Why do we need therapy?
Meet Phyllis Leavitt, M.A.!
When Phyllis became a psychotherapist, she never imagined she would one day be entering a “political” arena.
But the more she worked with widespread family dysfunction and its horrifying legacy of pain and violence, the more she realized that the greatest threat to our survival as a country and as a species is our declining mental health.
Phyllis knew that what we have learned about healing family violence can and must be applied to healing America. She felt compelled to leave the confines of her office and speak to a broader audience.
Phyllis wanted to share her message of urgency to get ourselves on a path of healing, a message of Hope that we can restore ourselves to Safety, Peace, and Love by healing the wounds we have suffered and the wounds we have inflicted that keep a cycle of violence going.
Phyllis wrote America in Therapy for all those hungry for this message.
