I’m a licensed therapist

Does that mean I always have my shit together and never feel anxiety or stress? Nope! I’m human, and it’s completely normal to ride the emotional rollercoaster now and then. Follow me, your relatable therapist, for silly therapy videos and practical tips to help you navigate your own emotional whirlwinds ✨

Emotional wellness is a journey we all experience, marked by highs and lows that can often feel overwhelming. Many people misunderstand mental health, thinking therapists lead perfectly curated lives devoid of stress. In reality, the emotional rollercoaster is a normal part of life, and it’s essential to address these fluctuations with kindness and understanding. Practicing self-compassion allows us to recognize that it’s okay not to have everything figured out. Incorporating therapy into your life can provide you with strategies to navigate shadows of anxiety. Techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) help alter negative thought patterns while mindfulness exercises can ground you in the present moment. Regular journaling can also clarify your emotions, making it easier to process them over time. Remember, therapy isn’t just a place to seek help but a supportive partnership to empower you through tough times. By sharing therapeutic insights and relatable experiences, I hope to create an open dialogue around mental health. Join our community to discover valuable resources, share your experiences, and lighten the emotional load together!

An orange and white cat sleeps curled up on a red armchair. The text discusses "Slowing your daily pace intentionally" to lower cognitive, emotional, and sensory demands for AuDHD burnout recovery.

Things that actually help with AuDHD burnout (from an AuDHD therapist)

AuDHD burnout isn’t just being tired. It’s a full-system depletion that affects energy, emotions, sensory tolerance, and executive functioning all at once. And for many women, it builds slowly over months of pushing through, masking, and managing more than your nervous system was designed to hold.
