We should be focusing on all aspects of our health, if something is not right with your body or your mind you should listen to it and take appropriate action. In this episode, Marjorie is joined by Phoebe Fliakos, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker to discuss the fact that most people are not super comfortable about vocalizing or talking about the need for mental health, specifically therapy. Here, Phoebe will address why when dealing with any sort of anxiety or depression or, whatever it may be, is almost taboo to most. She thinks that there's a fear unlike other organs in the body that fail or have difficulty, that if it's of the brain, there's some belief that we should be able to find our own way through it. That we're somehow failing or being weak if we can't find our way out of a problem that we're having emotionally or psychologically. And so there's a lot of shame that gets wrapped up into that.  So, tune in with Marjorie Adam owner of the Marjorie Adam Team & Phoebe Fliakos, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (L.C.S.W.) in Charlotteville, VA., and learn more about how important it is to seek help for true mental wellness.
