I just finished my latest lego project - magnolia branches - and put them in my therapy room. I have a bunch of these botanical sets and I change which one is in the background of my virtual therapy sessions. I moved a lego orchid to add this one, and before that it was a Japanese maple bonsai tree

It's November. The holidays are coming. Maybe there's something you're dreading. People who make you feel wrong. People who can hurt you like nobody else can hurt you. Therapy is the place where you can make some plans and boundaries to support you in connecting, while protecting yourself

Inspired by Will's daily leaf (@_willforchange_ on Instagram) I kept an eye out for an excellent leaf while I was out for a walk today. I saw this little orange one, sort of half folded, like it was shy. It's a beautiful leaf, even if its beauty was a bit hidden at first.

A photo of a small mushroom in the woods with the text It starts with one small thought. One idea, one feeling. Then more. Maybe it starts getting overwhelming. A forest with many mushrooms with the text reading "That's the thing about pain. It demands to be felt." a quote attributed to John Green in the novel The Fault in Our Stars. Feelings demand to be felt. They'll keep coming up. They can affect your daily life. A closeup of a red mushroom with a white stem on the forest floor with the text That stuff will always be there. Getting perspective about it can help. A brown background with a photo of a white person with short brown and grey hair wearing glasses, an orange sweater, jeans, and white shoes. She's sitting on a bench in front of a rock wall, hands folded, leaning forward.
