"Let me help you get out of your own way.”
We asked Frame therapist Taneille Smith to share a #therapymoment she was proud of, and we found her answer here to be quite inspiring.
The stories we tell ourselves, about ourselves, can amplify stress and create blockers we didn't even realize we were creating. The right therapist can help you recognize those stories.

Understanding our attachment style is an important step in understanding our relationship dynamics and where we have room for healing and growth.
It's important that we do not judge ourselves in this exploration, but rather practice self-compassion in a mindful way.

The lies we tell ourselves! Is this a familiar experience for you?
Isolating yourself in thought, mistaking emotions for truths, casting false confirmation that no one else faces these challenges.
Frame therapist Ilona Varo shared this powerful “ah-ha moment” in our recent Frame Discussion on Imposter Syndrome. She also shared valuable tools and exercises you can do to begin to recognize and separate destructive emotions v. reality.

Somewhere along the way, negative emotions got a bad rap. Something we should push away, or apologize for entertaining. As it turns out, negative emotions are key to your mental health and it's the ultimate goal in therapy to be able to acknowledge and express your full range of emotions. Head over to our stories for more info on why you shouldn't fear your negative emotions.
Next Monday, October 26, we'll be having a live discussion on this topic with Alex Weber (public speaker & American Ninja Warrior) @imalexweber to discusses with Frame therapist Chris Smith @smithchris808 the ways in which his negative emotions fuel his positivity, and tools for how we can all get comfortable with our full range of emotions.

"Remember that this transition is not a *boom* you're changed. It's a day to day constant. Change happens throughout time." - Ilona Varo, LMFT
Transitioning into motherhood is similar to adolescence - it's a phase. Give yourself time and grace that it's going to be a little choppy and it's not going to be smooth sailing. Get used to the process and flow with it!
Thank you @ilonavaro and @holly_coco1 for an insightful conversation around motherhood and how to transition into a new identity and role.
We care about community and having conversations that matter. So do our friends at Quilt, a new kind of social network. In this video, Frame CEO & Co-founder Kendall Bird chats with Holly, the Head of Community at Quilt, to talk all things mental health and Frame!
