Hey :) I’m working in the field.
Lot of social workers or mental health workers are using their own experiences to improve the support provided to their beneficiaries. Also, if you undergo training in the field, you will obtain tools that can help you better manage your own experiences. And finally, it’s important to know that you’re not “helping” anyone; they do it themselves. You only provide them with the tools or a perspective that might motivate them to take action.
