WHY & HOW I Quit My Job as a Mental Health Therapist (and what to do next if you're wanting to quit)

- Today I'm going to share the personal story of WHY and HOW I quit my job as a mental health therapist. This video is going to be different than other videos out there, and it's supposed to be different. Because this story is meant to wake something up within you. To open up your heart to what's possible for you. And I don't believe that's possible to convey in a step-by-step video like the others you see online. It's by helping you hear what's possible within MY story--because I was you. I AM you. This is something that is possible for you as well.
Bottom line? Sharing my story will help open you up to the opportunity that YOU have right now at this point in your life/career.
So, if you've been feeling frustrated as a therapist or frustrated in your career as a healthcare worker (nurse, doctor, chiropractor)
OR you are starting to feel like life is beating you down and it's becoming too much to handle the emotional impact of your job as a healthcare worker...
And you're wondering what to do next... Grab a cup of coffee, get cozy, and join me as I share my story to let you know you're not alone AND what your next steps are.
Enjoy.
Sending love.
Meleah

I was divinely guided to this video tonight and i commend you in having the courage and vulnerability to share your experiences 🙏❤. Like yourself, I am a clinical mental health therapist wanting to quit the profession and my intuition & source/guides have been non stop relentlessly nudging me to do the same as your experience during meditating & journaling. I've had the same reservations, fears, and intuitive insights. I feel blessed to have found you and take it as a sign. I am proud of you!
Hiii, it was just as much of a divine message to me reading this comment to GET BACK ON HERE AND GET MOVING AGAIN! Trust those nudges, listen to those voices, and move before you feel ready (you never will feel ready lol--speaking for myself here too). How have things been for you since seeing this video? Any new intuitive insights coming through?
@@meleahrosesame for me - debating on quitting grad school
I'm less that 500 hours away from completing my hours. It's been such a long journey. I've felt ambivalent about going for licensure the whole time and now that I'm almost at the end, I am totally burned out and my body and soul are screaming at me that this is not the path for me but everyone is telling me I should just get licensed and then quit and I know it's the logical thing to do so that I can at least have the option of doing this in the future but I feel like I'm just dragging my lifeless body across the finish line. I wish I would've quit sooner because it feels so difficult now. This video is giving me hope that there is a way.
This just spoke to my soul
I relate to you so much. Have you made any changes or decisions in the past two months since you posted this?
Thank you for sharing your story
Thank you for taking the time to listen! 💛
That inner voice is the Holy Spirit. Praise God!
Amen
I needed this! Currently a therapist and just completed my clinical hours. However, I don't want to do this anymore---
Perfect timing
How are you doing now?
Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I needed to pause and come back because I felt so convicted internally. A lot of what you shared, I resonate with and the Holy Spirit confirmed that your message is what I needed to hear. The emotions took over and I needed to be vulnerable with myself. I pray that yourself and others continue to be healed through your work.
Thanks for this. I needed this video. My voice keeps telling me to write & share my pain to help others. I confuse this with wanting to be a therapist.
Thank you for this video
You're so welcome. Glad you found it helpful. Have you started looking into other career options yet? How's that all going for you?
wonderful video, I’ve had some of your same concerns as a therapist and also have built reticent to do videos. Your straight from the hip and heart style is wonderful and I encourage you to keep sharing! I subscribed and I’m looking forward to the videos about why you stop being a therapist! the insurance companies have been so horrible to me, particularly United insurance insurance, that I am quitting them and going cash pay. I think calling One self coach is awesome work around to the onerous requirements of our field!
can you please talk more about how therapy wasn’t the right fit and coaching is? I’m torn as well and so stuck
Way to bounce back!!!
Beautiful! Thank you 🙏🤍
Hi Meleah, Great video. Do you mind sharing what Joe Dispenza meditation you were doing while you were recoverying? Thanks, Jeff
Hi Jeff! Yes, I first read his book called You Are the Placebo. GREAT book that I recommend listening to first so you understand how the meditation works. Then, you can purchase the 'You Are the Placebo' meditation afterwards that he references. I'm curious what makes you feel called to try this meditation out?
I’ve had a similar experience up to the voicemail telling me to write… even random strangers telling me to write, asking me if I’m a writer, and telling me to publish my stuff without ever having seen me. I was in grad school with my world turning upside down… knew within the 1st year I didn’t feel 100% sure about it. Pushed myself anyways and graduated. I’ve been looking for a therapy job to gather hours for licensure and frustrated with how the industry is toxic and asking myself about doing coaching but I keep dismissing it. It just doesn’t feel me… I don’t sell myself, ever. I’m not as lost as I felt but still trying to piece things together.
Thanks for admitting the challenges associated with obtaining internship hours! Too bad you and I did NOT research the school we attended in the REQUIRED internship hour debacles. Best wishes!
Your whole video states that you quit because your gut feeling was to quit and then you just go into the financials of your other potential job. I was more interested in exactly what about being a therapist made you dislike it?
literally everything about the field.
@@pabloescobarschanclasare you a therapist? or quit the field yourself?
They denigrate coaches. Yes ❤ and it’s such nonsense.
