I sat down with Christine Erickson, LCMHC for a great discussion. She has a Bachelor's Degree in Nursing and a Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology. She uses an individual approach combining principles of neuroscience, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and mindfulness. She has done additional extensive training, receiving a Certificate in Mindfulness in Psychotherapy in 2014. Christine's practice is in St. George, UT. She helps patients with a variety of mental health related issues as well as dealing with bullying and past trauma. I split our hour long interview into two parts. This is part 1 where we discuss dealing with anxiety, depression and suicidality. She talks about how someone struggling with this can reach out but also how people can help those they care about struggling with mental health. She talks about how people can consistently show up and keep those loved ones safe when battling suicidal ideation. We discuss the huge jump in depression and anxiety over the past decade and how social media contributes to that.  Christine specializes in doing mindfulness mediation which she incorporates into her practice. Part 2 is where we discuss more fully what is Mindfulness and how to implement it into your mental health lifestyle. We end part 2 with Christine doing a guided mindfulness session. Here's the video link to that.  https://vimeo.com/334089250 Christine has a 5wk mindfulness program being released on May 14th that will give everyone access to this helpful practice that has been beneficial to so many.  I'm really excited for this episode and the next cause I feel like there's something for everyone in the content we discussed. Christine is such a kind person and I had a great time talking with her.
