The aim of “Interview with a Therapist” is to humanize the therapist and destigmatize the treatment. This podcast takes a personal look inside the professionals who treat mental health. Each episode is an interview with a different therapist using the same 10 questions. This format is inspired by James Lipton and The Actor’s Studio; the Vanity Fair Proust Questionnaire; NPR’s Terry Gross and Dan Gottlieb’s Voices in the Family.
