  • When it hits close to home

    I’ve know Adam for quite some time but like most of the people in his life, didn’t know the details of his mental health. He always came across as the happy go lucky, life of the party type of guy. He could walk into any room and walk out with a new best friend. So when I found out the extent through this podcast, it made me take a look at my own mental health. His prospective is something you would hear from your best friend than from a cold clinical psychologist. If these episodes don’t h... more

Lisa, Lisa, Lisa....Can You Please - Help & Hypnotize Me? with Lisa Shook
Q: What is hypnosis and how does it actually work in practice?
Hypnosis is a natural state of heightened focus where the conscious mind settles, allowing access to the subconscious, where memories and beliefs reside; a professional helps guide the person while ensuring they remain in control and remember what matters.
Practical Skills for Everyday Mental Health
Q: What makes progress in therapy meaningful if improvement isn't linear?
Progress is seen in heightened awareness, greater functioning, and a sustained commitment to change, even if some days feel harder; the goal is to expand the life and capabilities of the person, not to achieve perfection.
Practical Skills for Everyday Mental Health
Q: How do you apply these skills in a session with clients?
I start with gentle grounding around cognitive distortions, then use collaborative questioning to examine evidence, and gradually introduce practice with skills like distinguishing facts from feelings to reduce vulnerability during therapy.
