WHAT IF I'M UNHAPPY W/ MY THERAPIST?
You should feel you can talk to your therapist & that they're interested in & understand you. If you don't connect in the beginning, it's wise to choose someone else. As therapy continues, you may feel upset or disappointed. This is normal. Talk about it. 5/6
IS THERAPY LIKE TALKING TO A FRIEND?
With friends, you pick & choose what you talk about. In therapy, you try to say whatever comes to mind, without knowing where your thoughts may lead. Friends take turns sharing information. In therapy, you will do most of the talking. 4/6
HOW WILL TALKING HELP ME?
Talking is the heart of psychotherapy. As you talk, you come to know yourself better. You start to recognize patterns. New options and possibilities emerge. Research shows that most people benefit from therapy, even those with the most serious problems. 3/6
WHAT DO I DO IN THERAPY?
Talk as openly as you can about whatever is on your mind. Some thoughts will seem unimportant. Others may feel unpleasant, embarrassing, or inappropriate, including thoughts about your therapist. Say them anyway. 2/6
Starting therapy can bring up lots of questions. Here are the ones we hear most:
WILL A THERAPIST GIVE ME ADVICE?
Advice isn't psychotherapy. You can get advice from friends/ the internet. Your therapist will help you see yourself & your situation more clearly so you can make informed choices. 1/6

In troubled times, it's hard not to focus on the struggle. But knowing there's something extraordinary waiting on the other side certainly helps 🌻
The feelings will come whether you want them or not. The key is to acknowledge them without judgement, and take care of yourself as they work their way through your body.
Self-regulation is not something most of us are taught, but it can certainly be learned.

Yeah it's too cold in Pasadena right now for this! 🥶
Try a nice warm shower. Maybe a bubble bath. A nap under a weighted blanket. And some hot chocolate ☕
Have a great weekend! From your friends that Rose City Center 🌹

Sometimes the most important thing you can do is to be loud about those feelings.
Don't suffer in silence.

Is your inner voice just noise? Or a call for help?
We are so excited to share "VOICES - a mental health micro short film, a video project as part of a recent expansion of Rose City Center's social media presence.
What does your inner voice often say?
It's the weekend. Maybe let some of those big feelings out before they get too big?
Then maybe a nice cool glass of lemonade. Or a nap. Or both ☺️

Feeling about 10 years old in triggered trauma age at the moment.
The work continues.
Sometimes it gets easier.
Sometimes you take a few steps back.
Sometimes you just need a pause to recalibrate.
