140: How to Stop Overthinking and Tips for Seasonal Depression, With the “Elle Woods of Psychology”
There's a reason why Maddy Ellberger, PhD, LCSW, is called "the Elle Woods of Psychology:" She brings an honest, luxurious, and fresh approach to therapy, and uses research-backed practices to coach clients to live their best lives. And on today's episode, she's spilling all her tips. She explains DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy) and how to apply it to your life for a major transformation. Josie and Maddy also discuss how to stop overthinking once and for all, how to beat seasonal depression, and why you should never vent. Maddy has a fascinating and fresh perspective on everything from what happiness actually means to why your "comfort show" should be different than you think. She's not your regular therapist–she's a cool therapist.
