We do something a little different with this episode--we put two books into conversation with each other. Break the Cycle and Where I Belong both discuss intergenerational trauma, and we discuss the merits (and struggles) of healing your trauma on your own, representation and the myth of the model minority, and which book we felt was like a warm hug :) Also, if you're an MFT listening to this episode, you will also appreciate the shoutout to the genogram!

In Episode 2 of SYTR, we discuss how Becoming a Citizen Therapist provides a framework for therapists who want to use their skills to help their communities outside the therapy room. *And* we talk about why everyone should read this book, not just therapists :)

For our first episode, we're reading Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents. We discuss if this book does what it sets out to do, talk about who we think it's for, and the nuances of healing parent-adult child relationships.
About SYTR
Books about mental health, wellness, and relationships are more popular than ever, but how do we make sense of everything out there? How do you know if a particular book is for you? If will actually help?
S* Your Therapist Reads is here to try to tackle those questions. We tell you who we think each book is for, how it might be useful (or not), and offer our thoughts as marriage and family therapists. And while we take our work as therapists very seriously...ourselves, not so much. We hope you'll read and laugh along with us as we discuss these books.
