Aranda Therapy @arandatherapy.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Withdrawal symptoms from psychotropic medication is a truly scary experience. Sometimes clients don't realize the dangers of discontinuing medication and sometimes disruption in insurance or financial cost caused them to discontinue. More often than not it leads to crisis intervention. 000
Aranda Therapy @arandatherapy.bsky.social · 12/09/2026“Shouldn’t you be over it by now?” Trauma doesn’t follow a timeline. Time passing isn’t the same as healing. Safety, support, resources, and the opportunity to process what happened all matter. There is no universal deadline for healing. Worth a read. ❤️ 000

Aranda Therapy @arandatherapy.bsky.social · 08/09/2026“You’ve changed.” Many clients hear this from others after being in therapy. Sometimes becoming healthier means becoming unfamiliar to people who were comfortable with the old version of you. Sometimes your transformation makes others want to change too. 🦋 000
Aranda Therapy @arandatherapy.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Therapist brain: Don’t say it. It’s such a cliché. Find another way to phrase it. Also therapist brain: But I actually need to know how that makes you feel. 🐸🤦♀️ 000

Aranda Therapy @arandatherapy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Interesting read on what may predict long-term relationship success: not chemistry, but temperance- the ability to pause between feeling an impulse and acting on it. Essentially: feel the reaction, but choose the response. Curious what others think about this. 000
Reposted by Aranda TherapyPsychology Today @psychologytoday.com · 27/08/2026Emotional regulation is generally categorized as a "soft skill," something nice to have alongside the "real work." But it is often the key difference between chaos, violence, and calamity, and thriving, health, and connection, writes @drjasonnlinder www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/mind...psychologytoday.comWhy Emotional Regulation Is Harm PreventionWe often treat emotional regulation as a soft skill. But what if learning to tolerate difficult feelings is the key to preventing aggression, addiction, suicide, and even violence? 052
