Therapy for Children in California
“Don’t cry!”
“Stop being so sensitive.”
Do these sound familiar?
When kids are taught to suppress their emotions, they carry those lessons into adulthood.
Emotional suppression in childhood often stems from well-meaning but misguided messages.
Over time, these messages can shape how adults navigate their emotions and relationships, often leading to:
Believing their feelings don’t matter.
Struggling to ask for help or set boundaries.
Over-apologizing or over-sharing in an effort to connect.
The good news? Awareness is the first step toward healing.
As adults, we can learn to reconnect with our emotions, validate our experiences, and break the cycle of emotional suppression.
If this resonates, know you’re not alone, and it’s never too late to rewrite your story.
Therapy can provide a safe space to explore these patterns and build healthier connections with yourself and others.
