Supervision Support

To my listeners, let me be the one to tell you. You don’t have to have it all together. Profession and training doesn’t exempt you from making mistakes. It doesn’t shield you from your bias, it doesn’t shield you from judgments, it doesn’t shield you from finding yourself in an awful position in life. And if you’re in need of help, I urge you to seek it. You are as deserving of help as your client!

This episode helps normalize our normal lives and encourage you to take care of self!
