   Host Skylar Bytendorp interviews Utah therapist April O’neill about what led her to therapy, her MSW from the University of Utah (2017), and building her own practice after Utah’s licensing requirements. April shares past experience working in prisons and with criminal-justice-involved clients, including people with sex offense convictions, and her current focus on anxiety and OCD. They discuss reasons anxiety has risen, including post-COVID changes and ideas from The Anxious Generation about kids’ internet access, overprotection, smartphones, and social media.

She recommends books (The Psychology of Money, A Liberated Mind, Spark, and The Read-Aloud Handbook), compares reading formats, and outlines mental health harms (too much social media, lack of purpose, victim mentality) and helpful practices (walks, thought defusion, reading/quiet hobbies and connection). 00:34 Why She Became a Therapist 04:17 Why Anxiety Is Rising 06:42 Kids and Smartphones 08:27 ACT and Core Values 18:48 Social Media and Attention 21:06 Building a Reading Habit 23:59 Starting Therapy Fears 24:31 Finding the Right Therapist 26:20 Top Mental Health Threats 29:00 Small Habits Build Change 30:34 Social Media and Connection 36:42 ACT Diffusion Skills 39:47 Reading and Quiet Hobbies 📲 Special thanks to our guest: April O'neillBe sure to check them out on:Instagram: @theantioptimisttherapistYoutube:  ⁨@theantioptimisttherapist⁩  (https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UCgiJid5cKX_RBbvYH9K8fXw) Website: https://seconddraftpsychotherapy.com/🙌Big thanks to Utah Podcast Studio for filming!
