Season One Wrap-Up: The Conversations That Matter Most
In this capstone episode, we reflect on the key themes from Season One—choosing a therapist, first sessions, treatment planning, self-advocacy, and more—while diving into new ground we haven’t explored yet: navigating insurance, crisis therapy, LGBTQ+ challenges, and gender narratives in mental health. It’s the big-picture discussion that brings it all together and sets the stage for what’s next.
