💔 Valentine’s Day can bring flowers, chocolate… and sometimes painful realizations.

If you find yourself:
• Obsessing over a partner
• Staying in unhealthy relationships
• Feeling withdrawal when someone pulls away
• Confusing intensity with intimacy
• Repeating the same relationship patterns

You may not be “too emotional.”
You may be struggling with love addiction.

Love addiction isn’t about weakness — it’s about attachment wounds, trauma bonds, and nervous system patterns that were formed long ago.

The good news?
Healing is possible.

This Valentine’s Day, give yourself something deeper than roses.
Give yourself secure attachment. Emotional clarity. Healthy love.

💙 Teresa Elayyan, LPC, CSAT specializes in:
• Love addiction & attachment trauma
• Betrayal trauma recovery
• Relationship compulsivity
• Sexual addiction & partner healing

You deserve a love that feels safe — not chaotic.

The Protest Psychosis by Jonathan M. Metzl reminds us that Black history is not only written in laws and marches—but also in medical charts, diagnoses, and institutions.

During the Civil Rights and Black Power movements, expressions of protest, anger, and resistance by Black men were increasingly reframed as symptoms of mental illness. Schizophrenia—once associated with passivity—became racialized as a diagnosis of “hostility” and “danger,” often stripping political expression of its context and humanity.

Black History Month calls us to examine not only what happened, but how systems interpreted Black behavior through fear rather than understanding. This book challenges mental health professionals to reckon with the legacy of bias in diagnosis and to ask harder questions about whose experiences were pathologized instead of heard.

At True Heights Treatment, we believe honoring Black history means practicing mental health care with historical awareness, cultural humility, and a commitment to seeing the full person—not just the label.

🏈 SUPER BOWL SUNDAY — STRONG MINDS. STRONGER MEN.

Today’s the day — Super Bowl LX kicks off from Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California! 👏🏼
Two legendary franchises — the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots — are set to battle for football’s biggest prize in front of millions of fans around the world. 

But while the athletes take the field, remember this:
Mental strength is a game-changer too — and it deserves the same intensity, preparation, and pride we see on Super Bowl Sunday.

This one’s for the men who:
• lean in
• train their minds
• face challenges off the field
• and are ready to win in life

Your headspace matters just as much as your performance.

Today we honor Alfred Adler, a pioneer whose ideas continue to shape modern psychotherapy and the way we understand human motivation, purpose, and belonging.

Adler believed that people are not driven by past wounds alone, but by their goals, values, and sense of meaning. His emphasis on social interest, encouragement, and personal responsibility reminds us that healing happens not in isolation—but in connection.

At True Heights Treatment, Adler’s legacy lives on every time we:
• Help clients uncover the purpose behind their struggles
• Focus on strengths, not just symptoms
• Honor the role of family, culture, and community in mental health
• Encourage growth through compassion, accountability, and hope

🧠✨ “Trust only movement. Life happens at the level of events, not of words.” — Alfred Adler

Today, we celebrate a thinker who saw people not as broken—but as becoming.

Catastrophic thinking is a common cognitive distortion we see in CBT.
It happens when the mind automatically jumps to the worst possible outcome—even when there’s little evidence it will happen.

Examples:
• “If I make a mistake, everything will fall apart.”
• “This feeling will never go away.”
• “One bad moment means total failure.”

CBT helps you:
✔ Slow down the thought
✔ Examine the evidence
✔ Replace fear-based assumptions with balanced thinking

You don’t have to believe every thought your mind offers.

Black history is not only something we remember—it’s something we continue to honor, learn from, and build upon.

At True Heights Treatment, we recognize the strength, resilience, and leadership of Black communities, past and present. We also acknowledge the ongoing impact of historical trauma, systemic inequities, and barriers to care—and we remain committed to providing culturally responsive, compassionate, and accessible mental health services.

True Heights Treatment is a psychotherapy group practice serving adults who have been strong for a long time.

Our clients are not broken—they’re often overloaded. They carry responsibility, pressure, and expectations at work, at home, and in their relationships. Many have learned how to cope, push through, and survive. Therapy at THT is about honoring that strength while helping people move forward with more clarity, flexibility, and support.

We believe change doesn’t come from force or shame. It comes from honest conversation, structure, and consistent effort. Our work is grounded, evidence-based, and deeply human—focused on understanding patterns, reducing suffering, and building sustainable change.

True Heights Treatment is intentional about who we serve because fit matters. We work best with adults who want depth, accountability, and a respectful, non-judgmental approach to growth.

You’re not starting from zero.
You’re starting from experience.

And we’re here to help you build from there

Recovery is not about willpower alone—it’s about support, structure, and compassion. Substance use disorder affects individuals, families, and entire communities, and effective treatment meets people where they are without shame or judgment.

Substance Use Disorder Treatment Month is a time to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and highlight that recovery is both possible and sustainable when people have access to the right care. It reminds us that treatment works, that seeking help is a strength, and that no one has to navigate this journey alone.

At True Heights Treatment, we believe healing happens when evidence-based care, human connection, and hope come together. Whether you’re seeking help for yourself or someone you love, treatment is possible—and recovery is real.

Healing starts when we begin to listen — to ourselves and to each other.

So many of us are taught to move quickly past our feelings, explain them away, or silence them altogether. But healing doesn’t begin with fixing or forcing change — it begins with listening.

Listening to the quiet signals from your body.
Listening to the emotions you’ve been pushing aside.
Listening to others with curiosity instead of judgment.

When we slow down enough to listen, understanding grows. And when understanding grows, healing becomes possible.

At True Heights Treatment, we believe that being truly heard is a powerful part of the therapeutic process. If you’ve been carrying things alone, support is available — and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.
