How to Find the Right Therapist: What Research Says Actually Matters
Starting therapy can feel overwhelming. Many people wonder: How do I find the right therapist? Does the type of therapy matter? What if I pick the wrong one? You might see terms like EMDR, CBT, or IFS and wonder which approach is “best.” While finding a therapist whose approach aligns with your goals is important, research consistently shows that the therape
What to Do After Your Client Uses Psychedelics
Most clinicians were never trained for this moment. Now it’s happening in session. A client mentions a recent psilocybin experience through Oregon’s legal services.

I'm tired of the version that frames it as a personality quirk, a boundary problem, or a self-esteem issue we just need to do the work on. That framing skips over the most important thing, which is that people-pleasing is a survival strategy that worked. It equated to safety, and sometimes to love, which kind of

It's the tired that comes from being the one who notices. It's exhausting being the one who feels the shift in the room, who registers the tightness in som
