really who he says he is in the first place!

We’re all navigating uncharted waters—trying to stay physically safe and emotionally sound in the midst of a global pandemic. Psychotherapist Kate Lambie, LCPC, joins me to unpack six simple strategies for managing our mindset and maintaining our psychological wellbeing during Covid-19. We discuss 6 “Gs” (grounded in psych research and psychotherapeutic techniques) we can implement today to think and feel better NOW despite the uncertainty of these unprecedented circumstances! At the end of the program, I answer a listener’s question about dating standards—should they remain the same during this Coronavirus pandemic?

Every couple quarrels from time to time. But according to psychiatrists Dr. Phillip Lee and Dr. Diane Rudolph, arguments can become addictive! In their book, Argument Addiction: Even When You Win, You Lose, Dr. Lee and Dr. Rudolph explain how with some couples, heated conflicts, (just as addictions) serve to “make life more tolerable” by distancing them from deep wounds of rejection, frustration, and despair. Yet, as with any addiction, these ultimately prove horribly destructive. But, there is hope! Join us as Dr. Lee shares wisdom from his 30 years as co-head of Marital Therapy at Weill Cornell Medical Center. Learn the subtext beneath every marital spat along with hacks for how to readily dismantle damaging communication patterns—even if these dynamics have been in place for years!
