206: When Therapy Isn't Working, Try This Instead
Been going to therapy for months and still feel stuck? You're not alone — and it might not be you. In this episode, Dr. Stacey Krauss explains why weekly one-on-one therapy doesn't work for many teens and college students, how group therapy and higher-frequency care can actually move things faster, and how to speak up when sessions aren't landing. If you've ever thought "therapy just isn't for me," this one might change your mind.
