Healing Perspectives
HEALING PERSPECTIVES: TIME WELL SPENT, COUNSELING AND RESOURCE CENTER, LLC·FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 2018·

As a wise young woman reminded me recently, "Sometimes, it hurts to be human." Often what brings someone to a therapist's office is the experience of suffering or ineffectiveness. What keeps someone coming back is relief from suffering and the gaining of insight, acceptance, hope and effective skills that add joy, meaning and purpose towards a life well lived. I embrace faith, recovery, self-care, family, resiliency, vulnerability, humility, being mindfully present, and radical acceptance of what is, in order to fortify a solid foundation for positive change on a path to both feeling better and doing better. In practice since 1990, I am a Licensed Master's Social Worker (LMSW), Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CAADC). In 2018, I completed Intensive Dialectical Behavior Therapy training while practicing and participating on a DBT Consultation Team for a period of 18 months. I hold advanced certifications in Family Therapy and Clinical Supervision. If you or someone you love is seeking counseling or resources/referrals to address addiction, relationship stress, parenting, trauma, special needs, aging, loss, mental health or personal growth, know that you are not alone.

Teach your kids early that their worth isn’t something to be earned — it’s something to be remembered. That they don’t need to twist themselves into shapes to be liked, or silence parts of who they are just to fit in. That the right people will hold them as they are — and the wrong ones will fall away.

Because the world will try to convince them that approval is the prize — that being liked means belonging. But if you have to trade pieces of yourself to keep your place, that isn’t belonging — it’s performance.

The truth is, peace doesn’t come from being accepted by everyone. It comes from liking who you are when you stay true — even when others don’t understand.

So show them how to take that invisible “I want you to like me” sticker off their forehead and place it on the mirror — where it belongs. As a reminder that the person whose approval matters most is the one looking back.

Because when they’re anchored in that kind of self-respect, they won’t mistake acceptance for love, or trade connection for approval. And when they learn to live from that place, their happiness won’t hinge on being liked, and their peace won’t depend on anyone else’s applause…

It will come from knowing they were already enough. ❤️

Befriend the discomfort. Listen to what your emotions are telling you.
Only by understanding can we process and move on.
This may take repeated attempts.
