Would your therapist say this? No? Tragic.
Mine does. (It’s me. I’m the therapist.)
Feral, licensed, and still somehow professional.

If you haven’t found the right therapist yet — don’t give up.
They exist.
They might not scream Big Daddy metaphors at you…
but they’ll meet you where you’re at, without flinching.
Yes, I actually yelled this in a session today:
“COME ON, BIG DADDY, LET THAT F*CKIN’ DICK SWING!!”

Before your brain runs away with it —
✅ Everyone was of age
✅ Nothing unethical happened
✅ It was 100% a therapeutic moment… just wrapped in my signature unfiltered delivery

Because here’s the thing: my approach isn’t cookie-cutter.
I mix science, humor, blunt honesty, and a little chaos to help people break patterns, get unstuck, and step all the way into their power.
If that means I have to shock your system with a perfectly-timed Big Daddy metaphor?
Consider it done.

Today I turn 39.

And this is the most whole I’ve ever felt.
Not because I’ve perfected anything—because I stopped trying to be perfect in the first place.

For years, I thought showing up bare-faced meant I was doing something wrong. That I looked “tired” or “unprofessional” or “not put together.”

That’s what happens when you grow up hearing things like “every old house looks better with a fresh coat of paint.” (Y’all… I was the house.)

But I’m not interested in paint anymore.
I’m interested in presence.
In peace.
In showing up to life, work, love, and healing with my whole damn self intact.

So here’s to 39:
To being human, not performative.
To soft skin and sharp truth.
To letting go of other people’s standards of beauty and worth.
To knowing that how I show up authentically is enough.

To every person out there still untangling those old messages:
You’re not “sloppy” or “too much” or “not enough.”
You’re just used to being asked to shrink.
You don’t have to anymore.

We’re not here to be pretty.
We’re here to be real.

Sometimes I really do miss seeing clients in person.
Not because I don’t love the convenience and accessibility of virtual work (I do)—but because I wish I could share this little zen space I’ve built with you.

🌈 The lights are soft and colorful.
🌿 The air smells like eucalyptus or lavender thanks to my essential oil humidifiers.
🐈‍⬛ Gunt-Her the tuxedo therapy cat is always close by, curled up near the window.
☕ There’s always a warm cup of tea (or coffee), a comfy chair, and a gentle rhythm to the space.

This is where I sit with people in their hardest and bravest moments. Where stories are told, nervous systems settle, and healing work begins.

So even though we’re meeting through a screen, know that I’ve made this space with intention—to hold you with calm, warmth, color, and care.

✨New on the blog: Messy Minds, Big Hearts & Burnt-Out Love.

If you’ve ever felt like the glue holding your relationship together—or like your partner loves you but still forgets everything you say—this one’s for you.

We’re talking ADHD, codependency, emotional labor, and how to reconnect without burning it all down (unless you’re into that… with consent 😏).

🧠 Queer-inclusive, trauma-informed, and deeply human—just how we like it at BBCRGV.

Soft today. Fierce tomorrow. Goth on Thursdays. Therapist always.

For a long time, I changed how I looked to stay safe—gentle when I had to be, tough when the world demanded it. Now? The outside finally matches the inside.

All versions of me are valid. All of you are welcome here, too.

I’m not chasing youth—I’m embracing truth. Almost 40 and finally congruent.

Not all self-care hits the same.

You might be calling it “recharging” when it’s really just checking out.
You might be treating loneliness with a pedicure, or burnout with a bubble bath—when what you actually needed was to feel playful, seen, or deeply rested.

It’s not about doing more. It’s about doing what actually fits.

This post walks through how to tell the difference—and how to start listening to what your body, your nervous system, and your story are really asking for.

If you're trying to untangle the noise and finally care for yourself in a way that lands, this one's for you.

I work with neurodivergent, q***r, trauma-surviving, identity-exploring folks all across Texas.
If that’s you—or someone you love—I’ve got space.

✨ Today I’m celebrating 1 full year clean from weighing myself. ✨

Sobriety comes in many forms—alcohol, drugs, self-harm, toxic relationships, hustle culture, caffeine...
For me? It was the scale.

I used to weigh myself constantly.
My mood, my worth, even what I thought I deserved that day… all tied to a number.
One weigh-in could spiral me into restriction, overexercise, guilt, or bingeing.

And the worst part?
It felt normal.
Expected.
Even encouraged.

But a year ago, I said enough.
I stopped letting a scale tell me how to feel about my body.

Today, I live more HAES-aligned (Health at Every Size).
I check in with how I feel—not how I look.
I rest when I need rest.
I move when I want joy.
I eat when I’m hungry.
And while it’s not always easy, it’s more freeing than I ever imagined.

If you’re stuck in that same loop—
Weighing, tracking, punishing—I gently invite you to try this:

💛 Hide the scale.
💛 Notice what comes up.
💛 Stay curious. Stay kind.

You don’t have to “fix” anything.
You don’t even have to commit.
Just start there.
See what shifts.

To all my fellow humans unlearning shame and reclaiming your bodies—
I see you. I’m with you. I’m rooting for you.

💛

✨Today I’m celebrating 1 full year clean from weighing myself.✨

Sobriety comes in many forms—people get clean from alcohol, drugs, self-harm, toxic relationships, caffeine, even hustle culture. For me? It was the scale.

I used to check my weight constantly. I didn’t realize how deeply I had tied my worth to a number. One number could ruin my day or send me into a spiral of restriction, overexercise, guilt, or bingeing. And the worst part? It felt normal. Expected. Even encouraged.

But a year ago, I decided I was done. I stopped letting the scale dictate how I show up in my body.

Now, I live a more HAES-aligned life. I check in with how I feel, not how I look. I notice when I’m hungry. I notice when I need rest. I move my body for joy, not punishment. And it’s still hard sometimes, but it’s also freeing in a way I never imagined.

If you’ve been feeling stuck in the same loop—of weighing, tracking, punishing—I want to gently invite you to try something new:
💛 Hide the scale.
💛 Notice what comes up.
💛 Be curious. Be kind.
You don’t have to fix everything. You don’t even have to commit. Just start with hiding it. And see what happens.

To my fellow humans working to unlearn shame and reclaim your body—I see you. You’re not alone. And I’m rooting for you.

✨ Quid Pro Quo Challenge ✨
Come Curious. Come Clinical. Come Correct.
(You don’t need a license, but you do need receipts.)

Let’s break up the doomscrolling with something juicy, brainy, and a little unhinged.

🧠 I give you a celebrity or fictional character to psychoanalyze.
📓 You write up a mini case study in the comments.
🎯 I pick my favorite, and then you challenge me back.

This is for: — psych students
— mental health pros
— pop culture psychology nerds
— anyone who loves a well-earned diagnostic impression with a side of sass

🔍 First case study: That shouty bar guy.
You know the one. Big emotions, zero regulation, and possibly projecting something... deeper.
Let’s dig.

You’ll earn bonus points for: ✔️ Creativity
✔️ Real clinical insight
✔️ Media references (scenes, quotes, receipts)
✔️ Humor that still makes sense

Dr. Gunt-Her is watching.
She accepts no vague vibes or TikTok self-diagnoses. 😏🐾
