Dr. Andrew Rosen and Dr. David Gross talk through why choosing a type of therapy can feel so confusing and why so much of the work comes down to the beliefs people carry with them from earlier in life. They reflect on how psychotherapy evolved from rigid models into approaches that focus more directly on how people think, interpret events, and act on those interpretations.
The conversation spends time on irrational beliefs and expectations that quietly shape mood, motivation, and self worth. They use everyday examples, clinical stories, and a few familiar metaphors to show how people can get stuck believing that one failure defines a lifetime or that happiness is something external that will eventually arrive.
They also explore how depression can grow out of mismatched expectations, negative self talk, and faulty assumptions about the future, and why noticing what is already present in life can be surprisingly difficult. Throughout, they return to the idea of therapy as a safe space to question long held beliefs and experiment with thinking and behaving differently without judgment.
