The Personal Pizza Podcast is a deliciously different podcast that merges clinical psychology, comedy, and pizza. Simcha Levenberg, a unique therapist with a love for baking pizza, invites guests to his home for a slice of pizza and a slice of life.
Each episode dives into a variety of topics that affect our mental health: cooking and emotional well-being, loneliness, psychedelics and metabolizing trauma (or not), large group awareness trainings, complicated bereavement, spiritual traps, and the complicated relationships we have with others (and ourselves) - while simultaneously crafting and sharing some fantastic homemade pizza.
This show is more than just food for thought – we are breaking bread to build connections. Mental health professionals, comedians, writers, and chefs sit around the table, making sense of confusing relationships, finding humor in unexpected places, and discovering the wisdom in our shared human experiences.
Come for the pizza, stay for the insights. Therapy is better with pizza, trust me.
