Welcome to the first episode of Working Out the Inside: The Myths, Truths, and Essential Work of Psychotherapy.  I'm Andrew Nargolwala, and I've been a psychotherapist for more than 16 years.  I run a group private practice in Cresskill, NJ and also work for a large public agency.  I hope with this podcast to help demystify the process of therapy and make it more understandable for a general audience.   This segment talks generally about what psychotherapy is, what does it focus on, what should you look for in a therapist, and the core questions that lead to both symptom relief and self-discovery.  Future topics will address topics such as depression, anxiety, addiction, relationships, parenting, and more.  I welcome your questions and feedback as to what you would like to hear discussed in the future.
