Are you stressed out, always caring for others with little time for yourself? Would you really benefit from some self-care? If so, listen in to Jennifer Cobb, licensed social worker, and dialectical behavior therapist, interviewing Pam Ladetto, also a licensed clinical social worker and find out how you can go about creating some self-time, for your sanity.

 

Pam, a mother of two daughters, is a super specialist in self-care. She has been in the field for twenty years. She currently works in rural high schools as a LCSW, seeing about a hundred kids on a regular basis. Pam really relates to adolescents- they usually want to see her way more often than she is available. She has vast experience working with domestic violence, sexual assault, and child abuse, mainly in tough areas.

 

Listen in as Pam talks to Jennifer about:

 

• How her work with sexual abuse lead her to check out of the field for a while, just to be a mom and reflect.
• The need to give yourself permission to take care of yourself.
• Some tips to make giving yourself permission easier.
• How she takes care of herself.
• How self-care works for everyone.
• How to deal with the guilt of being a working mom.
• Her own quirky self-care habits.
• Her advice to people struggling to give themselves permission for self-time.
