Real talk, this one made me LOL 😆

Feelings are important! That doesn’t mean they should run the show nor should we ignore them. Instead let’s try to find the balancing space in between, where we acknowledge and hold space for them, while continuing to take actions that align with our values 💗

whew, that can be easier said than done, and it’s worth it to keep trying!

While the gym, cooking, music, yoga, running and talking with friends are all great activities and can be important parts of maintaining mental wellness, they aren’t a replacement for therapy! Therapy offers the opportunity to focus on just you, to gain insight, to reflect on where you’ve been and to give yourself compassion as you heal and grow.

This proud Spartan alum doesn’t have a lot to say in the aftermath of the tragedy that took place in East Lansing last night.

Continuing to hold space for sadness, grief, anger, despair, hopelessness, and all of the other emotions.

There are lots of resources and supports available at this time. Please reach out if you are in need 💚🤍

There is a BILLION DOLLAR diet industry that is heavily invested in you hating your body.

It will be nearly impossible to avoid all of the ads, diet talk, and “clean” recipes for the next few weeks.

Instead of goals to lose weight or give up foods you love, perhaps you can practice self compassion and acknowledge all that you’ve been through this year 🤍

Nothing needs to be “wrong” with you to go to therapy. Sometimes people come for a specific reason or certain hurt, and much more often, people want a better understanding of themselves and how to cope with life.

You do you with therapy! 💗

You’re not broken, so you don’t need to be fixed. You’re hurting and you deserve to heal 💗 You so freely give compassion to others, now how about turning some of that inward?

It matters every day, but today the world acknowledges mental health. Let’s continue this conversation while elevating previously silenced voices, reducing the stigma around getting support, and increasing access to services. Mental health is health, and it matters 💗

Feeling burnt out? Kick off your weekend with some self care reminders and tune into Alicia Johnson Online Therapy’s webinar on Friday, 10/7 at 12pm EST 💗

What are you doing tomorrow at noon et?! If you’re free, I’d love to have you join me during my burnout webinar!

It’s all about boundaries, awareness, self care, and how to feel empowered!

Some of my stuff is tailored for therapists but this webinar is for EVERYONE!

Burnout is not field specific and something a lot of people can relate to.

If you know someone who could benefit from it, feel free to share the info! I’ll post the link in the comments!

Hope to see you there! ☺️

Nothing like a reminder for some good old acceptance ✨

Sometimes life is hard and it just sucks. We don’t have to like it, but we also can’t always change it. It’s okay to lean into those feelings and acknowledge their presence.

You’re used to being busy and getting s**t done. You conquer your to do list day in and day out. It feels GREAT to be on top of your game and not only do it all, but do it all WELL.

Except sometimes, life throws you a curve ball. For whatever reason, your heart is a bit heavier, tears are a bit closer to your eyes, your thoughts race faster, and it’s harder to get out of bed in the morning. It’s not quite as easy to juggle everything at once.

It’s okay to slow down, to be still, to rest. You deserve rejuvenation and support. Call or email me today and I’ll help you through this time 💗
