Guilt, when not wielded accurately, is actually fear in disguise.

Not true guilt that comes up when we’ve wronged a person, which should motivate us to make things right.
Not that one bit.

This type of “untrue” guilt arises inside when you’ve been taught to place more importance (by default!) on the discomfort of others.

So next time you feel guilt, ask yourself, “What am I afraid of?”

There can be a strange pressure this time of year to feel lighter, happier, more social, more present.

For some people, summer brings more ease and connection. For others, it brings up loneliness, comparison, emotional exhaustion, or the uncomfortable feeling that everyone else seems more fulfilled than they are.

You may notice yourself:
    •    withdrawing while still craving connection
    •    feeling emotionally flat despite being “busy”
    •    comparing your life, relationships, or friendships to everyone around you
    •    feeling guilty for struggling during a season that is “supposed” to feel good

A lot of high-functioning adults are very practiced at pushing through these feelings quietly.

Therapy can create space to slow down enough to actually notice what is happening underneath the exhaustion, anxiety, numbness, or disconnection.

You do not need to be in crisis to deserve support. Amanda Neves Therapy. Virtual across Ontario + in-person therapy in Vaughan.

We’re so happy to welcome Siobhan Dowling to our team ✨

Siobhan offers warm, attachment-based and trauma-informed therapy (including EMDR!) for adults navigating anxiety, burnout, relationship challenges, complex trauma, emotional overwhelm, and patterns that can leave people feeling stuck, disconnected, or exhausted beneath the surface. Her approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in helping clients feel safe enough to slow down, explore more deeply, and reconnect with themselves in more authentic and sustainable ways.

We’re incredibly excited to have Siobhan joining the practice and know clients will feel her warmth, steadiness, and care from the moment they meet her 🤍

Siobhan is currently offering both virtual and in-person sessions, with in-person availability at our Vaughan office on Monday afternoons and evenings.

I’m so happy to announce that we’ll be running the 4th cohort of 🦋Becoming: A Supervision Group for Experiential Practice🦋

The response to previous groups has been incredibly meaningful, and we’ve received such thoughtful feedback from past participants about how supported, challenged, and inspired they felt in the space. Many clinicians have also chosen to continue on into ongoing experiential consultation with me as a group afterward, which has been so special to witness ✨

Becoming is a small, supportive supervision and consultation group for therapists and student therapists interested in experiential, relational, attachment-focused, and trauma-informed approaches like AEDP, IFS, and somatic work (no previous training required!).

Across five monthly sessions, we’ll explore themes like shame, defenses, somatic overwhelm, rupture and repair, and therapeutic presence. I’ll also share session recordings from my own practice to support experiential learning, alongside space for case consultation, reflection, and discussion.

This group is for clinicians who want to deepen their confidence and attunement in the therapy room while being part of a thoughtful community committed to growing their practice in a deeper, more experiential way.

‼️Early bird pricing available until June 5. Registration closes June 12. Payment plans available. Includes documentation for 10 supervision hours (CRPO or OCSWSSW).

📌 Link in bio to apply.

And if you know a therapist, student therapist, recent grad, or colleague who may be looking for a space like this, I’d be so grateful if you shared this with them 🤍

A lot of mental health advice flattens trauma into “bad habits,” attachment wounds into “poor communication,” and nervous system responses into things to simply optimize away.

But many of the things people judge in themselves (overthinking, shutting down, people-pleasing, hyper-independence, reassurance-seeking, emotional numbness) often began as intelligent adaptations to environments where connection, safety, or emotional attunement felt uncertain.

Real “healing” is rarely about becoming perfectly regulated, hyper-independent, endlessly self-aware, or “fully healed.” It’s usually slower, messier, more relational, and more embodied than that.

It can look like:
• noticing your body sooner
• setting a boundary without spiraling into guilt
• staying present during conflict
• asking for support
• grieving what you didn’t get
• tolerating vulnerability without abandoning yourself

Not everything is a mindset issue.
Not everything is toxicity.
And not every trigger means you’re stuck.
