✨ The holidays are officially behind us, and we’re diving into the final long stretch of winter. ❄️ While the festive season was full of joy and excitement, winter months can feel a little... bleak. Whether it’s due to Seasonal Affective Disorder or just the natural dip in energy during the colder days, we can all experience a little more gloom during this time of year. But don’t worry—there are ways to combat the winter blues! 💙

Here are a few tips to help you feel brighter during the darker months:

Get outside – Even if it’s cold, sunlight (or even cloudy skies) can help boost your mood. A brisk walk or time in nature can work wonders. 🌞

Stay active – Exercise releases those feel-good endorphins! Whether it’s a cozy yoga session at home or a fun winter sport, movement matters. 🏃🏽‍♀️⛷️

Practice self-care – Pamper yourself with warm baths, skincare routines, or indulging in hobbies that bring you joy. 🛁🎨

Stay connected – Even if social events slow down, make time to check in with loved ones through calls or virtual hangouts. 🤗

Embrace cozy vibes – Light candles, drink warm beverages, and create a comforting atmosphere at home. 🌟☕️

Consider a mood-boosting supplement – Vitamin D or light therapy can help if you’re lacking in sunlight. ☀️

It’s all about taking small steps to nurture yourself and embrace the season for what it is. You’ve got this! 🌱💙

What if I don’t have specific goals at the start of therapy?

Specific goals aren’t a requirement to start therapy.

Sometimes, just having the desire to feel better or understand yourself more is the perfect starting point.

Once you’re in therapy, you and your therapist will take the time to explore what’s on your mind, uncover areas for growth, and set goals that feel right for you.

The most important part is simply to get started!

Does your family Thanksgiving serve up worry and anxiety alongside the turkey and mashed potatoes? 😣🫣 🦃 🥔

If so, remember:

You are not the child you once were. As an adult, you have the power to define your own boundaries, protect your peace, and choose how you engage with the world around you - yes, even your family!

It’s okay to step back from conversations or situations that make you uncomfortable. You don’t need to participate in anything that feels unsafe, disempowering, patronizing or distressing.

You are allowed to say “no,” or to walk away from a situation in order to prioritize your emotional well-being.

This year you’re thanksGIVING healthy boundaries with family! 🍁

Therapy is a safe, confidential space where your privacy is protected under HIPAA, ensuring that your personal health information stays between you and your therapist. However, there are a few exceptions:

1️⃣ If there’s suspected abuse of a child, elder, or vulnerable adult. 2️⃣ If your therapist believes you may be at risk of harming yourself or someone else. 3️⃣ For insurance and billing purposes, your therapist might need to share certain details about your treatment.

You also have the power to sign a release of information, which gives your therapist your permission to provide information on your treatment to others. This is often used when a client wants collaboration between their healthcare providers.

The goal of these exceptions is to protect you and others, while still maintaining the trust and privacy of the therapeutic relationship. 💙

A standard therapy session is typically 50 minutes long. ⏳ This time frame gives you the space to process and discuss what’s on your mind with your therapist, while also allowing them the time at the end of session to properly document your session and reset for the next client. It’s a balance that helps ensure each client can get the most out of every conversation!

Got the Election Day scaries? We get it!

At Dwell, we understand that this can be a time of heightened anxiety. Uncertainty can weigh heavily, especially when we’re deeply invested in our candidates.

Remember, you don’t have to navigate this alone—lean on your community for support. Reach out to friends and family that you know will be a comfort to you. Maybe plan an outing with some of your favorite people to take your mind off of things.

Limit your media consumption as necessary to protect your mental wellness. Being tuned in for every update won’t impact the outcome of the election, but it may impact your mental space. Stay tuned into how you’re feeling and use that to judge whether it’s time to take a step back from the news.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, consider scheduling time with your therapist. Your mental health matters.

In therapy, the frequency of your sessions is all about you—your unique goals and the struggles you’re facing. You’ll likely have a good sense of how much support you want and need, so trust your instincts!

Your therapist will be there to support you, too; if they notice you could benefit from more frequent sessions, they might suggest increasing your visits. On the flip side, if they see you making great progress, they might recommend tapering off a bit.

It’s also important to keep in mind that your well-being is the top priority. If your therapist feels that your needs might be better met with a higher level of care, they’ll gently encourage you to explore those options.

Remember, you’re not alone in this journey—your therapist is here to help you find the best path forward!
