As promised! Here are the results.

Last week I took a pole in our community to see reasons why people have had to break up with their therapist. I then took that information and researched it—and this is what I’ve found.

Bottom line: there are good breakup’s, normal breakup’s, and harmful ones.

If you need help navigating a therapist break ups hang tight—a resource is coming.

Let me know what you’d add, take away, or change. Remember there is nuance is the data!

When people talk about being self-aware—what do they actually mean??? It means you’re NOT reacting but you’re actually leading. From a parts perspective it may look like leading with one of the main C’s

✨curiosity
✨compassion
✨creativity
✨calm
✨connected
✨compassion
✨clarity

But what do all of these have in common? Vulnerability. We cannot lean into self-awareness without stretching our comfort zones. So maybe next time you’re feeling stuck, try something small—coloring, reading, being kind to yourself, affirmations, asking questions.

Don’t worry, I will break these down more in weeks to come.

Thinking in absolutes has the ability to create shame and judgement towards how we feel. One of the biggest themes I see in therapy is a persons ability to gaslight and dismiss their own parts—such as sadness, grief, anxiety, and even joy.

This simple reframing has helped immensely in my journey by allowing a smidge of separation from both judgement and shame. Let me know if this helps!

An integral part of healing is choosing to process what you're experiencing or have experienced in therapy. Research has shown us that the effectiveness of healing requires two integral conditions: Safety and Willingness.

Safety: Having a safe space within ourselves and with other to explore, reframe, and integrate.
Willingness: Having an open mind & body to embrace and understand a more supportive story.

What are some other essentials you may need to begin therapy?
