Established Mental Health Counselor and Anger Management Specialist Patrice Shavone Brown shares decades’ worth of counseling wisdom into one compelling read.
"It's hard, yet life is what you make it. And it is full of twists and turns," says Patrice.
Surviving in the Mental Health Jungle is both a love letter and a powerful guide to helping newly minted and aspiring mental health counselors carve their own path in the wilderness that is the mental health industry.
After centuries of being swept under the rug, mental health has taken center stage in the modern world, which is both a good and bad thing.
Good, because the aches of the mind are now given equal importance as the aches of the body. Bad, because many are now profiting off of others’ pain and struggles.
Self-proclaimed life coaches and gurus now claim they hold the key to unlocking a sound mind and ridding it of all the consequences of trauma. And yet, you’ll see them preaching dangerous nonsense to the vulnerable.
This is where mental health experts come in. And they come in droves.
Mental health counselling is becoming saturated by the minute. Unfortunately, not of counselors are created equal.
So, the question that now comes begging is this: How can truly passionate and talented mental health counselors like you stand out and deliver the right care to people who need it most?
