Imagine waking up @ 7:20am to be to work by 8:20am. You only get a half hour for lunch & it’s back to work until 4:00pm. You’re told you HAVE to do more work after you get off that is due in the am that could take anywhere between 1-3hrs. This is what we do to CHILDREN

brom Most people seem to benefit from psychedelic experiences, but there's evidence therapy increases/prolongs the beneficial effects of psychedelics. Therapy also increases the 'beneficial' effects of placebo🤷🏽‍♂️

National election days are stark reminders of the injustice of the nearly 700,000 DC residents, who pay the same federal taxes as residents of states, having no voting representation in Congress and only limited, revocable local self-governing authority.

A perfect time to remind y’all that therapy is political

WE WON!!!! History was made tonight. We made history for Floridians, for Gen Z, and for everyone who believes we deserve a better future. I am beyond thankful for the opportunity to represent my home in the United States Congress. #FL10

I have zero allegiance to social work. My allegiance is to healing, justice & liberation.

I want people to understand that therapy isn’t always heavy. Sometimes it is. But I also laugh a lot.

I don’t know if a lot of people know how massive Rock Creek Park really is

Problems with medicalising distress 👇 — We are told we should label our experiences not explore them — Remove our feelings not feel them — Accept our conditions not change them *This does *not* mean we are responsible for our suffering, nor that it should not be helped

If I had one wish for the field of mental health it would be that all clients were matched with the best, most aligned therapist for them on their first try

My first big one for Vox, on psychedelics beyond psychiatry. Psychedelics have far more to offer than simply the next generation of psychiatric treatment. But what, exactly, & how to make them more widely available, while balancing the risks? vox.com/future-perfect…

our bodies hold so much wisdom! much more than we give ‘em credit for. depression is often a natural and intelligent response to an environment or situation that is no longer nourishing us

You may not be political as a therapist, but what you do is. Psychotherapy is a social practice, like medicine or law, and so, like them, has a cumulative effect on society. Such effects are influenced by the ideologies it advances. This is why it intrigues the sociologist so.

What expert therapists understand that others do not: “What the patient does with the therapist in the room always holds a key to what caused her problem, what has kept it going, and what has made it difficult for her to benefit from previous efforts to treat it” —Mary Jo
