The Rachel Does Therapy Podcast is a weekly conversation exploring what it means to be human, questions about mental health, and how to treat ourselves and one another with more compassion.
Disclaimer: This podcast is hosted by Rachel Alerte, an Associate Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in Atlanta, Georgia. While the topics discussed on the podcast may be therapeutic in nature, the podcast is not a substitute for therapy.
In this week’s episode, I talk about sharing our pain and why it’s important to find the right people to do that with. I also touch on why sitting with your pain should be normalized and then explore being vulnerable and how we can be better listeners when someone is being vulnerable with us.
You can find the resources I talked about linked below. Be kind and be well.
