Regulated people at Thanksgiving aren’t the ones smiling through everything.

They’re the ones who step outside when they need to.

Who leave early without apologizing.

Who say “I’m not discussing that” and actually mean it.

Regulation isn’t about being calm all the time….It’s about catching yourself before you spiral and actually using your tools.

It looks like:
Having a plan before you arrive
Noticing your body’s signals early
Taking action before you hit your breaking point
Setting boundaries without explanation
Recovering intentionally afterward

This is what DBT and nervous system work teaches you.

Not how to avoid hard situations, but how to move through them with actual skill.

The difference between people who get through today intact and people who don’t? Skills. That’s it!!

You’re not trying to feel nothing….You’re learning to work WITH your nervous system instead of fighting it.

Thanksgiving is a good day to put those skills to work.

Ready to build regulation skills that actually work?

Your anxiety isn’t being dramatic. It’s just really, really vigilant. 😓

If you related to any of these, you’re not alone. Anxiety shows up in the smallest moments - the ones that feel too “insignificant” to even mention but take up so much mental space.

📣 So here’s what I want you to know: these aren’t character flaws! They’re nervous system responses.
Your brain is doing what it thinks it needs to do to keep you safe.

The problem is, it’s working overtime - treating low-stakes situations like high-threat scenarios.

The good news? You can actually teach your nervous system to recalibrate. And that’s literally what we do in therapy.

My clients and I work on….
✨ Recognizing when you’re in threat mode
✨ Using tools that bring you back to baseline
✨ Building tolerance for uncertainty (because that’s what anxiety hates most)
✨ Learning what actually regulates YOUR system

You don’t have to live like this.
Anxiety doesn’t have to control your life.

If you’ve ever said any of these things in therapy (or to yourself), I need you to hear this:

Your anxiety is not an inconvenience. You’re not “too much.” You’re not wasting anyone’s time. You’re not broken.

Therapy isn’t just for people in crisis. It’s for people who are tired of living in constant fight-or-flight mode. It’s for people who are functioning on the outside but barely holding it together inside.

You don’t have to apologize for being human. You don’t have to be “sick enough” to deserve help.

If you’re anxious and exhausted and tired of doing this alone, that’s enough. That’s literally why I’m here.
You’re not too much. You’re exactly who therapy is for.

A little glimpse into how I reset over the weekend as a licensed therapist…
🚲 Moved around energy stored in my body by riding bike to gym
🏋️‍♀️ When in doubt, sweat it out
🐕 My welcoming home committee (he’s veryyyy welcoming 😂)
🪴 Barefoot in the garden, soaking up the mid morning sunlight
🎾 Played fetch with Bodhi because he always makes me laugh
📖 Reading and learning something new always makes me feel recharged and excited for my week
🥘 Cooked some yummy food to fuel myself and care for my body
💛 Bodhi hugs heal anything
🏝️ Took a little trip to the beach to practice some mindfulness and listen to the waves

How do you reset over your weekend or days off? Do you have go-to activities that fill your cup? ✨ 🍵

Riding the waves of emotion isn’t about fighting the current, it’s about learning to navigate. 🌊

As a therapist, I help you develop the skills to observe your urges without getting swept away.

Emotional resilience isn’t about suppression…it’s about understanding. ✨

When anxiety rises, you have the power to breathe, pause, and choose your response.

Where is the lie? 😂
Therapists sound off- have we all been hitting the foot switch sound machine method?

Most of what you’ve been told about anxiety is wrong. And it’s keeping you stuck.

After years of specializing in anxiety treatment, I’ve realized that a big part of my job is correcting myths. Myths that make people feel broken, weak, or like they’re doing something wrong.

Let’s be clear: Anxiety is not a personal failure. It’s a nervous system response. And most of the common advice out there - “just relax,” “think positive,” “stop worrying” - isn’t just unhelpful. It’s harmful.

Treatment works. Not the Instagram wellness version - actual, evidence-based therapy. DBT, exposure therapy, somatic work, mindfulness practices that are grounded in nervous system science.

If you’ve been trying to “fix” your anxiety on your own and feeling like a failure because it’s not working - this is why. You’ve been working with the wrong information.

Swipe through to learn what’s actually true about anxiety. And if you’re ready to try something that actually works, I’m here.

You’re not broken. You just need the right tools. 🧰

This isn’t just about “beach vibes” or unwinding. It’s about nervous system regulation …and the ocean does it SO WELL 🌊

When you’re at the beach, your brain gets constant signals that you’re safe: rhythmic waves, open space, sand and salt air. These aren’t just pleasant - they’re regulating your system. 🩵

This practice takes five minutes and pulls from mindfulness and somatic therapy. It’s not meditation - just intentional presence with one of the most calming environments out there.

Try it next time you’re at the beach. Your nervous system will thank you. 🙏🏻

The way you talk to yourself matters.
Self-compassion isn’t self-indulgence.
It’s actually a survival skill. One that helps you cope with stress and build resilience when life gets hard. ❤️
