@thechrishinton: Before choosing a therapist, ask them these three questions: 1. What is your framework for understanding why people suffer? 2. How do you know when therapy is actually working? 3. What do you believe the ultimate goal of therapy is? #therapy #MentalHealth #selfawareness #healing #personalgrowth
I had a therapist who once told me that her job was to work herself out of a job - to help me get to a place where I no longer needed her. I really appreciated that perspective.
You’re right, though. It’s so important to find a therapist who helps you develop all of those skills.
It’s interesting that you brought up the analogy of the villagers to describe parts work, too. I’ve been wrestling with those little boogers lately. I sometimes get stuck simply listening to them, rather than stepping into the role of leader and taking action.
What I find especially interesting is that in the outside world, I’m naturally a leader and a creative problem solver. I’m usually able to navigate different, sometimes opposing, perspectives, help people feel heard and understood, and still find a path forward. It’s fascinating how much easier that can be for others than it sometimes is for myself.

Agreed, the goal should always be giving the tools they need to handle what life throws at them. Not become dependent or just keep rehashing problems without solutions. Your talks are always insightful.

I’ve finally have a therapist that checks those boxes. Years ago, therapy helped my understand, recognize patterns and the why. I never asked the now what do I do with that. They didn’t open that door for me. I’m now in that place.

For me, I had to choose elevation over validation. Not everyone is truly self aware. Some are willing to elevate by being accountable, some are willing to sacrifice everything for validation. Life coaching is a heavy load.

I have days where I go I need to actually talk to someone for help with things then I ask who do I need to talk to for help with some things. then I have days where I go yeah I don't need to talk to anyone I will figure this out on my own. I know that growing up I was taught that my spirituality is not allowed to be talked about like it's taboo all because my narcissistic dad is uncomfortable with spirituality and everything he can't understand
