Phoenix Thriving Therapy

Holding a lot of space of my patients today that have lost their mothers, whether if they have passed, or that they are unable to have a relationship with their mother. Move through the day allow the negative feelings to come up but keep going through your day being able to remother yourself! A gentle phrase you can say to yourself: “I am the greatest mother to myself.” #therapy #mentalhealth #toxicrelationalhealing #mothersdayishardforsome #healing (at Miami, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdS_mreATuC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Many of you usually have the numbers for poison control or emergency magnets on your refrigerator. Well let’s talk about this… suicide has statistically increased post pandemic.. this is just a fact. Everyone should have these numbers. It’s important that if you or someone is struggling that you have at least one resource to give them. We need to talk about this subject! Please save this numbers but it can save a life. Also please donate if you can to these agencies recently the New York Times published an article sharing that these crisis callers are overworked and that there is a demand for more! #mentalhealthawarenessmonth #suicideprevention #suicideawarness #therapy #support #askforhelp #letstalkaboutsuicide (at Miami, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdL1I1Iutvn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Mental Health is not always going to be 100 💯 percent but pay attention to how you are starting your day! Don’t put on depressing news, find someone or something that does inspire you and try and embody that just for the day. Listen to a positive podcast while you’re getting ready for work or driving to work. The simple intention of trying to start our day on a positive or healthy note makes a difference. Make that one micro task for yourself! #mentalhealthawarenessmonth #mentalhealth #morningrituals #therapy #support #keepitsimple #selfcare #phoenixrising https://www.instagram.com/p/CdEG9WdOhR-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The moment when your patient is able to say something like this in session is the most humbling and beautiful moment for me as a therapist. My patients teach me everyday the power of resiliency, the grace they have. Such a simple statement but so powerful. I have such gratitude for all of you. Thank you for making me a better therapist. Your stories are real and important. #mentalhealtmoments #grace #support #resiliency #hope #selflove #empathy (at Miami, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc6kePtMxVQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Right now millions of people are watching a contentious court case between two deeply wounded people. I am not diagnosing anyone in particular but what I can tell you is that there is a trauma bond that is continuing in this court case. They are deeply entrenched in this, a trauma bond can manifest in many different ways such as: romanticizing or even glorifying the abuse or the chaos, continuing to engage in hostile confrontations or smear campaigns. This court case is an example of a trauma bond and both parties have not even begun to heal. You can see after years now from their spilt the POWER of a trauma bond. This work is not easy. It’s like going to war not only with yourself but war with the person. When all you want to do is find a place peace. #johnnydeppvsamberheard #traumabond #narcissisticabuse #narcissticabuseawareness #borderlinepersonalitydisorderawareness #recovery #therapy #boundaries #redflags🚩 (at Hollywood, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcyiDGouOhc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Many of us hold a lot of trauma, we still have central nervous system that is highly sensitive. Regulation is hard! But if we want to have safe connections with people both people need to be regulated. That may not happen in the moment of conflict so it’s ok to take pause and say I need to go regroup and ground myself. Encourage the other person to do the same. You can always come back to an issue to discuss. #regulation #trauma #copingskills #therapy #support #traumahealing #safeconnections #mentalhealthawareness (at Miami, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcNzO3Qulw3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I know this one is a hard one but you HAVE to explore this in some way. It’s ok we are human and many times these are learned patterns, just like patterns they can be changed but you have to go deep and address them and take accountability. If you don’t address toxic patterns or parts of ourselves it will show up in the next relationship. #recovery #understandingtoxictraits #healing #recovery #support #therapy (at Miami, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cb2kHLCruxU/?utm_medium=tumblr
