Some silly valentines for modern relationships: maybe it's not time to file joint taxes, but you can still acknowledge your likes it when they're around.

These printable valentines cards are free on my shop today! 💌

Last year, I designed a set of 18 classroom-style valentines that bring a little psychology, a little humor, and hopefully some nostalgia. From “You’re my favorite person to co-regulate emotions with” to “Let’s file joint taxes” (because nothing says commitment like . 😅), these cards are perfect for your special relationships. Swipe through to see some of my favorites from this series of doodles- plus a puppy!

Print them at home, cut them out, and share! Link in bio. 💙

As a visual learner, I struggled to learn DBT skills through boring clinical-looking worksheets, so after I became therapist, I reimagined DBT skills in the form of an activity book! The DBT Activity Book teaches Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills using a visual, interactive approach. It's specifically designed for visual learners, neurodivergent folks like me, and anyone who learns best through seeing and doing rather than reading.

Instead of clinical looking worksheets- this book uses doodle-style sketchnotes, illustrated flowcharts, puzzles, games, coloring pages, and tear-out activities created to make DBT concepts easier to grasp and easier to recall. With a top-bound spiral and bleed resistant paper, it's 95 pages of creative activities to engage more of the brain and help skills stick.

Big questions from kids are tough to navigate. Here's a north star to follow: kids aren't looking for facts and forecasting, they are looking for safety.

We can soothe kids (and friends, partners, coworkers, and other people we find community with) when our responses to these questions don't gloss over fear and grief, but underline our values, identity, and relationships- kinda like this otter mom who isn't dismissive or too positive, but helps little otter know that they are in a that will keep them safe and support them even through really hard things.

As for us grownups: Be good to yourself. Offer yourself this same reassurance when thoughts get dark: the disorientation we're spinning through right now is real, but it is not *who* we are. Who we are is people who have survived adversity. We are people who, when previously journeying through desolate landscapes, learned to build campfires in wild places and invite others to gather there. We will grieve, we will rage, and we will keep using the unique skills each of us has to build safety and community for ourselves, in our relationships, and in our communities.

Oh yeah, I have a free printable PDF of this on Patreon. It's free to download there today and for the foreseeable future, even if you aren't a member.

A flow chart for channeling outrage into meaningful action.

There are so many valid reasons to be angry right now, and it wouldn't be surprising if you've noticed it boiling over lately. Caring for the ways we allow, acknowledge, and express anger can channel it away from being a destructive force and into being a constructive one that moves us into meaningful action, community building, and strategizing to protect the most vulnerable.

I appreciate therapist's Bronwyn Schweigerdt's understanding of anger, captured in this sketchnote as she describes how we hold anger, express (or don't express it) and how we can work with it effectively. If you'd like more information, you can listen to the full podcast I created this doodle from ("from repression to expression" clearly clinical podcast) or check out Bronwyn Schweigerdt's own podcast: Angry at the Right Things.

Got you. Here are 6 that match anger → expression → using it constructively (still not overly niche):

Like it? There's SO much more where this came from! I spent last year translating DBT skills into doodled visual illustrations for my Patrons. Now, these same interactive visuals are available in the DBT Activity Book!

Instead of dry worksheets, these pages reimagine skills through doodle-style diagrams, interactive prompts, and visual storytelling. If you’re struggling with the right brain-oriented standard DBT materials, check out my interpretation, made just for visual and/or neurodivergent learners.

When I was early in my work, I really needed skills- but the format of DBT workbooks (clinical vibe, technical language, etc) made the worksheets really difficult for me to use. Fast forward 13 years, a lot of , and one masters, and now I'm making resources for people just like me. I spent the last year visually translating DBT skills into a format more accessible to people who are visual learners, neurodivergent, or very right-brain oriented.

I'm so glad that my DBT activity book is now live and in the world, so I can start showing ya'll what's inside! Here's a first look- What do you think?

There are lots of voices shaping our idea of a - but freedom from comes when we take ownership of that narrative and choose (with mindfulness, integrity, and the wisdom of voices that have *earned* our trust) what the life we really want looks like.

Listening to desire can be terrifying for many of us- it's so much easier to orphan desire to someone else's idea of a "good life."

Listen to your inner voice, spend time in contexts that expand your worldview, and if you feel a little lost, seek the counsel of a friend, therapist, or mentor who can help you explore and examine.

It's easy, even (especially?) for mental health professionals, to define a "good life" with a certain picture of wellness- but being attuned to the people we work with means helping them listen for THEIR goals, ethics, and ideals.

I'm back in the studio this week with lots of brand new sketchnotes, but while I prep them for release on Patreon first, I'm gonna keep sharing more of my illustrations from years past. Here's a page of notes from when I was still in and just beginning to make

Original caption: to hope for a relationship to change requires that we tap into our desire- but often, all the heartache that led to the relationship breaking down also caused us to shut down our willingness to feel desire. A good couples therapist helps partners experiment with finding and naming their desire, in order to begin rebuilding trust.
