“As a volunteer crisis counselor having completed nearly 1,800 conversations with children, teens, and adults I continue to learn and grow. Many of which involve suicide prevention and creating a safe space for those struggling.
I’m, in my humble opinion, good at what I do though on some level I see myself as volunteer krill. Not a degreed professional. I know I leave those I speak with better the majority of the time though more needs to be done.
I have started listening today and will continue. My understanding of my role has changed. I see myself as an element of a fire team for Mental Health. (Thank you for that.) These podcasts have given me so much more in terms of understanding, language, metaphor, and analogy I know my conversations will improve exponentially.
Thank you”
