HOW TO GET GOOD THERAPY
Getting quality health care “should” be your right, unfortunately, in our current healthcare systems that can be challenging if not impossible at times.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
The brain likes things in neat categories. It likes to keep things simple. It likes to know and to predict and to be right. It doesn’t like not knowing, being uncertain, out of control, or wrong.

So many decisions are made because of the meaning our brain assumes or the category it puts something in just so we could feel more at ease.
