Holding the Line with Got Your Six Counseling
This is a space where we get real about the shit nobody wants to talk about. Mental health, life, trauma, healing, and everything in between. Sometimes we get clinical, sometimes we get messy, but it's always honest. We are just a few therapists who work with the Military and First Responder communities, trying to support, educate, and vibe with the people we serve.

PSA: Conversion Therapy
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week, Christina and Peggy tackle a sensitive subject - conversion therapy. What it is, the ethics behind it, the research about it, and the recent Supreme Court decision. This is a sensitive subject, so we all encourage gentle listening, and increased self-care. And, more importantly, reach out if you need support!
