#TherapyThursday



Been thinking about getting some counseling (therapy)? Finding a counselor that you fit with can be hard but so worth it. You want to be able to trust that person since they will be hearing your heart - things that maybe you have never said out loud before. It will end up being one of the most important relationships you might ever have. 

A good therapist is accurately described by this statement:


A good therapist will value your journey and process and count it sacred. It might take you a few tries to find a counselor that works for you and your needs - keep looking, don't give up. Get recommendations from people in your life, from your primary Doctor, from your gut instinct. I've been really fortunate to meet with some great counselors in my journey. I haven't stuck with the same one for various reasons but each one has been really helpful in my healing process. I'm not always in therapy, I go in seasons. And it's because our healing happens in seasons. Some seasons we are ready to address something, and others seasons we aren't there yet. Sometimes we aren't aware of what *stuff* is in us to be looked at and in its own season it will come to the surface. It's all okay, it's all good. Find someone to help you through it all.

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
