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. Another discloses they’ve been using ketamine recreationally, and something shifted. A third describes a profound, disorienting experience from years ago that they’ve never shared with anyone — until now.

I want to talk about people-pleasing, but not in the way it usually gets talked about. 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
What We Lose When We're Not Believed
There's a kind of tired I want to talk about, because I don't think it gets named enough, and because I've lived inside of it, and because the people who walk into my office almost always know exactly what I mean before I finish the sentence. 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
