Mental Health 360 with Dr. Susan J. Lindner and guest Don Joseph Goewey, DeMello Spirituality Center, https://donjosephgoewey.com/
Don Joseph Goewey has committed his life to helping people understand and reduce stress, navigate challenges, and live happier, more fulfilled lives. Outside of his own coaching and writing, Don serves as the executive director of the DeMello Spirituality Center. In his role as Executive Director of this nonprofit organization, Don’s primary responsibility is to spread the teachings of Anthony DeMello across the world.
Throughout his career, Don has worked with some of the most stressful situations on earth – with people facing terminal illness, parents struggling with the loss of a child, prisoners serving life sentences, and refugees of the genocidal war in Bosnia struggling with extreme post-traumatic stress. These experiences led him to author the Amazon bestseller, “The End of Stress ~ Four Steps to Rewiring Your Brain” which is based on breakthroughs in neuroscience that facilitate the specific shift in mindset that changes brain structure to quiet stress reactions and amplify the higher brain function that predicts greater success and happiness in life.
Prior to joining the DeMello Spirituality Center, Don served as the director of a human performance firm where he focused on alleviating stress and elevating the experience of work. Don previously managed of the department of psychiatry at Stanford Medical School, ran a regional emergency medical services system, and for twelve years headed ICAH, which received the 2005 Excellence in Medicine Award from the American Medical Association for pioneering a breakthrough approach to overcoming catastrophic life events. He also spent six years directing a research effort that integrated breakthroughs in neuropsychology into a model that changes brain structure to extinguish stress reactions and amplify the higher brain function that enables a human being to flourish. The model has achieved outstanding results in high pressure organizations.

Mental Health 360
“THE NEED FOR MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS AND ADVOCACY CANNOT BE DISPUTED."
The need for mental health awareness and advocacy cannot be disputed.
Dr. Susan is a licensed, clinical psychologist, mental health coach, and wellness advocate with a doctorate degree in clinical psychology, an MBA in organizational leadership, and a master degree of social work. She has extensive training in Gestalt psychoanalysis and is a Level II practitioner of QHHT - Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique. Dr. Susan is the author of, Reset Your Soul (February 2022,) a book written for those vested in optimizing their mental health and wellness.
Dr. Susan works within the framework of solution-focused, present-centered, and reality-based modalities. The blame game - pointing fingers and blaming others - are discounted and discouraged (strategies which serve no purpose other than to perpetuate already what is not working.) This inter-disciplinary approach can be extremely effective for those who, deep down, know that change is necessary to thrive - rather than simply, survive.
Ask yourself:
-
Do you seem to run into the same patterns in life that hold you back?
-
Do you tend to meet or date the same kind of people?
-
Do you struggle financially?
-
Do you live with addictions? Compulsive habits?
-
Do you often attract negative people into your life?
-
Are you living with anxiety, depression, unresolved issues that detracts from your quality of life?
-
Do you simply feel that there is more to you and this world?
-
Do you crave the clarity and wisdom to give you that extra edge in life?
-
Are you satisfied with your life decisions?
-
How do you know if you are on the "right path?"
-
Are you content/satisfied?
-
What is your life purpose?
-
Do you continue to search for answers?
-
Has traditional psychotherapy failed your needs and expectations?
HERE ARE THE FACTS:
-
Mental health does not discriminate. It transcends our differences to our deepest core - our human"ness."
-
Impaired mental health deters our capacity to thrive. It impacts everyone - not only ourselves, but those whom we love and care for.
-
It is time that we – as a collective force – join together to support our own mental health and mental health initiatives that optimize and improve psychological health and well-being.
THIS IS THE FOCUS OF MENTAL HEALTH 360 & KEEPING LIFE REAL

Let go of toxic emotions, behaviors and people that negatively impact health.

Reconcile differences and/or decide what no longer works.
-
Use resources and education to optimize empathy and understanding.
