In this episode of A Simple Therapy Podcast, Sindee Gozansky unpacks the overthinking so many therapists experience but rarely discuss openly, tracing it back to perfectionism, fear of causing harm, and countertransference. She offers a few gentle shifts to soften the loop rather than suppress it: naming it out loud, separating reflection from rumination, leaning on supervision, and trusting presence over performance.
