Join my good friend Erica and I as we discuss challenges in the world of therapy today, from cross state licensing to challenges with clients in individual and couples therapy. We discuss challenges in therapy sessions such as building rapport, client honesty, and triangulation. Dr. Erica Krakovitz is a licensed clinical Psychologist who runs a private practice based out of LA and NYC. Dr. Krakovitz holds a BA in Psychology from Washington University in St. Louis, a Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy and Doctorate in Applied Clinical Psychology from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. She got her start as a therapist back in 2013 working with UCLA students and has since expanded into broader practice with young professionals, couples, and adults struggling with depression, anxiety and complex trauma. Dr Krakovitz has specialized training in psychodynamic, relational, cognitive-behavioral, polyvagal, and somatic interventions as well as sex and couples therapy. She is licensed in over 35 states.
S2 E3: Men's mental health is important! But it's rarely discussed. Join Serena and Kevin Benevides, Men’s Transformational Coach. Get advice for men and learn what men should be aware of.
