Take a Seat

?? Happy World Behavior Analysis Day! ?? Today, we celebrate the incredible work of Behavior Analysts, BCBAs, RBTs, and ABA professionals who dedicate their lives to helping individuals thrive through the power of behavior science! A special shoutout to all the BCBAs and ABA professionals I’ve worked with—your dedication and impact do not go unnoticed! ???? And of course, happy birthday to B.F. Skinner—the pioneer of behavior analysis, whose work laid the foundation for everything we do today. ????

As therapists, our work is more than a profession—it's a calling. Meraki, a beautiful Greek word, means to do something with soul, creativity, and love. It perfectly encapsulates the heart of our practice. Every session, every interaction, and every moment we spend with our clients is an opportunity to infuse our work with passion and dedication. Let's continue to bring meraki into our therapy practices, ensuring our clients feel truly seen, heard, and supported. #therapy #meraki #therapists

In therapy, creating a nurturing environment is key to growth and healing. Here are 5 essential elements every therapeutic journey should include: You Feel Safe and Listened To: A strong therapeutic alliance is built on trust and safety, where clients feel genuinely heard. You Don't Feel Judged: An accepting, non-judgmental space allows for true self-exploration. You're Not Afraid to Open Up: When fear is removed, authenticity and vulnerability can thrive. You Feel Free to Express Your Emotions: Emotional freedom is crucial for processing and healing. Inner Work Continues After the Session: Therapy plants the seeds of growth, but the real transformation happens as clients integrate insights into their daily lives. What else would you add?

Therapists are human too. We hold space, but we also need it. We help others heal, but we also need rest. Strength and softness can exist together. Let’s normalise that.

In Therapy it's normal to . . . Going to therapy for the first time you may feel a range of emotions It's not always as straight forward as knowing what you want to say To be able to open up You may feel anxious or unsure This is perfectly normal and not always for your first session Don't let these feelings put you off investing in yourself

To all the incredible mental health professionals out there, Today we want to remind you to take a seat, breathe, and reconnect with your purpose. Your work brings light to so many lives, but don't forget to nurture your own. Let’s embrace a fresh start to the week—one of hope, reflection, and self-care.

Being a therapist doesn’t mean being invincible. You are allowed to rest, to seek support, to take care of yourself—not just for your clients, but for you. Because before you are a therapist, you are human.

A therapist’s care doesn’t end when the sessions do. We think about our clients, we hope they are healing, growing, and thriving. We hope they feel safe. We hope they know we still root for them, even from afar. ??
