Hi friends, it’s Jack again, your resident emotional support dog 🐾. Let’s talk about comfort objects! You know, those things that help you feel grounded when the world feels a little too big or overwhelming—like a cozy blanket, a favorite hoodie, or even a stress ball.
Comfort objects aren’t just for kids—they’re for anyone who needs a little extra help calming down or feeling safe. They remind us of stability, warmth, and familiarity, which can be so helpful when anxiety strikes.
And guess what? If you’re coming to therapy, you’re more than welcome to bring your comfort object with you! Whether it’s your favorite mug, a soft scarf, or even a photo that brings you peace, having it nearby can make the space feel more like your space.
It’s all about creating an environment where you feel comfortable and supported—because therapy is your time to heal, reflect, and grow. So, what’s your go-to comfort object? I’d love to hear about it! 🐕❤️
