Rejection Sensitivity

Healthy//Toxic

Healthy versus Toxic is a podcast where licensed mental health professionals explore what makes a relationship healthy or unhealthy. Our hosts aim to provide a scientifically informed perspective on what factors go into making healthy relationships, how to build secure attachment, and how to be a better parent, child, partner, or friend.
