Give Yourself Permission To Grieve with Christal Pennic

Join us for a heartfelt conversation with Christal R Pennic, LPC-MHSP, a licensed mental health therapist who specializes in grief and bereavement. Chris opens up about her journey with loss and how it has transformed her approach to mental health care. Together, we explore the coexistence of joy and sorrow, diving into how acceptance isn't about being "okay" but learning to live with a new reality, and learning to give yourself permission to grieve. Chris shares insightful techniques for addressing negative self-talk and reframing cognitive patterns to tackle the guilt that often accompanies loss.
