Can't believe we're already here! Welcome to the season 3 finale of USTT and we thank you so much for listening and riding with us in our 3rd season. We are so very appreciative of our listeners and we hope that you enjoy this episode. We hope you have a safe and happy holiday season.

We love talking about relationships here at USTT, so we are back with another relationship topic! Today we are talking about maintaining and even rebuilding a connection when you have been in a long term relationship. Maintaining a connection can be tough and all relationships can have rough patches, so this session is all about how to move through those tough times and create an even stronger connection. Enjoy, and stay tuned for next week's season finale!

Hey everyone! **Trigger Warning** This session we are talking about depression so if this is a sensitive topic for you, exercise self care and skip this session. Depresion in young adults can look different so in this episode we talk about what it can look like in the hopes of helping you recognize signs in yourself or in someone you love. We hope you enjoy and see ya'll next week!

Happy Wednesday! This week we are talking about vulnerability within relationships. Vulnerability is such an important component in romantic, familial, and platonic relationships. Vulnerability can be tough and definitely something that takes practice to get more comfortable with! In this session we get vulnerable and talk about areas where we struggle with vulnerability and how we've worked through it, which we hope can be helpful for all of you on your journey to being more vulnerable. Enjoy and we will see ya'll in our next session!

Hey everyone! We are back with another episode of USTT. On today's episode we are talking about the importance of self forgiveness and giving yourself grace. This episode is important especially during the holidays because we can easily get so focused on giving to others and neglect ourselves. Take this episode as a reminder to be kind to yourself and make sure you are giving yourself some grace! 

Hey ya'll! This week we are touching on the hot topic of cohabitation and the unapologetic ladies are split! Some of us are pro living with a partner prior to marriage and others are strongly against it (or at least not until after an engagement). In this session we explore both sides of the argument and things get a little spicy, but having discussions on differences happens in all relationships, so we encourage you to have the same discussion in your own relationships. What side of this argument are you on???

Thanks for listening and we'll see ya'll next week!

Hey Unapologetic People!! This week's topic is a tough one for sure and always a debated topic-Infidelity in a Relationship. As psychotherapists who often work with couples, infidelity is a common issue couples come into therapy with. We discuss our individual approaches when infidelity is occurring or has previously occurred in a relationship. We talk through the importance of honesty, forgiveness, and communication when moving through infidelity. It is so important for both partners to do the work! We hope this episode is helpful in moving through your own experiences or even allows you to reflect on how you have dealt with infidelity in the past.

Stay tuned for our next drop next Wednesday and don't forget to follow us on all socials @ustherapytalks. 

Hi everyone! We are back with another session of USTT. With all of the sessions that we have released about relationships, talking about breakups just makes sense. Breakups can be super challenging and it's a topic that we all can relate to. We get into what the healing process can look like during a breakup and how it can be similar to the grieving process. Self-care is also important along the healing journey and therapy can be a great way to kickoff your new self care routine if you are recently getting out of a relationship. Make sure to share this session with friends or family who may need some comfort and support during this time!

Hey ya'll! In this session we are talking all being being single! As 20-somethings there are pressures to be in a relationship which can make those who are single feel like they are missing out, jealous, or even doubt themselves.  We dive into the topic of how to embrace being single in a variety of ways- whether you're ready to start dating around, want to get back into another relationship, or just want to happy with being with yourself...this episode is for you!

We've spent a lot of time discussing our own therapeutic and professional perspectives of what Individual Therapy is like, but what about Couples & Relationship Therapy? After all, we are therapist's trained in Marriage & Family Therapy! During this session we explore common things to expect in Couples Therapy in terms of what a therapist might expect of their client's, things that are addressed and explored in therapy, as well as common issues partners might come to therapy for including the breakdown of communication issues, types of abuse, infidelity, life transitions, uncovering unhealthy cycles and patterns within the relationship, etc. We also take the time to explain how Relationship Therapy isn't only for couples, but that it can be a place for any type of relationship including a friendship, family, or roommates and how it can be just as important for the relationship. 

"Forgive and Forget" is a common phrase we often hear, but what does that really mean? What are we necessarily forgiving and what are we forgetting? During this session, we get to unpack the interesting and very relatable topic of Forgiveness. We have all been in a situation where we were hurt by someone else close to us and we've either had to make the tough decision to forgive the person to help release the hurt and resentment we've been holding onto, or to continue moving forward without it. In this session, you will hear us explain our own meaning of Forgiveness and what it looks like, and open up about our own tough experiences with Forgiveness and what it did for us. We also get the chance to explain the many benefits of Forgiveness work, what it looks like in therapy, and the stages of it to help break down the actual process.
