Somatic Therapist

 


Trick or treat: spooky season is upon us!

This Halloween, remember that the best costumes are ones that don't perpetuate harmful stereotypes about mental illness.

Costumes like...

🎃 Straightjackets
🎃 "Psycho" masks
🎃 Insane asylum patients

...make light of the very real struggles faced by people with mental illness, and preserve the misconception that mental illness is something to be feared.

Remember: someone's disease is not a Halloween costume. By dressing up in one of these costumes, you might inadvertently be hurting someone you care about.

If you can't think of something scarier than someone with a mental health condition, then you're not being creative enough!

New Parents Needing Support

Parenting can be satisfying and fulfilling. But it can also be difficult and time-consuming. Parents must tend to an infant or child’s daily needs. They are also responsible for helping each of their children develop life skills. These skills include daily living skills, social skills, and appropriate behaviors. Parents with more than one child must account for the personalities of each, as well. New parents , overwhelmed parents, and parents facing mental health conditions may benefit from the support of a mental health professional. A  therapist or counselor  can help parents through difficult situations or behavioral concerns. https://www.lifebydesigntherapy.com/
