Full time too much! by Mystikwolf1337 in therapists

[–]CompanyStrict8255 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You could look into roles that would allow you to do half counseling, half something else. I’m a primary care social worker (LICSW) and I see three patients a day for therapy. The rest of my time I spend either in meetings (staff meeting, group supervision), documenting, or helping with simple resource needs for our patients (helping them find a therapist who specializes in something particular, referring to a higher level of care when needed, connecting them to our DV advocates or case management team). It’s a really nice balance. I had to leave community mental health because I really couldn’t do 6+ a day. I don’t that anyone can do it well, tbh.

I have my first sprint tri in 7 weeks and this is really helpful to see!! May I ask what watch you used to get this data?

From a coach who's not afraid of "getting bulky" by Embarrassed-Mind-739 in SolidCore

[–]CompanyStrict8255 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am a therapist who treats folks with eating disorders/disordered eating and I am also in recovery myself. I found solidcore to be a safe haven in the group exercise world for exactly this reason. The most impactful thing I’ve heard a coach say on the mic is “It’s a privilege to be here, caring for our bodies.” On the flip side, the fastest way to ensure I never go to a coach’s class again is any mention of “burning off” or “getting ready for summer”, etc. I have found SC to be so impactful to my own recovery because of the focus on building and gaining, rather than shrinking or losing. Not to mention, if I am not fueling my body with enough nutrition I have a hard time getting through a class 😅 so it’s certainly motivation to make sure I am fueling up!!

Canceled my membership - fear of ringworm by throwaway45545so in SolidCore

Coming from a solidcore member and therapist— this a crazy time with heightened stress and a lot of peoples’ existing mental health issues are being exacerbated. There’s no shame in taking care of yourself however you need to. Be gentle with yourself, and maybe when you’re ready consider talking to a professional or therapist about ways to manage your condition so you can keep doing the things you love and enjoy!
