HuffPost: Are You In A ‘Permacrisis’? Here’s How To Tell.
December 13, 2022
To understand how “Permacrisis” can affect mental health, HuffPost reached out to our therapist, Courtney Strull for some expert advice.
Permacrisis has been dubbed the word of the year, which means “an extended period of instability and insecurity.” For many, this has translated to feelings of hopelessness, anxiety, loneliness, grief and a host of other tough emotions.
For others, the signs aren’t as obvious. “You may find yourself ‘quiet quitting,’ which translates to stepping away from work responsibilities and seeking ‘quality of life pursuits.”
With a background in Psychology from The University of Texas at Austin and a Master’s in Counseling from Southern Methodist University, Courtney is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas who works with adults in their 20s and 30s who are capable, busy, and quietly overwhelmed, with a focus on early career pressure, anxiety, overthinking, boundaries, and people pleasing. She pays close attention to how sleep, work, relationships, and daily rhythm shape emotional health.
