Introduction to Encountering You
Encountering You
03/29/22 • 2 min
Welcome to Encountering You with licensed professional counselor Laura Williams. Listen as she tackles tough issues relating to your mental health and how they relate to your faith journey just like you heard on 'Out of the Dark' with Mandisa, but here Laura will dive a little deeper with you to unpack topics like trauma, can I be a Christian and struggle with my mental health, what are boundaries and how do I grow them, shame, abuse, dealing with resentment and anger and other issues in counseling.
In this podcast, you will be challenged. If you are willing to move, even and inch, change is inevitable. Each episode will be full of information, so bring a notebook along. Every episode will also include some kind of reflection, journal prompt or practice for you to try in between episodes. These may feel hard to do, but I promise they will create movement. Sometimes when something resonates with you, it can feel positive. But, be aware that many times, conviction can feel uncomfortable. So, if something I say creates discomfort, sit with it. See what God is trying to move in you.

Worth or value is given to us first and foremost by God but our parents have to grow it. There are many ways this can go sideways. If you have learned to value yourself by your career, your status in your community, whether you are a good mom/dad or not, or any other ways outside of yourself, this episode is for you. We are not better than or less than anyone else.
