In this episode of Cheaper than Therapy the Podcast, we sit down with Todd Baratz, LMHC, a certified sex therapist, licensed individual and couples psychotherapist, co-host of the Our Diagnonsense Podcast, and writer who specializes in relationships and sex. We talk about relationships, his philosophy that “you aren’t fucked up - our culture is,” and his first book, How to Love Someone Without Losing Your Mind which is available now! Todd is one of our favorite people and we had so much fun during this conversation. We know you’re going to have so many take-aways and love this conversation with him, as well!
What You’ll Gain from this Episode:
✨ The complex reality of therapeutic support on social media, it’s influence on current societal trends, and the need to hold space for the inevitable lack of nuance that exists in the digital world
✨ An emphasis on the importance of understanding the complexities and meanings behind behaviors, rejecting black-and-white thinking, and taking personal responsibility to recognize the influence of social norms on your own personal development
✨ How our relationship structures are evolving in ways that offer less dogma and more authenticity in our healing, and how that’s begun to shift the societal “normal” away from staying in unhealthy relationships
✨The necessity for therapists to check in with their countertransference and not be too quick to look for a solution when “stuck” is a necessary stage of their own personal development
🎙This podcast is definitely Cheaper than Therapy
