Customer Reviews
More people should be listening to this
The importance of the ways which Dr. Anhalt normalizes therapy as she visually bridges the gap between physical and mental health cannot be overstated.
As a New York based therapist, this podcast is something I recommend to all of my clients. The uncomfortable reality is that change takes time and effort. It’s not always graceful but the views are worth the struggle of the climb. Dr. Anhalt leans into those truths and provides actionable advice to get results.
Bite size value from the great Dr. Emily Anhalt
I first learned about Dr. Anhalt and Coa through a business leadership program from Morning Brew and she’s one of the best minds in emotional wellness out there. So thrilled for Emotionally Fit to be here 👌
