I guess my top goal, especially in my practice, is to just make sure that they're comfortable with me, because they don't, they're not used to having that comfort.
Ever wondered how social media affects young men's mental health? Hosts Kristin Walker and Frank King, also known as The Mental Comedian, tackle this pressing issue with guest Cody Gauthier, ACSW. Cody brings a wealth of experience from his work in individual therapy for children, adolescents, and young adults. His diverse roles across various settings—like inpatient and outpatient hospitals, residential programs, and schools—give him unique insights into the mental health challenges young men face today.
In this episode, the trio dives into the impact of social media, focusing on how it exacerbates issues like toxic masculinity and bullying. Cody emphasizes the need for empathy and self-compassion in treatment, sharing practical advice on how to foster these qualities in young men. They also discuss motivational interviewing techniques that can help set and achieve mental health goals. If you're curious about the intersection of technology and mental health, this episode offers valuable perspectives and actionable strategies.
