You're Not Weak for Needing Help: Mental Health Treatment Month 2026

It's Mental Health Awareness Month — and this year, we're not stopping at awareness. We're talking about _treatment_: what keeps women of faith from getting the mental health care they need, and what to do about it. In this episode, counselor and author Elisha breaks down the three most common lies that keep Christian women from seeking mental health treatment — and walks through the R.E.S.T. Framework to take one actionable step before Sunday. 📌 Topics covered: * Why getting help is NOT a lack of faith * The neuroscience of why trauma doesn't just go away with time * SAMHSA's 2026 focus: Early support matters * How to apply the R.E.S.T. Framework to seeking treatment * Practical steps for finding low-cost therapy options 📖 Scripture: Philippians 4:7 🌿 R.E.S.T. Framework: Regulate · Experience · Surrender · Trust Open Path Collective (low-cost therapy): http://openpathcollective.org 🔔 Subscribe for weekly episodes at the intersection of clinical trauma recovery and Christian faith. 📩 Connect:https://www.restoringyouchristiancounseling.com/ | https://elishas-space.onpodium.com/
