Therapy and Mental Health

Today, we’re diving headfirst into the world of therapy and mental health. Whether you’re a therapy enthusiast, a skeptic, or just itching to learn more, trust me, this episode is worth a listen.

Our extraordinary guest is the one and only Britt Frank. This woman is a force to be reckoned with! Not only does she have all the credentials as a clinician, educator, and trauma specialist, but she has lived through her own battles, conquered substance abuse, and navigated her personal mental health journey like a true warrior.

With a BA from Duke University and an M.S.W. from the University of Kansas, Britt is a force of nature. She’s a somatic experiencing practitioner and a level three expert in the internal family systems therapeutic model. From being a primary therapist at a drug and alcohol treatment center to an inpatient therapist at a children’s psychiatric hospital, Britt has seen it all and is now killing it in her own private practice.

In this episode, we’re tackling tough parenting situations and delivering information that’s not only easy to digest but also action-oriented. Join me and Britt as we embark on this conversation of self-discovery and empowerment through proven mental health strategies.

“How do we live in the non safety reality? The first step is validating that it’s hard. And it’s scary. And that means more than ever, being isolated, and disconnected are just not an option.”

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• Stuck is a starting point.
• Red flags for high performers and high achievers.
• Anxiety is not designed to hurt us.
• Tools parents can implement to feel safer.
• How to offer support to someone not actively seeking it.
• What are some of your favorite social media accounts?
• How do you know if you’re sharing information in a positive way or passive-aggressively?
