Sometimes, no amount of problem-solving, planning, or pushing can change a painful reality. That’s where radical acceptance comes in. It’s not approval, it’s not giving up. It’s the courageous act of saying:

“This is what’s happening right now. I may not like it, but I accept it.”

✨ What is Radical Acceptance?
A core Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skill, radical acceptance is the full embrace of reality as it is, without denial, resistance, or judgment.

✨ Why it helps:
• Reduces suffering caused by fighting reality
• Helps regulate overwhelming emotions
• Creates space for peace and wise decision-making
• Keeps you grounded when control isn’t an option

✨ How to practice it:
• Notice what you’re resisting (a breakup, diagnosis, loss, rejection)
• Acknowledge the facts, even if they hurt
• Say to yourself: “This is what’s happening, and I don’t have to like it to accept it.”
• Let go of “shoulds” and “if onlys” that fuel suffering
• Repeat as often as needed—acceptance is a practice

📌 Radical acceptance doesn’t mean you agree with what happened.
It means you stop arguing with reality—so you can begin to heal.

Need help learning how to do this in your own life?
Our therapists at Practical Online Therapy are here to support you with grounded, compassionate care.

Today, we honor Juneteenth—a powerful day of remembrance, resilience, and the continued pursuit of freedom and healing for Black Americans.

We also uplift Dr. Joy DeGruy, a fellow social worker (MSW, PhD) whose work on Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome has reshaped how we understand the impact of intergenerational trauma, racism, and historical oppression on mental health.

At Practical Online Therapy, our team of licensed therapists shares this foundational belief: knowing your past is essential to healing your present and shaping your future.

Whether you’re navigating depression, anxiety, anger, or intergenerational trauma, our therapists are here to support you with care that is grounded, thoughtful, and trauma-informed.

is a normal, healthy emotion — but HOW we express it matters.

is reactive and often leads to damaged relationships or regret. It’s only necessary in rare cases of imminent physical threat.

What most situations call for is : the ability to express your needs, opinions, and boundaries clearly and respectfully.

If you’ve been told you’re “too much” when you speak up, or “too quiet” when you hold back — there’s a better way.

🎯 Our therapists, Melanie Joaquin and Nicole Sappia, specialize in helping clients in New York and New Jersey build assertive communication skills that get your needs met without causing conflict.

Let’s help your voice be heard — with strength and respect.
