Therapy With Nicole

Think about it — if your child repeated the words you use about yourself, would those words lift them up or tear them down? 🌸

Children build their sense of self-worth from the patterns they see in us. They take in our tone, the critical phrases we repeat, and piece together the quiet beliefs beneath them.

A gentle shift in how we speak to ourselves is enough to shape the mindset they grow into — one rooted in confidence, self-respect, and a healthy sense of worth. ✨

6 things I hope my clients keep in mind between sessions 💛

1️⃣ You don’t need to show up “better” every week — therapy isn’t a performance review.

2️⃣ Small shifts in awareness are still progress, even if there’s no "big breakthrough" yet.

3️⃣ You don’t have to wait until things are falling apart to reach out or check in.

4️⃣ Rest is part of the work. Integration happens when you give yourself space to breathe.

5️⃣ Growth sometimes looks like crying, napping, or binge-watching something comforting.

6️⃣ Healing doesn’t only happen in session — the real work often happens in the quiet moments after you leave.

Carry these thoughts with you between sessions — they're small reminders that healing is always happening, even when it's quiet. 🌸✨
