Looking for a therapist
7 Cups Online Therapy / by Polahn

...See more Hello 7Cups community! 🙃👋 I tried to find a therapist on the app but so far, I didn't get a good match after trying three of them. I have been advised to put an announcement directly in the forums to increase the odds to find a professional who could fit my therapeutic needs. So here it is! I am going to list what type of approaches I found work best for me, discarding the reasons why I am seeking therapy, as I do not want to share my personal struggles publicly. So, I am looking for a therapist who is trained in one or many of these areas: - NVC (No Violent Communication) - Empathetic / validating listening, meeting the person where it is at. No provocation (it really doesn't work for me, I do however crave for invitations to look at different perspectives and outlooks that would help me perceive my issues from brighter angles) - CBT. I actually never tried it but would like to - Polyvagal Theory - Giftedness in adult - Trauma healing or trauma informed, especially childhood trauma - Willingness to learn and 'grow' with its client I would like to emphasize that I am fairly 'mental health / therapy savvy' and have a rather wide area of knowledge in that field (I consume a lot of self-help and mental health educational contents). I am not starting from '0' but definitely need support to go through hard periods. To give the 'tone' of the type of therapy I am looking for, here is one therapist I find very smoothing and inspired by: 'jeanpsychologist' on Inst A Gram. Thank you

...See more Hello everyone, so, something that has bothered me for a while... How are we supposed to 'make friends' here if we can't contact each others privately? Or is there a way to do it? Thank you in advance for those you know the magical formula 😅...
