98. Incurable Diseases Are Not Problems to Solve (with Jill Johnson-Young, LCSW)

A therapist's job is to help their clients. But what does "help" mean when a client has been diagnosed with an incurable disease? In this episode, Cassie shares her story of seeking emotional support for her diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer only to receive unhelpful fixes instead. Plus, Jill Johnson-Young returns to talk about supporting clients who are experiencing the grief of having to say goodbye.   Thank you for listening.
