Depression is no joke! As therapists, we are just as susceptible to this experience of prolonged sadness as anyone else. Depression is an inability to return to joy from sadness. Sadness is an experience of loss. When we have lost something or someone in our life and cannot return to a joyful state, we have the potential to get stuck in depression.
My name is Monica Mouer, and I am a licensed therapist and supervisor as well as the director of the Center for Transformation. We exist to resource therapists with skills for personal growth that leads to professional outcomes.
We have discovered that the implementation of the Life Model in our lives as therapists has led to more fulfillment in our personal life and relationship and amazing insight and growth in the lives of our clients as we model and teach these practices to them.
This episode discusses something that therapists don't want to admit as a vulnerability. What if you are a therapist who is helping others overcome depression, but you find yourself getting stuck in depressive thoughts and feelings. Listen in to this episode to find out you are not alone and to discover what you can do about it!
