Apologies for my lack of involvement the last few days. Once again, I haven't been feeling well. Why am I posting this meme, specifically? Because, right now, for me, what's out there is the cold and all the germs.

Y'all stay healthy ✨️

Y'all. Ok, ok, ok. So, Imma sum up some things (again). If you have been in the field of mental health (community OR private practice) and the followings have happened:

A client has no-showed/Client has ghosted/You've dreamed about a client/Observed a media overlay with a client experience...

Again, welcome to being a MH therapist.

Don't halt with the what... Explain it all: WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, and HOW.

Stop giving half information.

Like, put your money (and/or attention) grab on a shelf.

I can't even with colleagues like you. 😕

Maybe they're a baby therapist, either they don't get it or they're playing. I did community MH for 14 years prior to private practice.

For real, so let's do it. If you can peep the parrallels, great job 👏

So, honestly, I'm not giving context.

Sometimes, a cigar is just a cigar.

On a personal level, I cannot stand a therapist (let alone a Dr, don't get me started) that doesn't take this position seriously.

So, y'all don't be fooled.

Let's go over some things.

If you're a mental health therapist and you've been in the field for ANY TIME AT ALL and a client has now-showed you (LOL), put a finger up.

If you've been a mental health therapist for ANY TIME AT ALL and a client has ghosted you, put a finger up. Boo, you are playing so far.

If you've been a MH therapist for ANY TIME AT ALL and a parent has gotten mad at you because you're not doing therapy right, put a finger up.

Welcome to the baseline of being a mental health therapist.

C'mon, now.

I understand boundaries, but that doesn't mean I won't be human to human with my folks. It's more than just the eyebrows. C'mon, now. You playing. 👏
