A Note About Sponsored Content

Welcome new followers! There have been quite a few of you lately so I thought it would be good to share a bit about how I share sponsored content on this blog. It is my goal to be as transparent as possible. I created this website to provide free, accessible information and resources about mental health. It started as a way to help other therapists navigate telehealth with children and grew into so much more!

Happy Monday, I just pre-emptively hit "send" on an email before I was done typing, so someone just got a reply from me that says only, "Good morning, I think"

Armani had another crash during the night so it’s good he was at the vet. They’re continuing to monitor him today to make sure he’s actually stable and figure out what he needs for his treatment plan. The vet tech says the cone is for the staff’s protection because he is feeling well enough to live up to his β€œspicy” reputation!

Ugh. We are on several days in a row of an air quality alert which means I’ve got a wicked headache and cough. I feel bad whining though because the reason the air quality is bad here, is because of the Canadian wildfires and at least I don’t have to evacuate. But I’m going to hold space for my discomfort AND for Canada πŸ’œπŸ’œ

I got a letter in the mail from "Best in Medicine" saying I was voted the Top Psychologist in South Dakota, and in order to activate my listing on their site I have to join a call.... They're going to try to sell me something, aren't they?

I've seen several therapists commenting on the behavior of TikTok's current main character. I'm not going to comment on the videos but I would like to express a gentle reminder that unless someone is your client, it's not appropriate to speculate about their diagnosis. And it's never appropriate to speculate about someone's diagnosis on social media.

A psychologist in one of the states I'm licensed in got disciplined by the board for this. So just. Please stop.

One of the publications I review therapy platforms for needs testers for pillows for people with jaw pain, and that's something I have experienced, so now I get a free pillow plus $200 and all I have to do is tell them how I liked it. SCORE
