There is nothing you can do that makes you deserving of abuse. 💜

Not making a mistake. Not saying the wrong thing. Not disappointing your partner. Not struggling to communicate. Not even hurting someone’s feelings.

You can be imperfect, make poor decisions, contribute to conflict, and still deserve to be treated with dignity and respect.

Abuse is not a consequence someone earns. It is a choice someone makes.

This Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we’re reminding you that accountability and abuse are not the same thing. You can take responsibility for your actions without accepting mistreatment as punishment.

You do not have to be a perfect partner to deserve a safe relationship.

If you or someone you know needs support, visit thehotline.org or call 800-799-7233.

A political attack ad targeting Dr. Amy Acton features her estranged mother accusing her of lying about her childhood.

But here's what matters: Acton's childhood sexual abuse isn't simply an unsubstantiated allegation. Court records document her stepfather's arrest and her mother's loss of custody.

And yet, her mother's words are being presented as evidence against her.

As a trauma therapist, I find the broader message deeply concerning.

We have a long history of treating parents as inherently credible, even when they may have participated in, enabled, minimized, or denied the harm their children experienced.

Survivors are often expected to prove their experiences to the very people who failed to protect them.

A parent's denial does not erase a child's trauma. Estrangement does not invalidate someone's story. And family loyalty should never be the standard by which we determine credibility.

This goes beyond political affiliation. It's about what happens when someone's trauma AS A CHILD becomes a tool for public humiliation.

We need to do better.

One of the most important things to understand about trauma is that its impact isn't always limited to remembering what happened.

Our experiences can influence how we interpret situations, what we expect from other people, how our bodies respond, and what we come to believe about ourselves.

Sometimes those responses made sense in the context in which they developed. But they may no longer reflect our present circumstances.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based psychotherapy approach that helps people process distressing experiences and the beliefs, emotions, and physical sensations associated with them.

And it's much more comprehensive than simply following a therapist's fingers or revisiting a painful memory.

EMDR involves eight phases of treatment, including history taking, preparation, assessment, processing, and reevaluation. The pace and focus of treatment should reflect each client's needs, current circumstances, and readiness.

The goal isn't to erase the past or convince someone that what happened wasn't significant.

It's to help the past have less influence over how they experience themselves and the present.

At Aligning Intimacy Therapy, our approach to EMDR emphasizes individualized treatment, collaboration, and thoughtful clinical decision-making.

It can be challenging to determine when someone is being insincere! When there’s a mismatch between actions and words, it doesn’t immediately mean that person is lying. However, a pattern of the repeated behaviors should not be overlooked and can showcase unhealthy relationship skills!

The environment at Pride is the antithesis of shame. As a therapist, I can’t tell you how important that is. Pride is consistently the most welcoming, loving, joyful, and supportive environment I’ve ever been in, and for me, it’s important to show up and give that energy right back to the community. While our world is so divided, Pride reminds me that there is still so much love in the world and so many good people. The love there is palpable—you can feel it in the air and see it in the way people are connecting with each other. It brings tears to my eyes every time. I’m so grateful for Pride and the LGBTQ+ community and the light they bring to the world, and I’m both honored and committed to showing up and supporting them in any way I can. Thank you to the q***r community for all the ways you have and continue to change our world for the better. We love you and we’re wishing you a happy Pride 🏳️‍🌈

Happy birthday, Erin! We hope you enjoy your day 😊🎉
