5: Being Married to a Therapist

In today's episode you'll get a raw and personal inside look into what it's like to be in a relationship with a therapist. I will be talking to my therapist-friend Leora, and explore her journey of what it was like to become a therapist and how that changed her relationship dynamics with her husband. We will also talk about what makes a great relationship great, how to have difficult conversations with our partners and the role of expectations in our relationship.

Leora Lerba is an Australian and a therapist working in the San Francisco Bay Area and seeing clients all over California. Her specialties include working with couples, harm reduction for folks wanting to change their relationships with substances and Adult ADHD.

Humor is a huge part of who she is, and therapy with Leora definitely involves some laughing. Outside of being a therapist, she loves nature and getting outdoors. If she wasn't a therapist she'd be a sculptor, and she loves to cook. 

If you’d like to connect with Leora, you can find her at www.leoralerba.com. Her email is therapy@leoralerba.com. If you’re interested in working with her, she offers a free therapy consultation.
