What if something deeper than fear or doubt was keeping you from therapy? What if it’s not just about finding the right time or therapist—but something harder to name? In this episode, we explore the complicated role of shame in getting to therapy and staying in it. How does shame show up in ways we don’t expect? And what happens when we finally face it? Let’s talk about it.
