A note we would have added:

You’re actually really good at getting through things

like keep going, don’t think about it, move on.

But getting through it, and feeling through it are not the same.

That gap?
That’s the work at Westside DBT

Which one are you doing more of?

Fridays at Westside DBT have their own vibe.
Less “let’s figure everything out”
and more like… okay, what are we walking into this weekend.
Because weekends tend to get a little louder.
More time, less structure, a few more chances to make a 10:47pm decision.
Not a bad thing. Just… predictable.
So, it’s less about controlling anything
and more about catching it while it’s happening.
Maybe a small pause.
Maybe just knowing what’s coming.
That’s usually enough.

Why am I suddenly feeling everything at once?!
Spring is here.
And things are shifting, not just outside.
A little more energy.
A little more emotion.

Instead of trying to shut it down
try reaching for something that actually helps.
Your Spring forecast is ahead (emotionally speaking)
Save this for later. You’ll come back to it.

Valentine’s Day, rebranded.
Not just flowers.
Not just dinner reservations.
Not just waiting to see who texts first.
This year, it’s about:
• Checking the facts before you spiral.
• Remembering two things can be true.
• Letting love feel loud, without losing yourself.
• Choosing regulation over reactivity.
Romance is cute.
Emotional regulation is elite.
Consider this your permission to celebrate secure attachment starting with yourself.
Send this to someone who needs it.
Or comment which card you’re claiming this year (1, 2, 3, or 4).
Steady > chaotic.
XOXO,
Westside DBT

Movement to shake the anxious energy out. Contribution as a reminder that your time, care, and presence are gifts too. Sasha’s favorite holiday skills are not about doing more, they’re about staying connected to your body and each other ✨ What skills have you used this holiday season?

12/29/2025

As the calendar turns, we’re focusing less on resolutions and more on regulation. One skill, one moment, one breath at a time. This is what we’re bringing into the new year. Here is one of our clinicians Aaron speaking on what keeps him steady with the new year ahead.

This season can feel busy, emotional, and a little overwhelming, sometimes all at once.
These are the skills our therapists are actually leaning on right now.
The same ones we practice, teach, and come back to again and again.
Bookmarking this for that next “inhale, exhale” moment ✨

Anyone else choosing ‘good enough’ energy this year?
The real magic isn’t in the checklist. It’s in the presence.
The connection with family, the laugh with a friend, the quiet moment with yourself, the community that holds you.
So, if the prep feels stressful, take a tiny step back.
Remember what matters.
Let the rest be optional.
We’re right there with you. Gently lowering the bar, raising the joy, and choosing the kind of holiday season that actually feels human.
