Welcome to "Shit Talking Shrinks," I'm your host Paulie Siegel, a Licensed therapist, Certified Addiction Counselor and master-level trained mindfulness practitioner with a passion for psychology, humor, and insightful journeys through the realm of mental wellness. Join me as we explore the depths of the human mind, unraveling complexities while keeping it lighthearted.

In this episode, we're joined by Khara Croswaite-Brindle, MA, LPC, ACS, CFT-I, an esteemed author and suicide assessment trainer.

Together, we talk through the critical topic of suicide prevention, exploring essential resources and gaining valuable insights into the current landscape of suicidality. We'll discuss the prevalence of suicide and how to support someone who is struggling, letting them know they're not alone.

But our conversation doesn't stop there. We also examine the impact of social media on feelings of loneliness and disconnection, shedding light on its influence in today's digital age. And importantly, we explore how to seek the support you need if you're struggling, providing actionable steps for those navigating difficult times.

Join us for a crucial conversation on suicide prevention and navigating support during challenging times. Your participation is essential in raising awareness and fostering understanding.
