This week on ShrinkChicks, Emmalee and Jen are talking about the challenges that can come when people in our lives - a friend, partner, family member - are struggling with their mental health. They dive right into your feedback and answer your questions about ways to suggest therapy to someone who is unwilling to try and the nuances that can exist, having hard conversations, setting firm boundaries, the importance of self-regulation, what to do when someone we care for starts isolating themselves, how to provide support while also protecting your own mental health, and a Dear Em & Jen about having a reaction to a stoic partner's vulnerability. Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action!
