#therapytwitter Have you ever been doing a session, describing Alexithymia (inability to put feelings to words, or words to feelings) & client’s #echo Alexa begins telling a knock knock joke? Yeah that happened. #MentalHealthAwareness #therapy #psychotherapy

I'm just a trauma therapist begging other therapists to not reflexively collude w/ & reinforce the default cultural narrative of "if you're in pain, it's likely your fault, & consequently you do not deserve empathy or support around your pain."

Feelings are without moral meaning

Hey therapists! What’s your favorite evidenced based trauma therapy modality?

When we grew up w/ people playing mind games w/ us, as survivors of emotional abuse did, you bet we're gonna have a strong need for certainty in adult relationships. The "are you mad at me?" & "do you still like me?" questions aren't personal-- we're regulating & reality testing.

Your mental health support is just one click away! Visit Onemorelightcw.com

As soon as we stop assigning moral judgment to our feelings we can begin healing.
