Tripping out over the accuracy!

"Your work will soften the troubles of others."

As a mental health therapist who focuses women and professionals, most to all of my clients are dealing with major stress.

It’s an honor to help you go from feeling stressed to having wellness, balance, and a sense of joy in your life, again.

Troubles are a normal part of life, but you don't HAVE to carry the whole heavy burden.

PSYCH-TIP for Today: When a situation feels hard, shift your focus to your thinking. Instead of immediately believing a bad thought, ask yourself: "What is a nicer, but still true, way to see this problem?"

This trick creates space and starts to "soften the trouble," helping you respond clearly instead of just reacting.

If you’re a professional ready to find an easier path, send Marina Barbosa PsychHealth a message.

Night Out, Super Moon, & Mental Health Refill. Watch out D.C. Mom on the loose!
The mental load is officially muted, and my caretaker duties are clocked out so I can have a night out in Washington D.C.

Tonight, it’s all about recharge and self-care. ✨ I'm tending to my own needs for joy, community, and conversation—a crucial mental health break.

No chores, just feeding my soul.

The recent Full Moon Super Moon over the capital, coincidence? I think not. This energy is exactly what I need to let the good times roll. 🥂

🧟‍♀️ Am I a busy mom in Washington DC trying to make things work for everyone, or am I a zombie? Somedays I'm both! I know you feel me D.C. mommies 😂

Seriously though, this is my current reality: teaching my kid's scout troop the "Thriller Dance" with a full zombie face 🧟‍♀️.

The low down for real...some days, trying to balance a career, parenting, in addition to everything else going on in our fast paced, high-demand city leaves me feeling exactly like this!!!

We professional moms in D.C. - our attention, time, and demands are pulled in so many different ways!

It's easy to get lost in the shuffle and forget to take care of the person behind the mask (or the zombie makeup).

That's why prioritizing your mental health isn't a luxury—it's essential.

If you're a busy professional feeling the overwhelm, remember that seeking support is a sign of strength.

Whether it's a quick break or starting therapy, giving yourself the space to breathe and process is the best move.

P.S. Yes, they nailed the choreography! 🕺

Would you like me to adjust the tone, or create a similar caption for a different social media platform?

Strength and Balance, Mental Health and Physical Wellness: are they not intertwined?

When working on stabilizing my body—it mirrors the work I do every day to stabilize my mind.

Physical fitness isn't just about intense activity; it's about building a solid, responsive core.

The same is true for mental health.

Developing emotional resilience is like strengthening a muscle—it takes consistent, intentional practice and is vital for overall wellness

If you're struggling to find your footing, remember that seeking professional support is a powerful step toward building a stronger foundation.
