When people come to therapy and say they feel “stuck”, “unmotivated”, or “lost”…it’s most often due to a misalignment of values. Somewhere along the line they drifted away from being the person they truly want to be or building the life they really want to live.

That’s okay! It happens. And we can get back on track.

Start by asking yourself these 3 questions, and let me know in the comments - did they help you uncover any new (or old!) values?

It’s my birthday today, and I’ve been reflecting on some of the lessons that have shaped me, stretched me and humbled me over my 36 years as a human, friend, partner, therapist and mom. Some I am still very much in the middle of learning. And that is okay.

Here’s to getting older, softer in some places, stronger in others, and a little more honest with myself each year ❤️

Stress says “I have too much to do”.
Burnout says “I have nothing left to give”.

Stress is about overload, burnout is about depletion. And you don’t fix depletion with better time management. If you’re feeling burnt out, the work isn’t to “push through”. It’s to pause. Reduce demands where possible. Reconnect with meaning. Get support. And protect rest like it matters…because it does.

Back again with some more frequently asked questions about therapy 💌

Reaching out for a first session can feel scary if you’ve never been to therapy before! My hope is that this series can help reduce even a bit of that anxiety and make sending that email or booking that session feel more doable.

What other questions would you like to see answered in future posts??

If you ARE ready to book that first session, we are accepting new clients at - you can book in for a free meet and greet or an intake at the link in bio or by visiting www.commonthreadpsychology.com

Why is it so important to have a therapist that’s a “good fit”? Put simply…it’s because the relationship itself often is the therapy.

Techniques, interventions and training matters. But it’s the felt sense of being understood, respected and cared for that drives change.

When the relationship is right…the work can actually…well, work. And you deserve nothing less.

I’m curious - how many therapists did you try before you found “the one”?

Let’s talk about regulation for a second.

Having a regulated nervous system does not necessarily mean you’re feeling calm. You may feel nervous, deeply sad, or extremely angry and still be regulated. Regulation is not about lessening feeling states, but it is about your system’s ability to tolerate those states safely.

When regulated, you can respond intentionally rather than react based solely on overwhelming emotional cues. Your system can shift between rest, alertness, and engagement as needed rather than staying tuned up or shut down all the time.

Regulation is the foundation of safety, choice, resilience and healthy relationships.

So no, regulation isn’t just about being calm. It’s about learning to allow your body to experience the entire realm of human emotion safely and to maintain the flexibility to respond intentionally.

Calm is optional. Safety, choice and flexibility are not.

There’s a lot to get through 😂

First sessions can feel overwhelming. Where do I start? What is relevant? Am I oversharing? Where do we go from here?

Take a deep breath. There is no rush to get through everything in the first session. A good therapist will help you slow down, determine what is most important to YOU to get through that day, and make a plan for moving forward.

And if your therapy sessions DO sound like this - don’t worry, you’re not doing it wrong. This hopefully has to go without saying, but there’s no such thing as oversharing in the therapy space ❤️

CPTSD often develops in environments where emotional safety or consistency was missing. In such environments, our nervous systems adapt to survive. Over time, these adaptations (which were very important) start to make less sense in our current environments.

Therapy can help make sense of these adaptations, reduce shame, and support the nervous system in learning that the present is safer now. It happens slowly, collaboratively, and at your pace.

If this resonates…it doesn’t mean something is wrong with you. I repeat: it does not mean something is wrong with you. It means your system learned to do what it needed to in order to get you through. And now it can learn something new.

If you are looking for therapy, we are accepting new clients at both in person in Airdrie and across Alberta virtually. Reach out for your free consult at the link in bio today or visit www.commonthreadpsychology.com for more information 🤍

We tend to judge today’s effort using yesterday’s capacity. But your nervous system, energy and life context change day to day.

Sometimes your best might be focused and productive. Sometimes it might be simply getting through the day. Both count. Be kind to yourself ❤️
