The way we speak to ourselves can either break us down—or build us up.
Dr. John Gottman’s Four Horsemen aren’t just for relationships with others—they show up in how we relate to ourselves too:
🗣️ Criticism – ‘I’m a failure.’
😔 Contempt – ‘I’m worthless’
🛡️ Defensiveness – ‘It’s not my fault’
🚪 Stonewalling – shutting down completely

Each one can harm your mental health and emotional resilience. But there are antidotes.
✨ Start with self-awareness.
✨ Practice self-kindness.
✨ Shift the dialogue within.

You deserve a relationship with yourself that’s rooted in respect, not rejection. 💛

Ever wondered about the differences between psychotherapy and counseling? Let's break it down:

🧠 Psychotherapy:Think of it as a deep dive into understanding your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Psychotherapy, often conducted by licensed psychologists or psychiatrists, involves exploring past experiences, identifying patterns, and developing coping strategies to address challenges and improve overall well-being. It's like embarking on a journey of self-discovery and personal growth!

🤝 Counseling: On the other hand, counseling focuses on providing support, guidance, and practical solutions to help individuals navigate specific issues or life transitions. Counselors, who may hold various degrees and certifications, offer a safe space for clients to express their feelings, gain insight into their circumstances, and develop skills to overcome obstacles.

Both psychotherapy and counseling are valuable tools for promoting mental health and finding clarity in life. Whether you're seeking long-term insight or short-term support, there's a path that suits your needs. Remember, taking care of your mental well-being is a courageous step toward living your best life!
