  • Thank you!

    Trever here. I am so grateful to all of the listeners to the Therapist's Invitation, past, present, and future. As I reflect back on this project with Dr. Mayfield I am grateful for the opportunities and that even three years after we packed away the microphones it is still having a meaningful impact on people's lives.

  • Do It Well And Don't Compare Episode
    How do you respond when someone else succeeds? Do you get a sinking feeling in your gut? Or do you react out of anger or jealousy? Or are you able to set aside those feelings and be grateful for their wins?
    Sometimes when we are confronted with others’ success we worry that there won’t be a chance for us. However, that is just not true. So how do we reframe our mindsets so that we can celebrate with others, and find our own way.
    Dr. Mark and Trever discuss the ways that comparison has impacted their own lives and how they have worked through to a different way.

  • Philosophy Of Plenty
    When you see someone else’s success, what is your first response?
    Do you respond with anger, judgment, jealousy? Are you overcome with feelings of disappointment or sorrow about your own life?
    Or are you able to celebrate with them? Using their success as an inspiration and catalyst for your own growth.
    When we discuss the philosophy of plenty, it is also important to confront our own belief in lack. We must look at how we define success and make sure that we aren’t focused on how we might miss out.
    Join Dr. Mark and Trever as they invite you to look around you for opportunities, check your own beliefs about abundance, and redefine your idea of success.

  • Burnout
    Burnout is kind of a trendy word right now. It refers to that feeling you get when you are doing too much and you can't keep up. Similar to the idea of a candle burning at both ends, or being spread thin. As if you just don't have enough "you" left at the end of each day.
    It can be a serious problem that gets in the way of your normal activities, family, work, and life. In this episode of The Therapist's Invitation, Dr. Mark and Trever discuss what burnout has looked like in their own lives, what can cause it, and what can help.
