Lessons Learned on My Journey as a Mental Health Professional
by F. Francis Jones
Life can be challenging. It often seems like we overcome one issue only to find another one waiting to greet us.
Many of us can be overwhelmed by the daily demands of our jobs, our families, and our relationships. But perhaps some situations are necessary for personal growth as we strive to develop the skills needed to manage stress and become more resilient and emotionally healthy.
In Heal and Grow, licensed marriage and family therapist F. Francis Jones shares his experiences and insights from more than twenty years of clinical practice. Each chapter focuses on lessons he’s learned assisting clients and addresses topics like self-care and why therapy can help. The book also includes a special section dedicated to understanding the challenges men face and the importance of them addressing their emotional needs.
With his straightforward, empathetic writing, Jones offers new perspectives on how to grow through life’s difficulties and take steps toward healing. For anyone who is trying to move forward or struggling to take the leap into therapy, Jones offers kind, approachable, and compassionate guidance.
