About this episode

In this episode, Ryan Ginn discusses how to find the right couples therapist and what makes therapy effective.

In this episode I bring on my friend and practicing couples therapist Ryan Ginn to break down what separates great couples therapy from a waste of your time and money. If you’ve ever felt like you and your partner were just venting to a silent witness every session, or you’re trying to figure out where to even start looking for the right fit, this one’s for you. Ryan and I get into the leadership quality you want from a therapist, why nervous system training matters way more than just talking about your problems, and how to know when it’s time to find someone new. We also cover the trap of litigating the past, what it means to actually train your relational capacity in session, and the willingness both partners need to bring for any of it to work.
