First we learn and we remember so much more when that transformation or change is happening in the context of a relationship, because we are hardwired for connection or hardwired for relationships, and then getting to experience that kind of change with another person who's willing to sit there with you and who is excited and engaged to be there with you, it makes it sink in that much more and it's going to carry out beyond the therapy room.
Why do men often find it tough to seek help for their mental health? What makes therapy effective, and why is reaching out for support so challenging? These are the pressing questions tackled by host Matt Shedd and psychologist Dr. Steve Fogleman in this thought-provoking episode of 'Finding Help: Therapy, Recovery, & Community'. Dr. Fogleman, who specializes in Interpersonal Process Therapy, sheds light on how therapy can be a powerful tool for men to address and heal from past traumas.
He emphasizes the importance of a safe and supportive environment where clients can openly share their experiences. The discussion also touches on how media, like the show Mad Men, shapes our expectations of therapy long before we even step into a therapist's office. Dr. Fogleman shares his unique approach to therapy, which integrates his own experiences and focuses on interpersonal connections.
He also highlights the importance of addressing cultural differences in therapy and why he enjoys working specifically with men on men's issues. By the end of the episode, listeners will have a clearer understanding of how therapy can help men overcome obstacles and improve their mental health. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the intricacies of therapy and mental health support for men.
