Ever wondered if therapists ever have brain 💨 ?
Spoiler: we do. All the time.
Even with all the training and tools, we’re still humans with very real, very glitchy brains.
But here’s the part that matters—those tiny moments never take away from our compassion, our presence, or our commitment to you.

Therapy isn’t about perfection; it’s about connection, repair, and being real with each other. 💛

What’s a moment that reminded you therapists are human too?

When someone says ‘stop being anxious,’ I wish they knew anxiety isn’t a choice — it’s a nervous system response.

If ‘ya, cálmate’ actually worked, none of us would need coping skills.🙃

Here are a few steps you can take to show up for someone struggling with anxiety.

1. Validate, don’t correct.
Swap “you’re overreacting” for “I can see this feels really intense.”
Validation lowers shame and helps the nervous system settle.

2. Remember anxiety is physiological.
Racing thoughts, tight chest, irritability—these are automatic responses, not choices.
Treating anxiety like a decision only increases distress.

3. Co-regulate instead of commanding.
Slow your breathing, soften your tone, sit with them.
Safety calms faster than “just relax.”

4. Ask what type of support they want.
“Do you want problem-solving, grounding, distraction, or just company?”
Most people know what helps; they just need space to say it.

5. Gently anchor them in the present.
Try: “One slow breath?” “Three things you see?” “Want some fresh air?”
This helps the thinking brain come back online.

6. Don’t make them ‘perform calm.’
Removing pressure to act fine actually helps them regulate.

7. Stay curious.
“What might your anxiety be trying to protect you from?”
Curiosity opens the door; dismissiveness shuts it.

8. Check in later.
A simple “How are you feeling now?” builds safety and connection.

😏💅🏻 who else relates?

Sometimes your nervous system is like, “Ma’am/ Sir… please breathe. I’m trying to keep you alive, not run a marathon in your mind.”

And the science backs it up. Slow, intentional breathing (especially that deep belly breathing) activates your parasympathetic nervous system — the “rest and regulate” part of your body. Research shows it can lower heart rate, reduce cortisol, and help your brain shift out of threat mode.

So the next time you catch yourself spiraling, try giving your body a cue:

Inhale for 4sec … exhale for 6sec.

Your nervous system will go, “Ohhh, we’re safe? Bet.”

Healing often begins with choosing a new story—one that honors where you’ve been and supports where you’re going.

At Chanderbhan Psychological Services in Laredo, we help you navigate that process with clarity and compassion.

📰 Newsflash: Motivation I thought I’d have today? Still MIA. 🙃

Some days it’s about getting one small thing done.
Other days it’s about letting yourself rest.
Either way, it counts.

And if you ever feel stuck, a therapist can help you find your balance.

Chanderbhan Psychological Services wishes you a Happy Thanksgiving, in whatever way feels right for you. ✨

Gratitude today doesn’t have to be big or perfect.
Research shows that noticing even one small, true thing you appreciate can gently lift your mood and help your mind slow down.

On a day like Thanksgiving — which can feel joyful, busy, or overwhelming — it’s enough to pause and notice something that supported you, comforted you, or made the day a little easier.

If you filled in even one blank from this carousel, you practiced gratitude in a real and meaningful way.
