0:00.0	Welcome to the Very Well Mind podcast. We've interviewed over 100 authors, experts, entrepreneurs, athletes, musicians, and others to help you learn strategies to care for your mental health.
0:22.9	This episode is hosted by psychotherapist and bestselling author Amy Morin. Now let's get into the episode.
0:48.3	Okay. Have you ever wondered if one hour of therapy would be enough to help you feel better?
0:54.4	Or have you ever worried that your loved one with a mental health issue or substance abuse problem needs more than just therapy? Is going to a hospital or a rehab center the only option? There are actually

1:51.0	about different levels of treatment is personal development coach Mike Baer. He's a New York Times

2:08.0	and his mission is to help other people who are struggling with mental health issues or substance
2:11.6	abuse problems. Some of the things he talks about today are how to find quality help when you need
