Listen, people are doing a lot of weird sh*t right now, I get it. But if you’re noticing yourself falling into old habits, maybe it’s time to finally find a therapist! When something super stressful or traumatic happens, that memory can get stored in your brain in a way that makes history repeat itself. EMDR therapy helps you to go back and reprocess those memories in a healthy way, with your adult self in the drivers seat. Stop the cycle of beating yourself up for making d...ecisions that don’t serve you and don’t fit your values. Bring your higher self front and center, and let go of old patterns that don’t work for you! Call me for a free consultation today to see if therapy can help. During a consultation, we will talk about what’s going on for you, and decide together if we are a match. If not, absolutely no hard feelings, it would be my pleasure to help you find someone who’s a fit for you! There is literally no risk. Just call me! #sandiegotherapist #telehealth #onlinetherapy #therapy #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmonth #mayismentalhealthawarenessmonth

The future of LGBT is GSRD! We don’t have to live in a world of checkboxes and binaries. I love this new term, which encompasses us ALL, instead of the old-fashioned LGBT. . . In trying to be inclusive, LGBT has become an alphabet soup, and not everyone understands it or feels included in that list of letters, numbers, and symbols. .... . Not to knock LGBT, I’m just suggesting a new term moving forward. G.S.R.D. includes everyone in the conversation about these issues that are a part of all of us. . . You may be in a minority or subjugated group on one or more of these components of self, but on the others, you may find yourself with privilege. You may be out in one area but not another. You may be curious to try something, but scared of the social consequences. All these conversations fall under this beautiful acronym! . .

How to get through the holidays...

It is so hard to find a therapist! Here's a little info that can help you in your journey. https://blog.zencare.co/reasons-to-see-out-of-network-ther/

It’s so hard to find a good therapist! Here’s three places to start: 1. TherapyDen.com : a progressive site that’s new to the scene, but has over 140 search options to help you select the best match! You can search by specialty, problem, type of therapy, cultural preferences, and insurance. 2. PsychologyToday.com : tried and true, this site has way more therapists on it, but it is a little more old school/traditional. 3. Ask your friends! This is a great way to get a recomm...endation. If your friend knows someone who’s great, that’s way less work you have to do! @therapy.den @psych_today See more
