Sexuality is a lens.

When I first studied family therapy and couples therapy, I did so without one formal hour about s*xuality. And thought how can that be? In a culture where s*xuality is so central to the topic of love and relationship, how can we do couples therapy and not ever talk about it? Something is missing. At the time, the field itself oriented around the idea that s*x problems were a result of relationship problems, meaning that fixing the relationship would then fix the problems in the bedroom. My thinking has always been that this is not inaccurate but there is more to the story.

In my conversation with Peter Attia, MD, we talk about my journey to psychotherapy, the value of our relationships with other’s for one’s sense of wellbeing and how our relationships, s*xual and otherwise, can act as a mirror to recognize and heal trauma by reflecting our own maladaptive behaviors. Listen to the full conversation in the link below, and let me know what you think.

You might want to be the best mom you can be, but that doesn’t mean you have to be perfect.

💭 Your ability to create safety, authentically show up, not take things personally, understand the mind and body are connected, and know that you are not in charge of someone’s healing are some of the BEST and most EFFECTIVE interventions.

👉Co-regulation
👉Holding Space
👉Somatic Attention
👉Authenticity
👉Remembering it’s not about you.

These things cannot be ignored as highly effective interventions. They are not “manualized” models for healing. They are attending to the person in front of you and acknowledging your relationship with them first.

Our practices full of paperwork, diagnoses, boxes, assessments, manuals are governed and pushed at us by managed care systems and systems of power, abuse and harm to many folks we try to serve. We must return to relationship, acknowledge the importance of relationship and humanness in healing.

❤️Regulated nervous systems settling into safety is healing. ❤️

Emoțiile ne motivează viața, deciziile importante și nu puteam trăi fără ele – nu este în controlul nostru declanșarea lor.
