In our inaugural #MoshPitMentality episode, the guys welcome in an actual mental health professional to talk about negative self-talk, insecurity, and impostor syndrome – topics we cover often on RockMental. Using powerful lyrics from Dark Sun, we dive deep into the impacts our damaging inner thoughts have on our mental health, and offer some perspective from both the therapist and the client’s viewpoint.
Featured Guest
Ivan Noe Torres, LPC-S
With nearly a decade of clinical experience, Ivan uses an eclectic and less systematic approach to therapy, rather than a “one size fits all” methodology. His goal is to adapt and tailor to the clients’ needs in order to help them gain new perspective and appreciation for themselves.
Featured Song
Try to Pretend- Dark Sun
Everything I touch turns to dirt in the end, Nothing that I do is enough, so let’s not try to pretend.”
The chorus reminds us of the negative self-talk we engage in from time to time. It’s important to recognize your worth and know that even the roughest patches in life are only temporary.
