Episode Description
Accomplished psychotherapist and author Michelle May joins us to discuss her book "What I Couldn't Tell My Therapist" and much more. After seeking relief from a six-year persistent headache and getting multiple invasive surgeries, she developed a reliance on opioids. She dove into the depths of her own emotional turmoil and had a breakthrough moment while pursuing her path toward becoming a therapist. “Sometimes physical pain is due to physical factors,” May acknowledges. “And sometimes pain results from the ways we avoid the truths of our lives.” The surgeries provided relief, but through this journey of self-discovery and acceptance, Michelle unearthed the profound connection between her emotional pain and the persistent ache she endured for years. In "What I Couldn't Tell My Therapist", Michelle M. May shares the unforgettable stories of three patients in intensive therapy. Through these stories, the profound truth emerges—that the unspoken holds the power to shape our healing journey.
