Managing Personal, Emotional, and Social Aspects of Chronic Illness w/ Joelle Prevost, Clinical Counselor [Episode 105]

Joelle Prevost RCC (Registered Clinical Counselor in British Columbia, Canada) joins Paul Krauss MA LPC for a conversation on her forthcoming book "Managing Personal, Emotional, and Social Aspects of Chronic Illness: A Workbook." Joelle draws on her own experience, as well as working with various clients who are managing chronic illness, to discuss the ways in which one might learn to manage their life, even while living with a chronic condition that may never change. Joelle discusses the nuances of "acceptance" versus "giving up" as well as the challenges of communicating with family members, healthcare providers, and more. Joelle is encouraging, yet realistic, in her approach to helping those suffering from chronic illnesses gain more autonomy and balance in their lives.

Previously Paul Krauss MA LPC interviewed Joelle Prevost RCC about her book "The Conversation Guide: How to Skillfully Communicate, Set Boundaries, and Be Understood" on Episode 82 of the Intentional Clinician Podcast.
