Ever catch yourself stuck in an endless scroll of bad news, but feel like you can’t stop?

That’s doomscrolling. And while it might feel like staying informed, it can quietly flood your body with stress and anxiety.

If you’re noticing sleep issues, low mood, or a sense of hopelessness—it’s okay to reach out for support. Therapy can help you understand the “why” behind the scrolling, and give you tools to manage it in a healthier way.

Setting boundaries doesn’t mean creating distance. It means creating safety—for both you and your partner.

Here are 3 ways to start setting healthy boundaries in your relationship:

Reflect on what you need and why
Communicate clearly using “I” statements
Reinforce your limits with kindness and care

Boundaries build trust, not walls. And if you’ve never learned how to set them, that’s okay. Therapy is a safe place to practice.

Ever feel like part of you wants to move forward but another part holds you back?

Internal Family Systems, or IFS, is a therapy approach that helps you explore the different parts within you—especially when you feel stuck, conflicted, or overwhelmed.

It’s often helpful for people who
• struggle with self-criticism or shame
• feel pulled in different emotional directions
• have past wounds that still affect their present

IFS sees your inner world like this:

🧠 The Self — your calm and compassionate core
🛡 Managers — parts that try to keep you safe and in control
🔥 Firefighters — parts that react quickly to numb or distract from pain
💔 Exiles — parts that carry your deepest hurts like fear or rejection

When you learn to listen to each part with curiosity and care, real healing becomes possible.

If this sounds familiar, therapy can help you explore it in a supportive space.
