   #50: Ask Justin (For Therapists): What Do You Do When Both People in a Relationship Feel They’re Right?

   Welcome to Ask Justin, where Justin Michel, MA, MSc, RP, RMFT, our founder and CEO, shares insights on common misconceptions, offers a real look at what therapy actually involves, and answers your questions about mental health, therapy, or just being human… all in a quick, digestible format. In this episode of Ask Justin, Justin answers one of your real questions: "How do you respond when both partners in couples therapy have completely different versions of reality? (Example: One partner says, I shut down because you attack me. The other says, I attack because you never listen. How do you find truth when both people feel completely justified?)"

   #49: Are We Burned Out From Trying to Keep Up? | Maddy, Registered Therapist

   BOOK A SESSION WITH MADDY: https://bbtherapy.ca/maddy Top Specialties: ADHD, School Issues, Addiction/Substance Abuse, OCD, Life Transitions, and Relationship Issues Maddy is a therapist offering individual, couple, and family therapy in Mississauga and virtually by phone or video. She supports clients navigating ADHD, school issues, addiction and substance abuse, OCD, life transitions, and relationship challenges. In this episode, Maddy explores the pressure so many of us feel to keep moving forward, figure out what's next, and live up to the expectations around us. Maddy shares how social media, career pressures, and the constant stream of advice can make it difficult to hear our own voice, especially during major life transitions. From there, she digs into burnout, before exploring connection, mindfulness, and what we can do when we feel stuck, overwhelmed, or like the people around us don't fully understand what we're going through. Please note that each of these practitioners is fully trained and licensed. If you're looking for someone whose services are covered by your insurance, check their profile for full details.
