When Her Stuff is Above My Pay Grade
If your friend is experiencing depression, suicide ideation, manic episodes, severe financial trouble, or a physical illness that doesn't seem like she is regular degular kind of sick, these are all moments where it is probably above your pay grade... even if you are a professional in that area.
On today's episode, we are reflecting on times when a friend's issue is above the pay grade of friendship and discussing what it is like when you are a professional to strike a balance between your role as a friend and your lens as a professional. Join me and Dionne Caldwell, LCSW-C, as we talk about how we can navigate friendship when her stuff is above your pay grade.
