This week, Jessalynn is joined by Paige Mathison, a clinical counselor (and part-time comedian!) with a background in psychiatric nursing who now specializes in helping trauma-exposed professionals. Paige discusses what sparked her transition into counseling, from the limitations she faced in nursing to her profound desire to support her peers, to then suffering from her own mental health injury while at work. This journey not only deepened her commitment to destigmatizing mental health in healthcare but also shaped her holistic and empathetic approach to counseling. Through her story, Paige highlights the significance of tuning into our body awareness when healing from trauma, why she prioritizes incorporating humour into her practice, and how to break up with your counselor. Paige's insights shine a light on the complex journey of healing, the power of empathy, and why laughter really can be the best medicine.
