Turns out, how you spend your time right after talking to your therapist matters a lot. We asked two mental health experts why that is:
Recently, I was chatting with a friend about how things had been going with me and my therapist, when she made a simple, off-hand comment about her own therapy routine: After her appointment, she always walks across the street to the grocery store.
The conversation made me realize that I, too, do the same thing every time I see my therapist — namely, I listen to paranormal podcasts and go to the farmer’s market — and doing so helps me feel like I have the chance to decompress. Though it might not seem like much, finding even a moment of quiet after therapy can help me rehash what was covered during the last session.
If you’d rather sit quietly with a cup of tea than run errands after therapy, don’t worry — there’s no one correct way to spend your time after therapy. “There isn’t a prescription for how somebody might [reflect on their session],”a psychologist and the American Psychological Association’s director of research and special projects says.
