Podcast: “Relate GREAT! with Jonathan Sherman and Friends”

Jonathan’s friends know super cool stuff about relationships and psychology!

We all want to have better relationships with others and with ourselves. This is the “Relate GREAT! with Jonathan Sherman and Friends” Podcast, and I am your host, Jonathan Sherman, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Join me and my fascinating guests as we talk about all kinds of relationship and mental health issues in a light-hearted, smart, insightful, and fun way. Welcome :-)

My colleague and friend. Tarah Stowell, LCSW, is a therapist who normally only works with individuals. Lately, however, she began working with a couple and found herself out of her depth, as the approach to, and dynamics of, couples counseling is very different. So she gave me a call looking for tips and graciously agreed to let me record our conversation for this show. So join us for an insider’s look at how to approach a couples therapy session. Topics Not all "couples" counseling is actually couples counseling. A solution-focused approach vs. identifying pathology and dysfunction. "Guy-friendly Therapy." How men and women are often acculturated in their emotional training and the difficulties it causes in relating to one another. Couple dynamics Do you stay neutral as a couples therapist or do you challenge and confront?
