It's so interesting because I think we
0:02
often attract the clients that we still
0:04
need to do work on in ourselves,
0:06
It's like how the heck did they all end
0:08
up in my office? But it's so beautiful
0:09
because that's what also helps me grow
0:12
professionally as a therapist, but also
0:15
you know, and again, that's the part
0:17
that makes me the best therapist is like
0:19
how I can take that personal growth into
0:21
the room with my clients. It comes in
0:23
and every really good therapist should
0:25
have their own individual therapist to
0:27
address these things.
0:27
Yeah. when we screen for for a
0:30
therapist, when clients will ask me, you
0:32
know, can you help me find someone? And
0:33
I give them a list of questions. And and
0:36
I've had some debate with other
0:37
therapists about whether or not it's
0:40
are you in therapy as the therapist? And
0:43
I've had people tell me
0:45
that therapists have said, "That's not
0:46
appropriate for me to share my personal
0:48
business with you." And I'm like,
0:50
"Hang up and call someone else. Run."
0:52
Because if they're not comfortable
0:56
I think it's a professional
0:58
responsibility that we maintain our own
1:00
therapeutic relationship with our own
1:01
therapist so that when we have our stuff
1:04
come up, we go address it like now.

Otherwise, it's in the way and it's not
