What can support me on my therapy journey?

Therapy can be both deeply rewarding and challenging at times, as it often involves working though painful or unprocessed material. It can be helpful to take a quiet moment before and after each session to feel into what you need. If you already have self-care practices that work for you, lean into those. Quality sleep, a supportive diet, and regular gentle exercise go a long way. Engaging in activities that feel meaningful, connecting, and life-affirming can be a great resource. Some people find journaling to be a useful way of processing feelings between sessions. If you are feeling daunted, I encourage you to take this to therapy, and to bring some gentleness and curiosity on board.
