Published: Jan. 7, 2022, 5 p.m.

The process of therapy can sometimes seem a bit opaque. What exactly happens in therapy? How does it work? And which approach is right for which issues?

We hear stories about what happened when a city took a bold step toward providing free, virtual mental health services to its residents. Also: what happens when politics and therapy collide; how Freud's brainchild \u2014 psychoanalysis \u2014 is still relevant; and what it's like to grow up as the child of two shrinks.
