This week on Unpacked we are chatting with guest Alex Cameron, Psychotherapist  with a Masters of Social Work at his own practice. We chat with Alex about masculinity, vulnerability and the barriers in mens mental health. Alexander  has a wide and varied wealth of professional experience. He was the coordinator of a provincially funded domestic violence counselling program that focused on males that had been the primary victim of violence from another. During this time, Alex also worked with perpetrators of violence in both group and individual counselling of both genders. We chat with Alex about his life and own relationship to his emotions and what he sees in his practice as the challenges for men in accessing mental health help.  With a unique instagram handle the @thetattooedtherapist he shares how representation is important for men too and regularly works with both men and boys to overcome toxic masculinity. Alex shares his perspective with us on how we can raise more emotionally aware boys and what walks us through what counselling is like for anyone (but in particular) the concerns he hears from men. Alex specializes in anxiety, depression, stress, and relationships.

This week on Unpacked Evan and Tara talk the enneagram types and defence mechanisms. We are all trying to avoid something, most of the time unknowingly. Becoming more aware of our patterns and learning to accept what defence mechanisms can bring freedom from the very thing we are avoiding. Evan and Tara chat about the unconscious strategies we use to deal with uncomfortable situations. We talk about the enneagram types and the most commonly used defence strategies for each type. And we discuss how doing some of the work to be more conscious brings healing and awareness to your life. Plus we talk about questions we can ask ourselves.
