You might think you’re relaxing because you’re lying on the couch scrolling your phone. Meanwhile, your shoulders are tense, your stomach is in knots, and you’ve watched 27 videos about the same stressful topic.
.
Our bodies can react to what we’re consuming online even when we don’t consciously feel “stressed.”
.
That doesn’t mean you need to delete TikTok, stop following the news, or never go down an internet rabbit hole again. It just means it’s worth checking in with yourself every once in a while.
.
Sometimes the tight shoulders, racing heart, or restless feeling are your body’s way of saying, I think we’ve had enough for today. The updates will still be there when you come back.
.

Therapy is meant to be one sided! This space is for you and only you. We maintain boundaries to make sure the relationship supports your needs rather than ours.

Being the person everyone can count on can feel like a strength. And it is. But sometimes, being “the strong one” also means you’ve gotten really good at putting your own needs last. Therapy can be one place where you don’t have to be the responsible one, the helpful one, or the person who has it all together. You deserve support too.

There will always be more you could do. One more email. One more task. One more workout. One more thing you could improve, finish, clean, plan, or check off your list. But “I could do more” isn’t the same as “I’m not doing enough.” You don’t have to operate at 100% of your potential to be doing enough.

Most people don’t avoid therapy because they don’t care. They avoid it because they’ve convinced themselves it’s not the right time, not bad enough, or something they should be able to figure out on their own. While those reasons may seem logical, they often just prevent us from getting started and receiving support that ultimately will help propel us forward.

If therapy has been on your mind for a while, there’s probably a reason. We can help. Click the link in our bio to get started.
