Anxiety doesn’t discriminate. While we know this to be true, it’s rare to hear from a Clinical Psychologist who not only works with patients to manage anxiety but also has a personal anxiety journey he's happy to talk about. In this engaging conversation Dr Daniel Berends offers a unique perspective from both sides of the therapist’s couch.
He shares his journey to becoming a Clinical Psychologist after a 'gap decade', how the brain is wired to keep us 'safe, not happy', powerful metaphors to understand anxiety, what it's like practicing as a psychologist while also managing his own anxiety and practical ideas to help us all let go of worries and unhelpful thinking.
