A mental health tips and insights podcast with Sam Dalton a licensed professional counselor. With the stigma surrounding mental health diminishing, more people are looking for direction on how to address their mental health. My goal with this podcast is to provide listeners with easy to implement mental health advice, from the perspective of a mental health professional who has seen what does and doesn't work. Weekly episodes will give you direction on how to improve your mental health.
Exploring values in therapy can be helpful with addressing mental health concerns. This episode looks at how value card sorting can help people identify what is and isn't important to them so they can know what to change. I also talk about the pitfalls of therapists imposing their own values in therapy.
