These are just a few things I wish I knew when I started seeing both psychologists and psychiatrists. 🫠
Today we talk about 5 important green and red flags to keep an eye out when looking for a new psychologist!
Stick until the end so you can get a list of questions to ask before you set up your first appointment! I hope this is helpful to you 🖤
PS: Philbert wasn't emotionally traumatized on that short-scene, he actually insisted on recording it for the video.
Thank you as always!
