Exploring your past and your relationships in deep work psychotherapy is more important than you realize — and ignoring them might actually be holding you back from recovering from your eating disorder. In this podcast episode, will discuss the affect your past has on your present (even if you don’t feel like you had any childhood trauma), why it’s important to look at your past with curiosity and not judgment, and how to get started today. Use these as your first steps toward disordered eating treatment and find more information on therapy sessions in NYC and Brooklyn on my website.

I don’t know about you, but very often I seem to understand something so well in my brain except when I start to explain it in words, all that gets jumbled into a mess. Jack has this knack of taking complex concepts putting into really organized terms in a way that makes you go, “duh!”

In today’s episode, husband and wife (yours truly) talk about the true purpose of therapy and the power that holds. Jack shows us how when we approach our therapy experience as more than a means to an end, an entire world of opportunity is opened up to us. He outlines exactly how this works and how you can use these ideas to further your own self development. Friendly banter is for your extra entertainment 😉.
