Think therapy is just lying on a couch talking about your childhood? Think again! In this episode of the Soulcial Werk Podcast, we're breaking down some of the biggest misconceptions about therapy. From the idea that it's only for people in crisis to the myth that therapists have all the answers. We discuss what therapy really looks like, how the therapeutic relationship works, and why seeking support is a sign of strength, not weakness. Whether you've been in therapy for years or you're just curious about getting started, this conversation is for you.Melody's Reading Recommendations:Decolonizing Therapy: Oppression, Historical Trauma, and Politicizing Your PracticeJennifer Mullan My Grandmother's Hands: Racialized Trauma and the Pathway to Mending Our Hearts and BodiesResmaa MenakemThe Pain We Carry: Healing from Complex PTSD for People of ColorNatalie Y.
