Meet Dr. Sonia Altavilla ๐Ÿ“š

Staff psychologist and womenโ€™s health specialist who believes the relationship with your therapist matters more than any modality. In our latest Clinician Spotlight, she opens up about what drew her to psychology, the very relatable urge to โ€œget an A in therapy,โ€ and why itโ€™s okay to shop around until you find your person. (She also has a black cat named Padfoot, which we felt you should know ๐Ÿˆโ€โฌ›)

This Juneteenth, we remember what we're honoring. Remembering that the fight for freedom remains, and that true freedom means ensuring everyone can get the care and support they need. Remembering that Black Americans are still more likely to face barriers to accessing quality, culturally competent mental health care. And it's about figuring out what actions we can take today and every day to move us closer to true freedom.

Happy Friday โœจ Our fourth ACT skill: Self-as-Context ๐Ÿ‘€

Self-as-Context is a reminder to detach yourself from your myriad of thoughts and emotions. We are observers of our thoughts, we are not the thoughts themselves.

Recognizing that we are not defined by our thoughts, emotions, or past experiences -but rather that we are the witnesses to those thoughts and can separate from them - gives us the freedom to change our own narratives and live life intentionally.

Next skill drops next Friday - see you then!

Happy Friday โœจ Our third ACT skill: Present Moment Awareness ๐Ÿง˜

Being present (or being mindful) sounds like such a simple concept, and by definition, it is. Doing it is a little trickier. We spend so much of our time thinking about what's ahead or what's behind us that it's easy to lose sight of what is right in front of us.

Sometimes that's for a good reason - the present moment can be quite jarring, uncertain, or even painful. Despite that, when we practice being with those thoughts, feelings, and the physical world around us, we can begin to change our perspective on them. Rather than feeling stuck in the past or swept away by the future, we can learn to ground ourselves right where we are, in the here and now.

Next skill drops next Friday - see you then!
