What's one thing you're proud of yourself for, that no one else would even know about?

Not the big, visible wins. The quiet ones.
The time you didn't send that text. The moment you chose to leave instead of staying when something didn't feel right. These subtle changes count. They’re not small at all. They deserve to be celebrated.

What comes to mind for you?

If setting boundaries feels uncomfortable, it might be because your nervous system learned that your needs threatened connection. Saying no, asking for space, or choosing differently may have once felt unsafe.
The discomfort doesn't mean you're doing something wrong. It means you're doing something new. It’s about helping you build trust in your right to take up space.

There's something profound about being truly seen by another person. Just witnessed in your full humanness. When we are not judged, not fixed, not managed, we feel connected and present.

That witnessing itself can be healing. Therapy offers that space where your experience matters, where your story is held, where you don't have to perform or prove anything.

"I just feel overwhelmed" is something we hear a lot. It makes sense because overwhelm isn't always about having too much to do. Sometimes it's about holding too much that hasn't had anywhere to go.

What if overwhelm is less about needing to do better, and more about needing to pause? To notice what's been building. To give yourself permission to feel tired, or unsure, or like you just need a moment to breathe.

It's worth remembering that it's okay to need support, or rest, or just someone to say: you're doing a lot, and that's worth acknowledging.

You might know what anxiety feels like in your body. The tightness in your chest, the knot in your stomach, the tension in your shoulders.

But do you know what joy feels like?

Not the idea of being happy. The actual physical sensation of joy in your body.
For many people, joy has been so brief or so unfamiliar that they don't recognize it when it shows up. Or they notice it and immediately brace for it to disappear.
Therapy can help you slow down enough to pay attention. To notice where you feel warmth, lightness, openness. To recognize delight when it comes and to learn that joy is safe to feel.

We all carry things that weren't ours to begin with. Family patterns, unspoken rules, ways of being that were handed down without question.
Therapy can be a space to set some of it down. To examine what you've been holding, and to choose what you want to keep.

Why does this bother me so much?

Strong emotions often point to something that matters deeply to you.

Maybe it's a value being challenged, a boundary being crossed, a need going unmet.

What might this emotion be trying to protect or tell you?

What if sensitivity isn't something you need to fix?
Being deeply affected by the world around you isn't a flaw. It means you notice things others might miss. You feel things fully. You care deeply.
The problem isn't that you're too sensitive. The problem is that sensitivity has been dismissed, minimised, or treated as inconvenient when it should have been honoured.
Your sensitivity is not too much; it's a gift to yourself and to others.

Which thoughts keep coming back?

Sometimes we don't need to solve them right away. We just need to notice them, name them, and sit with them for a moment with curiosity instead of judgment.

What does this thought need? What's it protecting me from? What am I really worried about underneath?

You don't have to have the answers today. Some things take time to untangle, and that's okay. Being gentle with yourself while you figure it out is part of the process.

Do you ever feel guilty for protecting your peace?

If setting boundaries feels selfish, it's probably because you learned early on that other people's needs should come before your own. That being "good" meant being available, accommodating, and never disappointing anyone.

You're allowed to say no. To need space. To choose what's right for you, even when someone else doesn't understand it.

What's one boundary you've been hesitant to set because you're worried about how someone will react?

The Christmas break is a welcome opportunity to unwind. However, for many people, the holiday season can be challenging. Feelings can be triggered by extra financial pressures, loneliness and grief for missing loved ones, increased alcohol consumption, fatigue and more.

Strategies to manage include:

Set realistic expectations for the holiday season
Take time to enjoy calming and relaxing activities
Limit alcohol intake and balance your nutritional needs
Set a holiday budget
Enjoy time resting and enjoy time outside in nature
Spend time with caring and supportive people
Schedule time with your Psychologist if you’re feeling overwhelmed or uncertain

Seed staff will be taking a short break between the 23rd December to the 5th of January. If you are in need of support during this time or need urgent care, we strongly encourage you to access relevant crisis services. An extensive list of services is available https://seedpsychology.com.au/crisis-services/
