Holidays can be tender, especially when food, family, or expectations feel heavy.
You don’t owe anyone explanations about your body, your plate, or your boundaries — not today, not ever.

✨If you need breaks today, take them.
If you need boundaries, set them.
If you need to hide in the bathroom for one deep breath between relatives… same.
Wishing you a grounded, gentle Thanksgiving.
🤍

You deserve a holiday that feels safe, grounded, and yours. ✨

Every eldest daughter
Was the first lamb to the slaughter
So we all dressed up as wolves and we looked fire ♥︎🔥

🧠 Struggling with OCD or eating disorder thoughts that just won’t let up?

You’ve probably been told to “challenge” or “reframe” them.
But what if… that’s the very thing keeping you stuck?

The truth is, for many people, traditional CBT doesn’t help.
In fact, thought-challenging can become a mental compulsion of its own.

✨ Instead of trying to fix your thoughts, what if you simply stopped engaging with them?

Thought-stopping—done right—isn’t about forcefully erasing your thoughts. It’s about letting them pass without debate. No proving, no correcting, no spiraling.

This is the approach I use in my work with OCD and eating disorders:
🔹 Let the thought come
🔹 Don’t analyze it
🔹 Don’t fight it
🔹 And let it float on by

You don’t have to win the argument in your head to heal.
Sometimes, doing less is actually the most powerful thing of all.

🤍 If you’re ready for a new way to relate to your thoughts, I’m here to help.

Exciting news — I’m now officially trained in EMDR!

☀️Completing the basic training has been both a professionally enriching and personally meaningful experience. EMDR offers a powerful, evidence-based approach to helping individuals process trauma, and I’m deeply grateful to be adding this modality to my therapeutic work. I’m looking forward to integrating it into sessions and walking alongside clients in their healing journeys with even greater support.
