Episode 14: Scared To Leave Your CMH Job? ME TOO!! [featuring Victoria Rodriguez]
Scared about leaving your Community Mental Health Job?
I was too! I think we all are to some degree. It makes sense that when we feel comfortable and "secure," we struggle to embrace the fear of the unknown no matter how badly we want to.
Community Mental Health definitely has a role to play but unfortunately, the system is broken, which means you end up struggling with: Resources, $$, time, and BURN OUT!
In this episode, I talk with Victoria Rodriguez, a Ph.D. student at the University of New Orleans and owner of "My Car Is My Office," about the problems with Community Mental Health (CMH), but more importantly, how clients and therapists both suffer because of the systemic injustice and lack of resources.
More about Victoria:
Victoria Rodriguez (she/her/hers) provides professional consulting and program development services for community mental health agencies and provides telehealth counseling for individuals with health anxiety throughout Louisiana. As a Ph.D. student at the University of New Orleans, she has published research on barriers to treatment in community mental health and the theory-application gap in nonclinical settings. She is passionate about making community mental health sustainable for clinicians and participants.
