Therapists Who Truly Get You

“Not sure how to describe it, but I finally learned who I am. Through many sessions, I was able to get a real glimpse of my self-destructive patterns, and figure out steps to achieve what I want in life. I understood what was holding me back, and what I did to self-sabotage. The biggest takeaways were two: how to effectively confront people about what it is that is bothering me, and being able to put myself first without feeling guilty about it.”

Life is a vast web of connections, and not every meaningful encounter happens right away. You might not have met all the people who will change your life yet—those who will help you grow, challenge your beliefs, or even simply understand you in ways you never expected. Be patient with the unfolding. Trust that every relationship, whether fleeting or lasting, is part of your journey. You’re still in the process of discovering the people who will shape the next chapter of who you are becoming. Keep your heart open, and allow life to surprise you with the connections you need.

Isn’t it easy to get caught up in the pressure of ‘what’s next’? We often forget that it’s the little things we’re creating in the present that shape us. Whether it’s a hobby, a relationship, or even how we spend our days, every moment is building something.💫

What’s one thing you’re creating right now, even if it feels small? Drop a comment and let’s share where we’re at in the process. 🌱

“I still struggle with perfectionism.“

Even though I work with clients on letting go of unrealistic standards, I have to remind myself to
let go…often. I find that my care for others often affects my perfectionistic tendencies, making it
hard to implement boundaries, say “no” and not take on more than I chew. The guilt is real and the pressure to be flawless can be overwhelming, and I’m constantly reminding myself that it’s okay to be imperfect.

“I still have bouts of existential dread and wonder what I’m doing with my life.“

Even with how much I love my career, hobbies, and day to day activities, I still find myself questioning my purpose. Some days, the weight of uncertainty feels heavy, and I wonder if I’m on the right path, just like anyone else.

“Some days my chronic pain makes it hard to feel optimistic about life.“

There are days when my pain is very loud, making it hard to be present. On those days, staying hopeful feels like a challenge.

“I feel a deep existential loneliness, even though I have a husband, family, colleagues, and many great friends.“

Sometimes, despite being surrounded by love and support, I still feel like I’m walking this journey alone. It’s not about a lack of connection with others—it’s that nagging sense that no one can fully understand the depth of our inner worlds. That feeling of being alone with our thoughts and fears is something we all face in our own way.

Ever feel like you’re mastering the art of not getting things done? Here’s the blueprint for never starting (or finishing) your goals. Procrastination, perfected. 🌀💡 It’s like a hamster wheel of overwhelm: you set yourself up for failure by making things harder than they need to be. But hey, at least you look busy, right? 😅

If you’re caught in this loop, it’s time for a reset—start small, prioritize, and let go of perfection. Your goals will still be there tomorrow. Just maybe with a little less chaos.

Tips for a less chaotic inner world:

🌀 Breathe like it matters—because it does. Slow inhales, even slower exhales.

🤯 Stop arguing with reality—resistance fuels stress; acceptance makes space for
change.

🚶‍♀️Move, even a little—your body holds the tension your mind creates.

👀 Look around—literally. Expanding your gaze signals safety to your brain.

🤝 Find connection—even a quick chat or a shared laugh resets your nervous system.

Small shifts, big impact.

What’s your go-to nervous system reset?

Ever had someone twist your words or actions to make you the villain in their story?

Maybe you set a boundary, had a tough conversation, or simply didn’t act the way they
wanted—and suddenly, you’re the bad guy. It’s easy for people to shift blame to avoid looking at their own behavior.

But remember: how they see you isn’t who you are.

Here are a few reminders if you find yourself in this situation:

1⃣ Their perception is not your identity. You exist beyond someone else’s narrative.

2⃣ People rewrite stories to avoid accountability—don’t carry their projections.

3⃣ You don’t have to prove your goodness. Let your actions speak over time.

4⃣ Distance yourself from the need to be understood—some people only see what serves them.

5⃣ Not everyone will see the full picture, and that’s okay. Live in a way that feels true to you.

6⃣ You are not responsible for fixing someone’s version of you in their mind.

🌪 How the Smallest Things Trigger an Existential Crisis

It starts with something tiny: forgetting your charger, burning your toast, or realizing you’ve been wearing mismatched socks all day. And before you know it, you’re questioning everything:

🔹 Did I build my whole life around convenience?
🔹 Why can’t I function without caffeine?
🔹 Do I even know who I am if I can’t remember what I had for lunch yesterday?

It’s wild how the tiniest hiccups can crack open a window to life’s biggest questions. Sometimes it’s not about fixing the small thing—it’s about sitting with the uncomfortable what ifs it stirs up.

🎯 How to Break Free from Confirmation Bias

1⃣ Spot the Bias
Notice how your brain loves to find “evidence” for what you already believe. Feeling unlovable? Suddenly every glance or text left on read feels like proof.

2⃣ Question the Narrative
Ask yourself: Is this belief the only truth? Could there be other explanations? We’re meaning-makers, not just passive observers.

3⃣ Embrace Choice
You can’t always control what happens, but you can choose how to interpret it. What meaning serves your growth instead of holding you back?

4⃣ Expand Your View
Step back. What are you not noticing because of this belief? Shifting perspective can be the key to rewriting your narrative.

🌀 Takeaway: You don’t have to believe everything you think. Every moment is a chance to choose a new lens.

It’s 6 AM, I’m in an Uber on the way to the airport, and in a moment of poor judgment (or sleep deprivation), I let it slip that I’m a therapist. Now I know their life story, their childhood trauma, and the name of their ex they ‘probably shouldn’t have left.’ Meanwhile, I’m just trying to make it to my gate before boarding starts. 🫠✈ #TherapistProblems

Therapy is often misunderstood, especially when we view it through limited lenses.

- Therapy isn’t just about rehashing the past. It’s about understanding the choices you’re making now and how they shape your future.

- It’s not about finding quick fixes or easy answers. Therapy helps you confront the complexities of life and make meaning from it.

- Seeking therapy isn’t a sign of failure—it’s an act of courage. It’s choosing to face the uncertainties of existence and take responsibility for your growth.

Therapy is about exploring your meaning, facing your freedom, and coming to terms with your choices. It’s about stepping into your authentic self and embracing life’s uncertainties. Seeking therapy is not about admitting failure. It’s an act of courage in confronting your existential dilemmas and taking responsibility for your path forward. Therapy is a space to embrace the
unknown and explore what truly matters to you.

Loneliness doesn’t always look like being alone. Sometimes it’s the ache of feeling unseen, even when you’re with others. 🌊

Not everyone can think or feel as deeply as you do. It’s not about better or worse; it’s about capacity and self-awareness. People can only connect at the depth they’ve explored within themselves—and for some, that depth barely scratches the surface.

This can feel isolating, especially if you’re someone who craves real connection. But it’s not a reflection of your worth. It’s a reminder to seek relationships that can meet you in the depths—and to have compassion for those who can’t.

💡 If this resonates, take a moment to ask yourself: where in your life are you craving deeper
connection?

Or, share in the comments: what helps you feel truly seen?

Relationships don’t just happen—they’re shaped by the relationship we have with ourselves. How we treat ourselves sets the tone for how we allow others to treat us, and the love we think we deserve often becomes the love we accept.

Healing relational patterns starts within. It’s about addressing old wounds, building self-esteem, and learning to show up authentically—for yourself and those you care about.

At Authentically Living Psych we specialize in helping clients navigate the complexities of relationships, whether it’s with a partner, family member, friend, or even yourself. If you’re ready to explore what’s holding you back from deeper connections and greater self-confidence, we’re here to support you.

DM me the word “RELATIONSHIP” if you’d like to learn more about our services.
