Turns out, parenting doesn’t come with a magic wand. (We wish!)
Watching your kid struggle is HARD. Sometimes the best thing we can do is resist the urge to fix everything and let them work through those big feelings (with us right beside them, of course).
And let’s be real, sometimes the distress tolerance exercise is for the parents.
Our co-founder Sasha joins Suzanne Jamieson on In The Zone Parent Pod for a conversation about raising emotionally resilient kids and navigating our own big feelings along the way!

Our most dedicated mindfulness student. 🐾
They spent a good chunk of the afternoon sitting at the window watching the world go by and honestly… they might be onto something.
Consider this your reminder that mindfulness doesn’t have to be a whole production. Sometimes you can just sit there and notice what’s going on around you. That counts too.

Fall is a dialectical experience.

Ready for a new season while still sweating through the old one. (Literally)🎃☀️

Acceptance + change. We practice both.

Very DBT of you, September.

Apparently therapists need a different kind of skills group sometimes 🀄️
Our Co-Founder Sasha hosted some of our very good friends in our community for Mahjong, sunshine, snacks and a little friendly competition.
We spend so much time talking about connection and building a life you actually enjoy. This is kind of the whole point.
Loving On Our People. Feeling The Breeze. Laughing. Playing Mahjong.
More of this always.

Raise your hand if one awkward conversation has ever turned into a full Netflix series in your head.
We’ve all been there.
Our brains can be a little dramatic sometimes, and you don’t have to believe every story they tell.
One of our favorite DBT mindset shifts is surprisingly simple:
Add one word.

Our co-founder, Sasha, will be the first to tell you that some of the best mindfulness practices don’t happen in a therapy office.
Gardening naturally invites us to slow down, notice what’s around us, engage in our senses, and stay present which are all core components of mindfulness and emotion regulation in DBT.
Sometimes healing looks like dirt under your fingernails, sunshine on your face, and five quiet minutes spent tending to something that’s growing.
What’s your favorite way to reconnect with the present moment?

Mahjong is having a moment, so naturally, we had to investigate.
A few hours later, none of us had become Mahjong experts, and we laughed a lot, enjoyed some sunshine, and Sasha’s puppy pretty much stole the show by bringing all the good vibes.
Turns out, connection doesn’t always look like a team meeting. Sometimes it looks like trying something new together and getting surprisingly invested in little tiles.
Should the Westside Therapists Mahjong Club become a thing? Stay tuned!!!

Have you recently turned one mistake, one hard day, or one awkward interaction into a full personality assessment?

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.
