From struggling to thriving: managing fears, anxieties, and worries with Michael Heady, LCPC

Accepting negative stories about myself and questioning my abilities, Disengaging and using safety crutches

Few times we have the opportunity to see how therapists walk the walk, put into action what they know about managing fears, anxieties, and worries, and what it means to make a shift from struggling to thriving.

In this personal, relatable, and real conversation, I chat with Michael Heady, LCPC, and discuss how the fears of making mistakes, having high standards and imposter syndrome show up and how we all can learn to handle them effectively.⁠
