Children can't learn when they are afraid. ❤️‍🩹

"When a child feels threatened—whether by a stern tone, a looming punishment, or a physical consequence—the brain activates its survival mode. The amygdala, the part of the brain that processes fear, takes over. This is useful if the child is in danger, but if they’re supposed to be learning, this state actually prevents access to the prefrontal cortex, where reasoning, decision-making, and memory happen.

In other words, a child who is afraid is not processing logic. They’re focused solely on surviving the moment.

So when adults think they’re teaching a child not to lie, hit, or disobey through punishment or intimidation, they may actually be teaching something else entirely: to be afraid of making mistakes. To hide their struggles. To shut down rather than reflect."

Love calls us to treat the ones we love with honor, yes, but that does not mean self-abandonment.

When someone demands self-abandonment from us, it calls into question their love.

Respect can exist without love…but love can’t exist without respect.

An example:

When a loved one communicates a problem area with us, we want to learn how to receive that information in an honoring way.

This doesn’t mean obedience or subservience to whatever they say.

It just means *respecting* them.

And that includes setting ego aside, being willing to listen, care, and have whatever conversations are needed to see if there can be a solution that is doable for both of you.

But it does not include giving in to their demands at the cost of your own soul.

Because love means you respect yourself, too.

When someone demands that you disrespect yourself in order to show them love?

That’s not love.

Because both people matter. That’s why healthy loving relationships are characterized by *mutual* respect.

That’s a boundary.

❤️

Here’s a reminder for you: You don’t have to rush. Progress isn’t less valid just because it’s slow. You’re allowed to take your time.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a reminder to take a moment for ourselves when stress strikes. Our natural threat response can often lead to fight (self-criticism), flight (isolation), and freeze (rumination). But self-compassion offers a powerful antidote, helping us downregulate these responses and cultivate peace within.

By practicing kindness, mindfulness, and connecting with our shared humanity, we activate our care system (the tend and befriend response), reducing stress and fostering resilience.

Research shows that this shift into self-compassion can lower cortisol levels and increase heart rate variability, making us less defensive and more balanced.

This month, let’s prioritize mental well-being and show ourselves the kindness we need. Take a pause, place your hand on your heart, and remind yourself that you are worthy of care and compassion.

MY APPROACH TO HELPING

Hi, I am Jun Kiat, a registered counselor and counseling psychologist. I have 15 years of experience working with kids, teen and working adults. It has always been my passion to help and to counsel. I strongly believe in counseling as a way to help with one's well-being. As a trauma survivor and domestic violence survivor myself, I believe in advocating for kids’ and teens’ voices. Being a client for years, the experience has helped me to relate better with my clients in order to accompany them along the journey of healing or the journey of self-discovery. I believe in holistic well-being. Work, life, mental health, food, shelter, art, music, coping skills, friends, family, etc are part of life and they can impact our lives in different ways. I am endeavored to help clients to find the balance, meet my clients at where they are and help them to walk the journey together. In the session, My goal as a counselor is to create a safe, nonjudgemental and kind atmosphere, in order to build a trusting relationship with my client. I apply a collaborative approach and work together with my client throughout the journey of counseling, self-discovery, and healing. Quote : "People are just as wonderful as sunsets if you let them be. When I look at a sunset, I don't find myself saying, "Soften the orange a bit on the right-hand corner." I don't try to control a sunset. I watch with awe as it unfolds." Carl R. Rogers “In my early professional years, I was asking the question: How can I treat, or cure, or change this person? Now I would phrase the question in this way: How can I provide a relationship which this person may use for his own personal growth?” ― Carl R. Rogers I believe in a client-centered approach as a way to better serve my clients to help them to reach one's potential. Hence, I resonate strongly with this quote. 嗨，您好，我是Jun Kiat，我是一名注册辅导员和心理辅导咨询师。 我有15年与儿童，青少年和上班族一起工作的经验。我一直以来都是提心理咨询以及陪伴。 我坚信心理咨询是一种帮助他人的方法。作为创伤幸存者和家庭暴力幸存者，我坚信倡导儿童和青少年的声音。作为客户多年，这种经验帮助我与客户建立了更好的关系，以陪伴他们自我探索。 我相信整体的幸福感。工作，生活，心理健康，食物，住所，艺术，音乐，应对技巧，朋友，家人等都是生活的一部分，它们可以以不同的方式影响我们的生活。我致力于帮助客户找到平衡点，，并帮助与他们共同前进。在心理咨询中，我将采用合作的方式。 引用： “如果让人们接受日落，人们就像日落一样美妙。当我看着日落时，我不会发现自己说：“在右上角稍微弄些橘子。”我不会试图控制日落。当它展开时，我敬畏地看着。”卡尔·罗杰斯 我相信以客户为中心的方法可以更好地为我的客户提供服务，以帮助他们发挥潜能。因此，我对此产生了强烈的共鸣。
