And to think I used to be scared of open water. Just a quick reminder that we can tolerate distress and sometimes even grow to love the things that make us uncomfortable. And don't worry; a life jacket was involved 😂 #mentalhealth #pugetsound #PNW #anxiety

This pile of sticks at our dog park reminded me of the #DBT skill ACCEPTS, and specifically C = Contribution. Someone contributed to our woofer community in such a tangible way. Contribution doesn't have to be big, but it can have a big impact. #therapy #mentalhealth #dogsky #dogs

[we refuse ritual shrinking] The silence breaks open around us. The quiet no longer belongs to fear. We call our voices back home— the feral ones buried deep in the throat the ones discipline tried to starve the ones the world demanded we soften. Not tonight; not ever. A #Solseed Joint #seedling

Doing a final check for plosives on the #audiobook for Picky and wondering why I wrote "Paula perched on the papered table." In my next novel, everyone will be named Fiona 😂 So excited to share this work with you all <3 #booksky #readersky #writersky www.goodreads.com/book/show/24...

Is the world ready for a novel with a character who has #POCD (pedophilia #OCD)? Also, will I get kicked off this platform for posting about this topic? I'd love to shed light on this topic. Opinions, please! #booksky #readersky #writersky #mentalhealth

The most real thing in #TheCloser is how upset the team is with their fancy new building in Season 6 and all the shenanigans about setting up their cubicles. Investigate a murder? Sure... right after we figure out the remote to our new projector. #tv

My teenage daughter and I have a running gag wherein I take her phone while she's waking up (I have her permission for this) and we pretend that one of our #dogs is taking selfies. It helps motivate her to get out of bed, and I get some gems like this! #dogsky #parenting

Would I let someone with POCD near my kids? This is a question I get as a clinical psychologist who specializes in OCD. Spoiler alert: of course I would! Pedophilia OCD is a completely different animal than Pedophilia. #ocd #mentalhealth #pocd #pedophilia youtube.com/shorts/BMrtX...
