Christine Monteith, Mental Health/Co-Occurring Therapist

When you are noticing a behavior you dislike in yourself, take a moment to pause and choose to be curious instead of judgmental. Be curious about it - "Hey, what's that about?" Instead of judgmental "Oh my gosh, I freaking did it again!"

The language we use when exploring our thoughts and feelings is key to helping us navigate things more openly and without fear.

Remember - would you talk to your best friend this way? Would you talk to a child this way? Would you talk to someone suffering this way?

Choose compassion for yourself the same way you so often and readily offer it to others. And remember - therapy can help with implementing these thinking changes! 😊

BOUNDARIES: Those are hard! How do you know when it's time to set them? How do you go about it? What happens when that person gets really upset about it and begins to gaslight you? How do I remove myself from abusive behavior when it's someone close to me like a family member? How can I maintain boundaries when I'm feeling emotionally bullied and becoming overwhelmed? How do I manage my own reaction, including "feeling badly" about having to set the boundary?

These are all valid questions, and the answers are that it is individual by person and situation. These are things that can be processed and explored in counseling so you can gain the skills and confidence to set and maintain healthy boundaries. It's not alway easy, especially when that person retaliates. However, for your own peace and well-being, sometimes it's necessary to enforce firm boundaries with individuals that are not capable of appropriate or civil discourse.

If you find it hard to do this, seek out a counselor that might be of assistance to you. Someone to partner with you in this difficult time. You are NOT alone.

When you decide you need some of your books quickly accessible, but have limited space - yep - that's a tree design for a bookshelf, and it's pretty darn handy!!!

And just like that ... people get healed! LOL

Seriously, however ... I have some openings that do not normally occur, so thought I'd throw out this notice. If you or someone you know is in need of therapeutic support, please have them contact the office and setup an appointment (link to website and Team profiles is below - I am at the Broken Arrow location)! Currently, the wait time for new appointments is less than usual, but it may not stay that way for long!

I work with a variety of challenges including anxiety, depression, grief, addiction (including loved ones of those suffering with addiction, and those in recovery from addiction).

Ages 14 and older. Most insurance is accepted as well as private pay. I work Mon-Fri.

Please feel free to pass this information along to others!

A little humor … because sometimes we just need to laugh, and that qualifies as being therapeutic! ❤️
