For LGBTQIA+ folks, self-validation is more than emotional work, it’s reclaiming truth after years of being told to shrink, mask, or justify their existence.
DBT offers language that undoes shame and honors identity.

So many LGBTQIA+ clients have internalized years of invalidation — from families, systems, or even themselves.
DBT reminds us: You don’t have to agree with every emotion to validate it.

Internalized oppression is when we absorb society's negative messages and turn them against ourselves 💔
But here's the truth: these aren't YOUR thoughts— Healing begins with validation.

The Middle Path helps parents and teens move from “either/or” to “both/and.” It’s not about being perfectly balanced — it’s about staying open and curious.

“I know I’m safe… but I don’t feel safe.”
If this sounds familiar, you’re not broken — you’re simply carrying a nervous system wired for survival, not relaxation.

Healing trauma isn’t just talking it out — it’s feeling safe in your body again.
At Turn The Mind, we believe in bottom-up regulation: tools that help your body signal to your brain, I’m okay now.

DBT skills only work if you practice them — just like building a muscle. 💪
Every time you use a skill — even once — you’re teaching your brain a new way to respond.
That’s how change happens. 🌱

People don’t come to DBT just to “learn skills.” They come to feel understood.
To stop feeling like emotions are running their life.
To finally find peace within the chaos.

The spiraling thought trap often begins with one negative thought that quickly leads to another — creating a cycle of worry, fear, or self-doubt. CBT helps break the cycle.

Lately, some headlines have suggested that taking Tylenol during pregnancy “causes autism.” Understandably, misinformation has caused concern for many of us. At Turn the Mind, we celebrate and support our autistic clients. The stigma is the problem, not Tylenol.

In DBT, mindfulness teaches us to slow down and notice what’s happening inside without judging it, avoidance,or reacting right away. When we pause and get still, we can finally hear what’s real: our thoughts, our emotions, and our needs.

We break down the 3 hidden patterns that keep us stuck in emotional extremes:
1) Overfunctioning (“I’ve got this”) ↔ Collapse (“I can’t do anything”)
2) Emotional flooding ↔ Self-criticism for feeling
3) Living in chronic crisis ↔ Emotional avoidance and denial
