Why this works ⬇️

Just because someone is venting to you or sharing about a problem, doesn’t mean they are asking for solutions. In fact, if someone just wants to feel heard, jumping into problem-solving mode can overwhelm and frustrate them further.

This line works with partners, family, friends, even coworkers (though maybe read the room before including the “held” line with coworkers!)

Asking “Do you want to be heard, helped, or held?” before responding can allow the person to express their needs clearly and helps you respond in a way that truly supports them. Instead of guessing, you’re giving them control over what kind of comfort or action they need, which can help them feel validated and supported in the moment and deepen trust and connection for the long-term.

Pssst... send them this Reel and keep reading for more ways to handle this situation.

The pressure of reaching out to loved ones when you’re already feeling low can make the mental toll feel even heavier. It’s not that you don’t care or that you’re ignoring the people you love—sometimes, you just need some time to disconnect and process. Here are a few simple strategies to fall back on when you get into a funk:

Quick Text: “Hey, I’m okay, just feeling a bit off and need some time to recharge. I’ll reach out when I’m back on track.”

Away Message: Certain messaging apps let you set an away message (ahem, iMessage, can you get on this?) consider setting one that gently explains you’re taking some time for yourself: “Taking a mental health break—I’ll get back to you soon!”

Safe Word: Establish a word or phrase with your close friends or family that signals you’re okay but need space, like “Time Out” or “Recharge Mode.” (This can also be a great strategy for when you need support but are having trouble asking specifically, “SOS” or “Code Red”)

Pre-Written Note: Keep a pre-written note handy in your notes app that you can quickly send when needed. Something like, “I’m feeling a bit disconnected right now, but I’m safe. Just need some time to recalibrate.”

Did any of these strategies land well for you? Let us know how you handle times like this!

Our Story...

If you’re here you may be wondering… where did Blue Boat Counseling come from? I realize it’s unconventional as practice names go, but its story starts when I was a kid. I loved blue, and it seemed to run deeper than just a favorite color. It went for all the typical things, but the practice name comes from our summer trips to amusement parks. I would get in line for the rides and always wait for the blue boat (or car or plane). Yes, this means I let other riders go ahead of me while I waited for blue, which always got a few looks. When I look back on that scene today, I realize I was just being the real me. And that blue boat is a symbol of being your true self, which is exactly what I try to help my clients find. So I decided there was no better symbol for my counseling practice than this one of authenticity and freedom to be yourself. I want my blue boat to be a reminder that you deserve to BE YOU.
