“There are two possibilities why your memories of childhood are so hazy. Either nothing happened worth remembering, or too much happened that may be hurtful for you to recall.” @DrGaborMate
The longer I work in psychiatry, the more & more I'm reminded that poverty is one of the most harmful factors (if not the most harmful factor) affecting peoples' mental health.
10 Ways to Emotionally Validate 1. "That makes sense you would feel that way." 2. This sounds (insert emotion), am I hearing this right?" 3. "How can I support you?" 4. "I am here." 5. "Would it be helpful if I (insert support that you can offer)."
You can’t even start to HEAL from abuse until you are SAFE from abuse.
“You are not the voice of the mind—you are the one who hears it.” Michael A. Singer, The Untethered Soul: The Journey Beyond Yourself
Struggling with your mental health does not make you a bad therapist.
So we actually have inner children…not just one child. We have different child parts and it’s been interesting getting to know them all Using Internal Family Systems (IFS) with my own therapist has been life changing for me
Be gentle with yourself, healing takes time.
Sending compassion & peace to those who have lived in survival mode as their norm. As you uncover what has hurt you the most & why, I hope you also find what brings you pleasure. And, on your hard days you anchor yourself in what feels like rest rather than pushing harder to heal
Quick de-escalation phrases for kids: You’re not in trouble. I want to hear your side. I’m not mad at you. What happened? How can I help you right now? Let’s talk about this.
The question is never “Why the addiction?” but “Why the pain?” The research literature is unequivocal: most hard-core substance abusers come from abusive homes. Gabor Maté #addiction #pain #substanceabuse #childhood
So self-acceptance does not mean self-admiration or even self-liking at every moment of our lives, but tolerance for all our emotions, including those that make us feel uncomfortable. Gabor Maté #selfacceptance #tolerance #emotions #discomfort
You are better at taking care of others when you take care of yourself.
We create stories in our minds & these narratives match our nervous system. Identifying your story state is helpful. Sympathetic: The need for control- fight or flight Dorsal: Overwhelmed-want to give up Ventral: Full of curiosity & wonder What feeds your ventral state?
We are not minorities, we have been minoritized. We are not underrepresented, we have been historically excluded. Language matters.
Recovery is about finding balance, sometimes you need to push yourself forward and other times you need to hold yourself close.
If as a child you had adult responsibilities, this is your reminder to pause, put your hand on your chest, and breathe deep breaths into the part of you who questions if they’ve done enough to rest.
Humility and curiosity are powerful therapeutic forces. Many people have never experiened them in combination. "I don't yet understand, but I really want to."
Becoming a therapist is complex and exhausting because now you are the tool of your work. Unlike a saw to a carpenter, you can't set aside your self once the work is done. And if you are not taking care of your self, it will show. It's easy, then, for the work to follow you.

Quarterly reminder to PLEASE stop sending your students to interview marginalized faculty. It is so tokenizing, not to mention the emotional labor required. Just plz don't.
The way y'all ask women of color for exorbitant amounts of emotional labor with all the requests for us to hold your hand through every personal revelation around identity, oppression, and power is just ridiculous. Do. Your. Own. Work.
Question for therapists - do you feel like because you’re a therapist you see the people in your life differently? And if so, in what way?
@Ir3n4lbar @elliemidds “I would have sent an instant message if I had the time. Instead, let’s have a meeting.” - Mark Twain
I want people to understand that therapy isn’t always heavy. Sometimes it is. But I also laugh a lot.
How do I politely tell an organization that they asked me to give a talk last year and then ghosted me so why should I consider their latest opportunity?
@BecomingaThera For me this has come to mean not putting so much pressure on myself to come up with some profound reflection or using the “right” technique for the moment. I feel like I’m “working harder” when I get caught up in my own head rather than remaining present
@BecomingaThera It depends on how you use it. It’s been important for me as a new therapist to remember not to jump in and be my clients problem solver. I can’t try to fix everything. I need to remember to slow down and teach my clients that they control their lives. I can’t do their work.
White women who centre their identities on being excellent allies are super duper dangerous, because when they are at all challenged they will stop at nothing to ruin the person who has called them out.
@cgdeterman I think ‘willing,’ is the key word here. Most people I know HAVE to work certain jobs to survive, almost forced to. I would say many are working against their will
It looks like a congress person or landlord are the top choices!
PSA from a trauma therapist: giving kids developmentally-appropriate attention (yes, this includes playing with them!) is a core component of meeting their basic needs and if you don't want to traumatize your kid it's not really a part of parenting you should be opting out of!
Nobody: Absolutely nobody: Therapists: The reason most New Year’s resolutions fail is because they aren’t measurable.
Just a friendly reminder that doing therapy with Black people looks different than doing therapy with other groups of people. Not up for debate.
I have the, "wow, I really have a Ph.D.," thought pop into my head like once a month still
Imagine growing up witnessing the emotional abuse of your mom in youth and then having your dad keep threatening to sue you (when you’re an adult) for talking about it.
The longer I work in psychiatry, the more & more I'm reminded that poverty is one of the most harmful factors (if not the most harmful factor) affecting peoples' mental health.
Ah, my favorite thing to wake up to - getting attacked by other therapists on twitter. Lovely.
