Psychotherapist Joshua Fletcher provides an introduction to therapy, outlining common reasons why people seek this support and delving into the relationship between therapists and their clients.

Today, we talk about mental health more than ever before, and more of us are openly seeking talking therapy without fear of stigma or reprieve.

But therapy can seem confusing and daunting if you're new to it.

In his 2024 book, And How Does That Make You Feel?, Joshua Fletcher uses both his experience as a therapist and of having therapy himself to uncover some of the mysteries of this practice.

Fletcher talks about the techniques therapists use to look after their own mental health, details some of the most frequent issues people work through in therapy, and provides advice about how to choose a therapist.
