On this episode of The Lived Experience, we hear from a lived experience therapist, Simon Rinne who has experienced obsessive-compulsive disorder since childhood. They share their story on how OCD has impacted their life, including work, home life, and how they have managed it through exposure therapy and mindfulness practices.
We also learn about their experience with burnout, which led them to become a therapist and why they started a podcast to share their journey and show that it's okay to talk about mental health. We also hear about the challenges that they have experienced in starting a private practice, the lack of services geared towards men's mental health, and the importance of finding a therapist that you are comfortable with.
Overall, this episode sheds light on the experiences of a therapist who has lived experience with OCD and burnout, providing valuable insight and understanding for anyone experiencing similar challenges.
