Two Shrinks and a Mic
Ep. 9 - Inside the First Session Understanding Anxiety from Two Perspectives
What really happens when you walk into a mental health professional’s office for the first time? Dr. Andrew Rosen, psychologist, and Dr. David Gross, psychiatrist, share how they each approach that initial meeting — from building trust and clarifying what “anxiety” really means, to distinguishing between psychological, situational, and biological causes.
They discuss the importance of creating a therapeutic alliance, the surprising strengths hidden in obsessive thinking, and why anxiety disorders are often highly treatable in a relatively short period of time. This conversation offers insight, reassurance, and a reminder that you are not alone in what you are experiencing.
