Snapshots
Let me set the scene… It’s 4am in the morning. You can’t sleep. You feel on edge. You’re worried about everything and nothing specific. You recognize you’re starting to spiral…. what did my therapist tell me to do?!?
When you are experiencing worry or anxiety symptoms it is darn difficult to think clearly. And besides, no one has perfect memory. With all that we cover, that therapy hour passes pretty quickly. Sometimes a small reminder helps you process through a better way of managing.
The below snapshot collection are the three categories of interventions I regularly use in therapy. It is not meant to be an all-inclusive database - in fact, I aim to keep it short and sweet. It’s a general resource for my clients when they can’t touch base - because I am not up at 4am in the morning - or just need a bit of a reminder.

Manage your body
We want to go to solving the problem, but our first step is always to manage our body. You are not going to think clearly or come up to the solutions to world hunger, if you are having a panic attack.
Manage your mind.
Now that you’re grounded in your body. Let’s move to your mind.
