    Give Yourself Permission To Grieve with Christal Pennic

    Join us for a heartfelt conversation with Christal R Pennic, LPC-MHSP, a licensed mental health therapist who specializes in grief and bereavement. Chris opens up about her journey with loss and how it has transformed her approach to mental health care. Together, we explore the coexistence of joy and sorrow, diving into how acceptance isn't about being "okay" but learning to live with a new reality, and learning to give yourself permission to grieve. Chris shares insightful techniques for addressing negative self-talk and reframing cognitive patterns to tackle the guilt that often accompanies loss.

    Love Is A Verb

    Imagine if we all treated love as an action rather than just a fleeting emotion. This week on "This Doesn't Count as Therapy," we draw from Dr. Bell Hooks' seminal work, "All About Love," to challenge the conventional wisdom about love and relationships. By redefining love as a verb, we explore how commitment, responsibility, and intentional effort can transform our connections with others.  This episode is a heartfelt call to show up intentionally in all our interactions, to celebrate the diverse ways love manifests beyond romance.
