Healthy boundaries
Manage episode 421988468 series 3244008
Dana Skaggs has a master’s degree in clinical psychology and is a licensed psychotherapist. She has been in private practice for 16 years specializing in anxiety and adjustment issues along with trauma work. She is a 6-yr board member for the Intermountain Psychological Association and a frequent guest on WJHL Daytime Tri-Cities discussing how to navigate the emotional terrain of everyday problems. She contributed to the article “Second Opinions: How You Can Leverage Mindset to Change Behaviour” in the Journal “A Plus” from the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
She experienced a toxic relationship with my mother involving the navigation of her significant mental illness, manipulative behavior, and narcissistic patterns. And during her 15 years of practicing psychotherapy, she began noticing how often boundary dysfunction was the root cause of many issues. Setting and defending healthy boundaries saved her life.
After having her third child in 2001, she decided to become a stay-at-home mom and was able to do that for over 6 years. When her youngest went to first grade, she started back to work, conducting disability evaluations. She was grateful for that experience, after having been home for years, but discovered my desire was for private practice which she have done for over 15 years. She taught several classes on Boundaries at her church which led to the development of her podcast, Phoenix and Flame.
That’s why she is passionate about providing others the opportunity to do the same. She wants people to know there’s a better life ahead. A new sunrise. You’re just really, really overwhelmed by all these different people in your life that are pulling and tugging at you. She has achieved peace in her life again, and wants to tell you it’s possible for you too. This is a powerful and empowering podcast you will love.
