Supporting The Whole Family

In this episode, Melissa and Susan are joined by Isha and Lori of Insightful Counseling in Sparta and Cookeville for a conversation about collaboration, community care, and the growing need for support in rural mental health services. They talk about what it looks like to serve children, adults, and families in the Upper Cumberland, with a special focus on autism, caregiver stress, school support, and the challenges families face while waiting for evaluations and services. It is a thoughtful conversation about meeting people where they are, building better resources in small communities, and why supporting caregivers matters just as much as supporting the child. Remember that listening to this podcast is not therapy. It might be therapeutic, but it isn’t a replacement for good mental health treatment.
