Lately I’ve been noticing something that’s hard to ignore:
screens are taking more from people than they realize.

Clients tell me they hate how much they scroll, but can’t stop.
Parents miss moments with their kids.
Adults lose hours without noticing.
Everyone feels more exhausted, less present, and strangely disconnected from their own lives.

Screens feel like rest, but they actually light up our nervous systems.

I wrote about what I’m seeing every day, what constant stimulation does to the brain, and a few small, doable shifts that help people feel grounded again.

No judgment. No fear-mongering.
Just a path back to our roots.



A clinician’s look at how screen use is shaping mood, attention, and connection—with helpful ways to shift away from screens and towards living,

Most people don’t realize they’re arguing with what they heard, not what was actually said.

Usually, couples don’t struggle because they “can’t communicate.”
They struggle because they’re speaking two different emotional languages.

We interpret tone, phrasing, and intention through our own history — and our partner does the same. That’s where the disconnect begins.

This blog breaks down how couples can shift from defensiveness to understanding, repair faster, and create a shared rhythm that feels safe and supportive for both people.

If communication ever feels harder than it “should,” this blog might help make sense why: https://mypoctherapy.com/lost-in-translation-what-happens-when-partners-speak-different-relational-languages

Communication in relationships isn’t instinct — it’s translation. Learn why couples miscommunicate, how assumptions shape connection, and what creates true understanding.

If calming tools don’t work for you, it’s not a lack of effort.

Most people don’t struggle with knowing how to breathe, ground, or slow down.

The struggle happens earlier — that tiny moment when your body decides whether you’re safe enough to pause and decide what to do.

Polyvagal Theory helps explain this: your nervous system scans for danger automatically. If it senses threat (even an old remembered one), it pulls you into protection so fast that reaching for a coping skill becomes nearly impossible.

This isn’t failure. It’s physiology.

The key isn’t learning more techniques, following more mental health experts, or more trying harder — it’s learning how to access an internal sense of safety that allows us to pause in the first place.

Once that pause exists, even briefly, the tools finally become usable.

If your coping skills feel out of reach, it might just mean your body is protecting you faster than you can respond — and there’s a way to gently change that.

Coping tools fall apart in moments of distress. Learn why the missing piece is learning to pause, trust your body’s signals, and anchor to true regulation.

“Did I do something wrong?”

This seems to be the most common response clients have when a therapist recommends another provider after a consultation.

It’s completely normal to wonder.

But referrals aren’t about you being too much, not enough, or doing anything wrong. They’re about making sure you get the kind of care that actually supports you.

Therapists refer out when:
- what you’re dealing with needs a different kind of training
- their schedule can’t offer the consistency you deserve
- there’s a conflict of interest that could make things messy
your situation needs a specialty they don’t have

A referral is a therapist saying, “I care about you getting the right help — even if that help isn’t me.”

It’s not personal.
It’s not a judgment.
It’s simply about making sure you land with someone who can show up for you in the way you need.

No one wants therapy to hurt.
But sometimes it does — not because we're doing it wrong, but because it’s making stiff wounds move.

Like physical recovery, emotional healing asks us to move what we've been holding — guarding. It’s uncomfortable, painful even, but it’s how we get back to ourselves.

Therapy can hurt sometimes — not because you're doing it wrong, but because change is happening. Learn why discomfort can be part of genuine healing.

We like to believe we’re thinking for ourselves.

But what if the system that promises choice is shaping how we see the world — and each other?

Right or Left. Conservative or Liberal.

We’ve been taught these are our only options.
But what if that’s part of the problem?

The two-party system doesn’t just divide politics — it divides our thinking, our relationships, and even our sense of safety.

It keeps us reactive, loyal, and certain that "the other side” is the problem.

In my latest blog, I explore how this structure shapes us more than we realize — and how we can start reclaiming our perspective, empathy, and agency.

Most of us were never taught how to listen to our bodies — only how to silence them.

Pain isn’t an error to fix or a weakness to overcome. It’s a message.
A signal that something inside us needs attention.

When we stop trying to get rid of pain and start getting curious about it, we open the door to healing, understanding, and connection.

Your body isn’t betraying you. It’s speaking to you.


Explore how physical pain carries emotional meaning — and why listening to your body can lead to healing, resilience, and deeper self-understanding.

We don’t see ourselves objectively — we see ourselves through the lens of what we’ve lived and what we’ve learned to believe.

Those beliefs shape how we interpret everything that follows: success, failure, love, and even our own worth.

But beliefs aren’t permanent.

With self-compassion, even the smallest shift — the thought that maybeee you aren’t the absolute worst person alive — can begin to change everything.

“Trauma-informed care” gets used a lot — but what does it actually mean for you as a client?

It means every part of the process is built to help your nervous system feel safe:
- Your messages are answered with warmth and clarity.
- You know what to expect before each session.
- You can disagree, get frustrated, or feel unsure — and still be met with steadiness, not judgment.

It’s about creating an environment sturdy enough to hold whatever you bring — safely, honestly, and without shame.

If you’ve ever wondered what it should feel like to be truly seen, supported, and safe in therapy, this blog breaks down what trauma-informed care really looks like in practice.

Learn what trauma-informed care truly means in therapy — how it’s practiced, why it matters, and how it helps build real safety and trust in healing.

Ever notice how fast we reach for our phones the moment we feel off?

Sadness, boredom, frustration — we scroll, binge, or distract. But the feelings we avoid don’t disappear. They linger in our bodies, our relationships, our stress levels.

We live in an age of instant comfort — temperature-controlled rooms, next-day deliveries, endless streaming.

But when life gets emotionally uncomfortable, most of us still want an “off” switch.

My latest blog looks at why we’ve become so discomfort-avoidant, and what it means to actually stay with our emotions long enough to understand them.

Parenting isn’t a system you can master.

Think of it like a password that keeps updating (without any warning or prompting).

Sometimes the “password” that connects us to our kids suddenly stops working.

When we anticipate growth, we stop trying to “get back to normal” and instead learn what this new version of normal is asking of us.

Today’s blog offers an analogy that can help shift how we respond to our children’s changing needs — from frustration to curiosity and acceptance.

Parenting feels like guessing the password to a system that keeps changing. What if we expected it to? Growth, for both parent and child, is the point.

Therapy isn’t a product—it’s a relationship.

In recent years, corporate therapy companies like BetterHelp, Headway, Alma, and Rula have changed how people find care. While access may look easier, the quality and depth of care often suffer when profit—not people—becomes the priority.

This article explores what we lose when therapy becomes a business model and why therapist-owned practices remain essential for real, relational healing.
