In today’s episode of Embracing Your Season, Paige welcomes Sara Baldwin, the Co-Founder and Executive Director of Story House Ministries, a licensed mental health counselor, wife, and mother of 4. Paige and Sara dive deep into the practice of therapy and how knowing your story intimately; the good, the bad, and the ugly, is paramount to a healthy life. They discuss common misconceptions surrounding therapy, how prioritizing our own healing is a gift to those around us, and how a thriving life mentally, emotionally, and spiritually comes down to connection with others (and Jesus).
Takeaways:

When choosing a therapist:
- Ask around! Referrals are a great way to find trusted options.
- When you are paired with a counselor - know that you don’t have to stick with them if they aren’t a good fit! Your counselor will not be offended if you want to work with someone else. Think of it like speed-dating: Try a few out before you decide who you feel comfortable enough to be vulnerable with and begin healing.
- AACC.net is an amazing resource if you don’t know where to start!
Recognize how the gift of counseling isn’t just for you, but for the people around you who you love!
- You helping yourself prevents generational bondage from transferring to your children, your spouse, and others who are close to you.
Ask yourself: Am I resistant to counseling? Why is that?
- Maybe it’s your personality type and you don’t want to be transparent, maybe it’s financial, maybe there’s a spiritual warfare component - the truth is, there will always be reasons why you don’t want to or can’t enter into counseling. But here’s a bigger truth: Healing will never come if you keep making excuses.
- When you start focusing on how your life and happiness could improve with counseling, look at your excuses and see what can be renegotiated to make room for it.
