    Ep. 19 The Trialogues Podcast: Mutual Recovery

    Ep. 19 The Trialogues Podcast: Mutual Recovery

    In this episode Mary and I talk through ‘mutual recovery’ and mention ‘islands of clarity’. Mutual recovery is the idea that there is a dialogue between people on one side of the spectrum of mental health with those on the other, but really we are all working on ourselves in a variety of ways. So the dialogue is really between two people working on themselves.

    We also challenge the idea that clinicians are “sane” and clients “ill” by talking through ways in which any one of us might be triggered. Mental illness is part of the human experience and part of our innate abilities is to understand people’s suffering because we have the capacity within ourselves to suffer and struggle.

    In our next episode we are going to talk about some of the experiences that Mary had with clients at Windhorse and what she has learned, so make sure to subscribe.

    Ep. 18 The Trialogues Podcast: Challenges are Embedded in Life

    Ep. 18 The Trialogues Podcast: Challenges are Embedded in Life

    Continuing our conversation around identity, diagnosis, and setting precedent, our clinical director Phoebe and I talk about how people should have the right to self-identify. We discuss the reality of challenges being more embedded in life than a mental health diagnosis would suggest. And Phoebe talks about how our Windhorse model allows us to more richly connect and resonate with the challenges and struggles that family members face on a daily or weekly basis. This leads us to a more in-depth talk about the Windhorse program.

    Ep. 17 The Trialogues Podcast: Within Identity, Is a Mental Health Diagnosis Helpful?

    Ep. 17 The Trialogues Podcast: Within Identity, Is a Mental Health Diagnosis Helpful?

    This episode is a continuation of episode 16 with our clinical director Phoebe. I begin by asking, in thinking about removing rigid structures around identity, when is a mental health diagnosis helpful? We again think about setting precedent both in the legal sense and in the mental health world, and come to think about how this impacts both the clients being served and the service providers who are trying to care for their clients.

    Ep. 16 The Trialogues Podcast: Changing your Opinion

    Ep. 16 The Trialogues Podcast: Changing your Opinion

    In this episode I sit down with our clinical director Phoebe, and we start the conversation thinking about two articles that she read recently. One about supreme court rulings and the other about the passing of time - both of which lead us through an interesting discussion of what it means to change your opinion and not have such rigid structures around identity.

    Ep. 14 The Trialogues Podcast: Recovery as a Journey of the Heart

    Ep. 14 The Trialogues Podcast: Recovery as a Journey of the Heart

     

    In thinking about working with conflict, hopelessness, and negativity Mary talks about an article by Patricia Deegan called “Recovery as a Journey of the heart.” Her article supports the dignity of those in recovery, the importance of regarding the journey as human, and the importance of connection to people. It’s an article that Mary gives to parents here at Windhorse and will be linked in the show notes. In the article Patricia talks about her journey through conflict, hopelessness, and despair and how all are a form of intelligence and learning. We end the episode with Mary going over the key points and takeaways for the article.
