Emotional Internalizing
Watch on YouTube ↗Some of us learned early to hold everything in. In this episode of Counselor Off the Clock, Lydia Thompson talks with Shantell Johnson-Jones, counselor and owner of Shine Mental Health, about emotional internalizing: what happens when you turn down your own internal voice and keep big feelings tucked away.
They explore the root causes of internalizing, including Shantell's own experience with Adult Children of Alcoholics and Dysfunctional Families, and what healing can look like when you begin to let your feelings be heard. It is an honest conversation about coming back to yourself in order to build healthier relationships.
