096. Why Do I Struggle to Ask for Help? | Mental Health, Therapy & Recovery with Kitty Alicee

Why do we find it so difficult to ask for help when we need it most?

In this episode, I sit down with Kitty Alicee, co-founder of Counterpoise Wellness, to talk openly about trauma, recovery, therapy and the challenges of asking for support.

Kitty shares her powerful journey through mental health struggles and recovery, and how her experiences inspired the creation of Counterpoise, a multidisciplinary approach to making emotional and mental health support more accessible.

We explore why therapy isn't one-size-fits-all, how to find the right therapist, why small steps matter in recovery, and why asking for help isn't a sign of weakness.

Because sometimes taking control of your mental health starts with admitting you don't have to do it alone.


Takeaways

👉 Asking for help is a sign of strength.

👉 Recovery often starts with small steps.

👉 Trauma can shape how we experience life.

👉 Therapy isn't one-size-fits-all.

👉 You don't have to face mental health struggles alone.
