Mastermind Parenting Podcast What Your Therapist Really Thinks…
Therapy can be a big help for some people. But for stressed-out parents, healing our old wounds and stepping up for our kiddos often requires a different approach. One of my Masterminders, Dr. Shawn Hondorp, has experienced this disconnect from the inside. Shawn is an experienced clinical psychologist who isn’t satisfied with the tools and techniques of the traditional diagnostic therapy methods. She’s developing a new approach to improving mental health.
Shawn’s practices reject pathology and easy labels. Instead, they help you identify your old patterns of thoughts and feelings, understand why they were woven, and put them to work in ways that help rather than hinder your growth. I’m honored that working with me has helped her find the courage to share this new vision of what therapy can accomplish, and I can’t wait for you to learn about it!
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How a focus on efficiency and accomplishment can actually cost us - and our kiddos - more time and energy in the long run.
- The real reason why we struggle with negative self talk, and how that context can help you keep it from overwhelming you.
- Why pack leaders need other pack leaders they can lean on and grow with.
And much more!
