Sarah Fay and I wrap up our conversation about her mental health misdiagnoses, and what's happened since her book, Pathological: The True Story of Six Diagnoses, was published. I'll then share a story of my questionable medical diagnosis. If you've totally relinquished the reins of your care, or you feel uncomfortable asserting yourself or asking numerous questions as it pertains to your mental or physical health, please listen in. The topic is heavy, but we have a lot of fun as well!

Tara interviews Andrea Largent MSW SFT about how she came to be a therapist with her intuitive foot in the therapeutic world. They discuss how often times highly intuitive people can be misdiagnosed early on in their lives and then go on to believe that something is wrong with them. Andrea discusses how she came to develop her own therapeutic practice in a field where practitioners veer away from speaking about the spiritual world for fear of losing credibility.
