The Reluctant Therapist: 50 Years of Treating Mental Health - Where are we?

The counseling profession has been through many changes since 1968 from differing theories on treatment to an expanded list of potential disorders and a heavy reliance on pharmaceutical intervention. So what have we learned over the last 50 years about the condition of the human psyche? And what will be the mental health challenges that we face in the next 50 years? Tune in at 2 for a Conversation with Elizabeth Barrett, the reluctant therapist about the hope of counseling in improving our lives.

Elizabeth Barrett is a wife, mother, licensed marriage-family therapist, educator, eavesdropper, emotion worker, and mental health consultant. She uses all of these skills to address the subjects that we all struggle with in this conversation with the Reluctant Therapist.
