Episode 8: Janelle Esposito, LPC-Exploring Therapy

In my book AfterLIFE I spoke very openly about my experience with therapy because of the profound importance it played in my healing and growth.  I didn’t access this tool for many years in my life, because I thought doing so was “giving up” or “being weak”.  No one in my world ever discussed what it was or the benefits they received from. I believed that I could positive affirmation may way through anything in life.  That plus a combination of physical exercise that helped me burn through anxiety until several crisis hit me at once and I finally reached out for help. See my book for the complete story :) I’ve been open about my experience so others will maybe reach out sooner than I did, but I could only speak from layman’s perspective, and my experience so I wanted to bring an expert on to have general conversation about therapy, what it is, how one finds a therapist, different ways to access it on various budgets and more! As a practicing Licensed Professional Counselor, Janelle brings all that and more to this great conversation.  I learned so much and hope you do to!
