✨ “You are not behind in your healing. You are right on time.”

Healing isn’t a race, and there’s no finish line you need to reach by a certain point.
Your nervous system, your story, and your journey are uniquely yours.

At Brave Therapy™, we honour the pace that feels safe for you - whether that means small steps, big shifts, or simply pausing to breathe.

💜 You are exactly where you need to be.

Therapy isn’t about “fixing” yourself or arriving at some perfect version of who you should be. It’s about creating space to grow, reflect, and move in the direction that feels true for you. 🌱

At Brave Therapy, we honour that process - the pauses, the setbacks, and the breakthroughs. Every step forward is part of your journey toward healing and self-discovery.

💜 You don’t have to walk it alone.

Sometimes we mistake pushing through for resilience. But if you find yourself ignoring your feelings, numbing out, or running on empty - that’s not strength, that’s suppression.

Resilience is not about pretending everything is fine. It’s about pausing, checking in with yourself, and giving your body and mind what they need. 🌿

✨ Remember: Listening to yourself is strength, too.

💜 Today we Wear It Purple.

A day to stand with LGBTQIA+ young people and remind them: you are seen, you are supported, and you belong.

At Brave Therapy, we believe in creating safe spaces where everyone can show up as their authentic self. Days like today are a powerful reminder that visibility, inclusivity, and acceptance matter - not just today, but every day. 🌈

✨ To every young person who may be struggling: you are worthy of love, respect, and a future filled with possibility.

💭 You don’t have to carry it all on your own.

So often, we’re told to “be strong” - to push through, keep it together, and hide the cracks. But the truth? Vulnerability isn’t weakness. It’s courage. 🌱

Allowing yourself to feel, to share, and to reach out for support is one of the bravest things you can do.

✨ Strength isn’t about never breaking. It’s about knowing when it’s time to lean on others.

If you’re ready to explore what support could look like for you, we’re here. 💜

🌿 Starting therapy can feel unknown - but here’s what you can expect at Brave Therapy.

Together, we’ll create a space that feels safe, supportive, and grounded. Therapy here is not about rushing or “fixing” but about exploring, noticing, and gently shifting at a pace that feels right for you.

Through psychodynamic and somatic approaches, we work with both mind and body - uncovering patterns, processing past experiences, and building tools that support your nervous system today.

✨ If you’re ready to begin your therapy journey, Brave Therapy is here to walk alongside you.

Self-compassion isn’t just a nice idea - it’s a powerful tool for mental health and resilience.

Too often, we speak to ourselves in ways we’d never speak to someone we love.
Self-compassion changes that. It’s not about letting yourself off the hook or avoiding responsibility - it’s about meeting yourself with the same understanding, patience, and care you show to others.

✨ In this post, we’re unpacking:

What self-compassion really means (and what it’s not)

The myths that hold us back from practising it

Simple, everyday ways to be kinder to yourself

The research-backed mental health benefits

Because here’s the truth: You deserve the same kindness you so freely give to others. 🌿

Boundaries aren’t walls to shut people out - they’re the guardrails that protect your energy, time, and emotional wellbeing. ✨

Whether it’s saying no to extra work you can’t take on, asking for alone time, or being clear about what you need in a friendship, boundaries are an act of self-respect.

💡 Think of them as a way to nurture your relationships, not damage them. When you communicate them clearly, you give others the chance to meet you with understanding.

Boundaries protect your energy, not your love. ❤️

What’s one boundary that’s changed your life for the better? ⬇️

Healing is rarely a straight path. It’s full of ups and downs, twists and turns. Your journey is unique, and that’s okay. At Brave Therapy™, we honour the complexity of your experience and support you every step of the way.

Your nervous system remembers what the mind cannot always explain. Trauma shapes your brain, but it does not have to define your life. Feeling unsafe is a natural response - a sign of survival, not weakness.

Therapy isn’t about fixing you. It’s about creating a space where you are truly seen, heard, and supported to find safety and connection.

If you’re ready to explore healing on your own terms, follow@brave_therapy for insights and compassionate support.

🧠 Anorexia Nervosa is more than just disordered eating - it’s a serious mental health condition that requires compassionate, clinical care.

Diagnosing anorexia involves more than noticing weight loss. It includes medical exams, psychological assessments, and a deep understanding of the person’s relationship with food, body image, and control.

If you or someone you care about is struggling, you’re not alone - and help is available.

💬 Let’s talk about it.
