Facebook live where I discriminate between therapy as massage and therapy as the gym. And I took a question about a guy with an avoidant wife and how he thinks therapy is just making him more avoidant!

Which type of people get into a situation like this? What background leads to assuming that sexual attraction just won't be part of your relationship? Today's YouTube live turned video podcast helps you understand more about this dynamic that I see in therapy!

It is an epiphany to many clients that their parents were likely depressed, and not just "quiet," "irritable," "detached," or "angry."

I created my LOVE acronym for parents in conflict with their adult children, but it can be used for all relationships where you love someone, but they keep telling you they don't feel loved by you. Instead, they may have said they feel criticized, judged, or that you are not interested in them. Today we discuss the acronym and specific phrases to use for each! Remember, it is Like, Open, Validation, Empathy!

I am in the process of potentially writing a book about estrangement, and came across the statistic that 50% of people would be open to repairing an estrangement if they received an apology. This is positive for the many parents who struggle with feeling that estrangement with their child is "hopeless" or "impossible." In today's episode, I cover the role of therapy in parent-adult child estrangement, how to think about your adult child's request that you go into therapy, and more!
