The Subpar Psychologist | The Mental Health Stuff
Why should you care about mental health? For the same reason you would care about physical health. Because the mind/body connection is more than some new-age psychobabble, it's a two-way street of experience and consequence. One can affect the other. In this episode, I break down connections between mental and physical health. Next, I discuss some barriers that I've noticed that may keep someone from seeking out a therapist. From there, I offer some tips on how to find a mental health clinician and get the most out of your time with them. I also give some basic background to the various mental health professionals one could seek out if they needed help.All of this I serve up with some experience, education, and a few cringe-worthy cheesy moments that I didn't have time to edit out.
