People who struggle to identify feelings or communicate about emotions often report feeling “fine” or “ok,” even when they most definitely do not feel ok. This simple worksheet, inspired by a prompt tucked into my Ideas for Art Prompts for Expressive Therapy, is designed to empower individuals to dig a little deeper behind their “ok” and visually explore how lots of different feelings and personal truths can be valid at the same time.

We all know how elusive sleep can be, but quality sleep is essential for physical and mental health. When sleep feels hard to come by, “sleep hygiene” is the go-to remedy. While some sleep and insomnia-related issues need specific treatments including medication or longer-term psychotherapy, psycho-education about sleep hygiene is the first response for both medical and mental health providers.

Anger, like no other emotion, has the power to move us towards action. That can be a powerful thing, but when we act impulsively or without informing ourselves, we can actually undermine the work of activists. If you are feeling angry today, give your body permission to move in anger, but pause to reflect on where you are in the process, appropriate next steps, and how you can connect with activists already doing the work.

For myself and many of the individuals I have worked with, these are helpful responses to when intrusive thoughts begin to make their way in: Notice these thoughts without judgment Engage the thoughts in a meaningful way: through writing, moving, visualizing, or crafting language for them as to have a conversation about it Then, create a gentle body shift – like getting up to water plants or making a cup of tea.

When someone is experiencing urges to self-harm, it can be really difficult to think clearly. Psychological pain can cause executive function (that is, the set of complex brain processes that help us with goal-directed decision-making) to go offline. It can be helpful to have a plan in place for when these times come. That’s why I created this flowchart (aka a decision tree). This resource is not meant to be an endpoint or a one-size-fits-all; it’s a starting point. Decision Tree, Decision Making, Working In Mental Health, Flowchart, Self Harm

My visually formatted SUD scale is a helpful way to communicate internal feelings because it gives both sides a starting point for understanding. Scales like the SUDS help providers and patients speak the same language when they talk about internal experiences. People who are in therapy can use these scales to see how things are going. They can also use them to help them understand and identify their own experiences. Feelings Chart, Exposure Therapy, Emdr Therapy, Communication Problems

Don’t judge how your therapy is going by how you feel after a session. Good therapy is hard. In the world of education, it’s called “optimal frustration”- brains learn best when we are stressed and confused, but just to the right degree. Therapy is similar: a therapist’s job is to stir not just thoughts and emotions, but our unconscious self, allowing us to begin to offer a listening ear to the parts of ourselves we’ve learned to silence.

This doodle is a version of a sketch that popped up in my margin notes as I read the book Naming the Shadows (1994). In that book, authors Roth and Batson describe how, through good trauma therapy, past trauma is able to take up less space within one’s self, and the impact of trauma is minimized. As this happens, more energy and internal resources are available. Read more through the link!

Sometimes, even if you really like your therapist, it can be really difficult to talk in therapy. Words spoken in therapy can feel like they really matter. Compared to most relationships where words are often just filler, the same thing that makes therapy potentially really healing can also make speaking really hard- especially if you are introverted or not a particularly talkative person in the first place. However, silence actually has the capacity to develop deeper relationships. My Stomach Hurts, Talk Therapy, Poetry Art, Something About You, Ways To Communicate
