Today, Jess and Caroline call in an expert - who also happens to be one of Jess’s closest friends: Kate Berman, AMFT - to discuss your WHATADOs just in time for that awkward family dinner. They start off strong with a question about whether the listener should join her boyfriend’s family vacation even after his father seemed less than pleased with the idea. Then they move into a question about unexpected divorce, which leads them down a rabbit hole on the pain of being misrepresented. Kate shares her insights on when couples therapy is most valuable before the three dive into their last juicy WHATADO: all about if you’re having enough sex in your relationship. What if we divest from society’s expectations? What if we accept that there are seasons to our sex lives? They explore it all, just for you. Kate is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT) who is passionate about helping clients increase self-awareness, harness their innate strengths, and ultimately improve the quality of their relationships - with self, loved ones, the environment, and their sense of purpose. Drawing on her interdisciplinary background in psychology, yoga, and public health, she helps clients explore the root causes of their challenges and the beliefs that keep them feeling stuck.
