Manage episode 328206181 series 2789693
In this episode of the HUMAN First podcast, Dr. Courtney dives into the differences between therapy and mental health coaching with an excellent (and super qualified) mental health coach, Elissa Burdick.
Here is a list of the topics/questions they discuss:
- Elissa describes herself as a human outside of being a mental health coach (ACEs and difficult upbringing)
- Why she wanted to help others (hint: she got help too & the story is great)
- What is “mental health coaching”?
- What are the differences between mental health coaching and licensed professional therapy?
- Elissa discusses her path from Master’s level therapist to mental health coach instead and how she treats “sub-clinical” issues her clients are facing
- The possible credentials and specific abilities of coaches (and how much this matters!)
- The biggest mental health problem we face as human beings today: Elissa’s answer will really surprise you (can you guess it?)
- Why mental health coaches are far more focused on actionable skills than what many consider to be “talk therapy” in the clinical model of mental health care
- The mess that is the mental health care in America
- Which clients are appropriate for mental health coaching and who are not (this screening is so important!)
- Sign of a good coach: Coordination of care between coaches, therapists, doctors and more
- Why Elissa believes more and more therapists are becoming coaches
