i’m seeing a new therapist…

previously i shared that i was seeing a therapist with betterhelp.com. i wrote this piece back in 2020 and removed it when i wasn’t sure what i was going to do with this blog. i’ve since stopped betterhelp and was without therapy for a few years and now have been back in therapy through a private practice and doing virtual meetings for at least 6 months. i didn’t know what to expect and i am so happy that i took the leap for it.

it’s been something that i truly, truly needed. a person to turn to who is there for affirmation of the path that i am taking. there has been so much inner child work that i have done and trauma work that i have worked through especially within the last 6 months and holy shit, if i didn’t have my therapist there for me to check in with, i don’t know if i would still be here. she is a guiding light in the dark and lonely world.

being a child of neglect and a child that was loved for achieving, life was confusing and frustrating and there was no one telling me what i needed to do. i worked through a lot of mental and emotional pain and i am so happy to have come out on the other side. the intuitive and guiding work i have done and shared with my therapist has created this beautiful space for me to just be myself. everyone deserves a safe place to be themselves. if you have people in your life that supply that to you, good. i am glad to hear that.

i’m seeing a new therapist and it feel so good to be validated and seen and i totally understand now how everything comes from the childhood. everything comes from the subconscious. everything comes from inside of us and some of us weren’t taught how to nurture and heal those parts of ourselves and so now we are trying to do it in the middle of the battle field and it’s a journey.

you’ve got this. you are miraculous. sending you love and light.
