Welcome to Mystic Monday's, where today's episode delves into the intersection of mental health and the paranormal.

We explore how societal norms influence our understanding of these experiences, acknowledging both their validity and the need for broader validation. Join us as we define concepts through medical and social science lenses, and discuss finding a therapist who can cater to individuals embracing psychic abilities, spiritual beliefs, or paranormal experiences.

This episode aims to empower listeners seeking professional insights into these intertwined aspects of spirituality and mental well-being.
