🎧 Explaining Experiential Avoidance: Why We Resist What We Feel - with CBT Therapist Carina Tudor Sfetea #therapytools #avoidance
This video explores how efforts to avoid difficult emotions can trap us in cycles of stress, anxiety, and disconnection — and how facing, rather than fixing, can lead to lasting change. In this episode, you can discover why letting go of control feels so uncomfortable, and which evidence-based tools can support you in doing it anyway.
