The Counseling Sessions: Overcoming Anxiety & Panic Attacks, Volume 1
Louise Palmer · 2016
🎙 Narrated by Sandra Garston
66/100
👎 Skip It
An unusual, genuinely useful format — dramatized therapy sessions with annotated notes from a credentialed psychologist — that teaches technique through modeling rather than lecture, though it's a niche approach that won't suit everyone. Narration quality couldn't be pinned down beyond the credit, so consider that an open question before you commit.
