Helen Hicks on Healing: Mental Health, Family Dynamics, and Self-Compassion

If you see yourself as broken, as you see yourself as less than if you see yourself as you know, undeserving, and all these other things that you know, people put upon themselves and they say: well, I'm not, because this was my history and these are the things that I did, and you know this is what I didn't have. And I think that's a next step in that process, because so many times I have worked with people and our time together has been cut short because they couldn't see themselves as deserving of something better than the conditions they were currently in.
Ever wondered how our beliefs shape our mental health? In this engaging episode of 'Genuine Life Recovery', Jodie Stevens sits down with therapist and author Helen Hicks to explore the multifaceted world of mental well-being. Helen shares her personal journey growing up with a mother who had paranoid schizophrenia and how it influenced her path to becoming a therapist.
This heartfelt conversation dives into the impact of Covid on the mental health industry and the shortage of professionals available to help those in need. Helen offers practical advice on finding hope during tough times, relieving anxiety through proven techniques, and transforming dysfunctional beliefs and behaviors. She also highlights the importance of self-compassion and positive thought patterns in the healing process. For parents, there are valuable insights on simplifying the complexities of parenting to raise mentally healthy children.
If you're looking for a blend of personal anecdotes and actionable strategies for mental health recovery, this episode is a must-listen.
