Ep 04 - Doing Our Own Work: Mental Health and Workplace Culture with Rebecca Ching, LMFT, PCC, Certified IFS Therapist

It’s something of a cliché that being a therapist comes with the obligation to do your own work. And it happens to be a cliché I agree with. And if you’re listening to this podcast, I’m guessing you do too.But what happens when the institutions and systems that train us, employ us, and regulate us act as barriers to actually doing that self-work?Today I’m talking with psychotherapist and certified leadership coach, Rebecca Ching. In addition to therapy and coaching, Rebecca also has extensive experience with supervision, teaching, and advocacy in the mental health field and we’re going to dig into dysfunctional mental health workplace culture, how we got here, and why it’s so hard to change it.Rebecca Ching is a psychotherapist, leadership developer, writer, speaker, and host of The Unburdened Leader podcast, where she goes deep with leaders on how the burdens they carry inspire their life’s work, how they still threaten to take them out, and how they rise from them.Unburdened Leadership™ is the work Rebecca has honed to take leaders and entrepreneurs through so that they can have greater impact and legacy.She is also the CEO and founder of Potentia Family Therapy, Inc. and is a Certified Daring Way™ Facilitator and Consultant and Certified Internal Family Systems Therapist and IFS Approved Supervisor.Rebecca also leads, Rebecca Ching Leadership Coaching and Consulting, and is where she develops leaders through coaching and workshop experiences.Listen to the full episode to hear:How grad school, licensure requirements, and low wages pave the way for early-career burnout Why the professional culture of mental health needs to acknowledge the wounds that lead people into the fieldHow the current educational and licensing systems create barriers to clinicians without financial privilegeWhy the emphasis on efficiency from leadership, funders, and the culture leads to therapists who can’t or won’t do self work Learn more about Rebecca Ching, LMFT, PCC, Certified IFS Therapist:RebeccaChing.comThe Unburdened LeaderInstagram: @rebeccachingmftFacebook: @rebeccachingmftLearn more about Riva Stoudt:Into the Woods CounselingInstagram
