In this episode of the HUMAN First podcast, Dr. Courtney shares space with a fellow licensed mental health professional who struggles with her mental health, Megan McKernan. Megan is a LCSW in the state of Maryland who owns a practice called Clarity Wellness Solutions. On her website, she says “Everyone has their own trauma. What matters is how we deal with it” and that is essentially what we discuss today!

Here is a list of the topics/questions they discuss:

  • Megan lets us know her astrological sign and who she is as a person
  • Megan believes mental health care is a right, not a privilege
  • Defining PTSD and C-PTSD for the audience
  • As a therapist that struggles, what does that look like for Megan?
  • Setting boundaries while recovering (SO important!)
  • What was it like suffering from childhood trauma and now working with children?
  • How meditation can happen anywhere, even in the car (yessss)
  • What does mindfulness look for Megan
  • Things Megan did that she thought were self care but were actually autopilot
  • Being mindful of the intention of a coping skill (such an important message)
  • Different types of boundaries are there and what worked for Megan
  • Difference between rigid, flexible, and semi-permeable boundaries
  • How showing up authentically validates others inadvertently
  • What fighting the stigma against mental health looks like
  • As a therapist how to push through for your clients
  • Breaking down myths about PTSD
