    • Self-Improvement

In this week’s episode, Billy talks to Dr. Lina Haji.  Dr. Lina Haji is a licensed clinical psychologist and licensed mental health counselor specializing in psychodiagnostic assessment, forensic assessment, dual diagnosis, serious and persistent mental illness, depression, anxiety, personality disorders, and substance abuse treatment.

Her clinical experience over the last 20 years includes working with mentally ill and dually diagnosed adults in inpatient and outpatient settings, including correctional facilities, substance abuse rehabilitation centers, outpatient clinics, psychiatric hospitals, and private practice in four states. She has also supervised master’s level clinicians and post-doctoral residents and served as clinical director for a 500-patient maximum-security correctional facility. Her ultimate goal as a psychologist, regardless of population, is to accurately diagnose and identify patient strengths and areas for growth in order to better individualize treatment needs and goals.

She is here today to talk about how acts of service can serve as acts of self-love.

Billy and Dr. Haji discuss:
–How acts of service pull people out of themselves, boost self-esteem, and combat depressive thoughts
–Why service as self-care is a controversial opinion
–What does “self-esteem comes from esteemable acts” mean?
–The fine line between service as self-care and service as a distraction from attending to mental health issues
–The impact of not learning from mistakes on our society
