How are you addressing the Israel situation with your clients? Especially those that may ask "where you stand on the topic?" I'm getting more of those questions lately & wanted to know what others think? (Besides the usual "don't discuss" politics/religious preferences in sessions).

The psychoanalytic answer to this question would be to ask you client , “I wonder why my political beliefs are importantly to you?”, or “How would knowing my beliefs help you with what you are working on?” Years ago, a patient asked me if I believed in God. I was quiet for a money and responded, “I wonder if you want to know if I am able to understand and appreciate who you are”

They smiled, indicated that they were satisfied with that response and we never discussed my beliefs again and instead focus on then and their feelings as should be done in therapy

Confession: The only in-law that I had a great relationship with passed away unexpectedly. The two remaining in-laws were on thin ice with me prior due to years of drama, nagging, and disgusting display of wealth. I believe their demand of money and general assholish behavior drove in law to his death. I love my S.O. but I can’t deal with the drama anymore.

I want to have a family and a future that is drama-free and full of love and don’t want to surround myself with negativity.

Do you think all these violent and hate filled attacks are because people aren't getting the emotional/mental support they need, whether it's therapy at any age or help they needed but didn't get from a social worker as a child? My coworker is sure this is the case, but I honestly think there's actually something deeper wrong either with how these people are being raised as children, or how the warning signs these people give off are ignored or swept under the rug to save face.

I graduated in May of 22. I transitioned from being an intern to being a full time counselor, now for 6 months.

I felt like I was lowballed during my offer, and my negotiation salary was denied since this is technically my first “professional” job. Pt 2 in comments:

Hello, I’m an LMSW in Michigan. I have 15 years of experience in the field as a clinician, supervisor, and an administrator. I am feeling burnt out and unsure of my future. I have worked mainly in the Community Mental Health and the VA Health systems, hence my fatigue. I’ve flirted with private practice work in the past, but my spouse has been worried about not having affordable healthcare and benefits that each system provides. Is it worth the jump? Am I overthinking things?
