Demystify therapy! Humanize therapists! Normalize treatment!
My goals for this podcast are:
- To normalize and de-stigmatize mental illness and emotional pain
- HUMANIZE therapists by interviewing other mental health professionals
- Get the word out about treatment options
- Allow listeners to gain insight about what goes on in a therapist's mind
- Bust mental health myths
- Teach listeners things about therapy that should be general knowledge (e.g. parenting skills, self-care strategies, changing negative thoughts, etc)
- AND MOST IMPORTANTLY disseminate this information far and wide (something that has been difficult for me due to my small budget)
When I was about nine years old, I was gifted a handheld recorder. I carried it around with me everywhere, with blank cassette tapes, ready to capture my every word. It has taken a while, but I am finally making this dream come true, step-by-step, with this podcast.
I have been a therapist since 2011. I live, work and play in El Paso, Texas...on the edge of the US Mexico border. I have a history of anxiety and depression, personally and in my family. Most people are afraid to admit things like this because mental health is taboo and stigmatized. The constant use of words like "crazy", "insane", or "loca/o" perpetuate the stigma against mental illness and treatment. I have a strong calling to bring awareness to mental well-being and creating content on this podcast is enjoyable and rewarding for me. The information on this podcast is a compilation of my own knowledge and experience, and you can trust that the information is coming from a reputable and highly trained therapist.
Spread #mentalhealthawareness & de-mystify therapy.
By reaching this 1st goal, I also plan to use the funds to create other pages to encourage more of the general public to become listeners. More listeners=more mental health awareness!
