Part 5/7:

Therapists are often viewed as authority figures possessing all the answers, but they are also flawed human beings. Recognizing that therapists experience their own struggles can break down the barriers between professional and client. The notion of being able to "sit in the mud" together, facing the grittiness of emotional turmoil head-on, reinforces this collaborative dynamic.

Therapists are continually learning and evolving in their practice. Resources such as Med Circle offer valuable educational materials that therapists can use to stay informed about best practices, new therapeutic techniques, and changes in mental health diagnosis.
