  • Great podcast on Mental Health

    I recently connected with John on LinkedIn as a fellow therapist. I have started listening to his podcast episodes on my commute. John is relatable, engaging and knowledgeable. I most recently listened to the episode on “what if” and appreciated John’s tips regarding challenging the false beliefs, even as a clinical therapist myself I need this reminder.
