Episode notes
Why does your therapist keep asking questions instead of giving answers? Why can changing the way you think feel uncomfortable — even when it’s meant to help? In this episode, Dr. Yadegarfard explores Socratic questioning and reframing, two core therapeutic processes that sit at the heart of how psychological change happens.
This episode focuses on how therapists work collaboratively with thoughts, not to argue with them or replace them with “positive thinking,” but to gently explore meaning, reduce rigidity, and support emotional regulation. You’ll learn why this questioning style can feel challenging, how reframing expands perspective without denying pain, and how these skills gradually help the nervous system settle.
