This is a great article to showing some common misconceptions, thoughts and ideas that are often not discussed when choosing or working with a therapist. I believe this is helpful for everyone, especially for those who are hesitant to reach out for support. As a practitioner, this is help to reflect some clients apprehension and approach to working with folks. It is important to remind practitioners of these concepts as well when reaching out for support.

Take a Break
The unpredictability of funds can influence and impact programs, agencies, services, providers, supplies, HUMANS and everything in between. Unfortunately for me, funding has been pulled and I find myself an unemployed service provider. I am hoping this time off will provide me with the relaxation that seems to escape during working life. Self Care will be the focus as I proceed with the much dreaded job hunt. My goal is to start a new position with healthy boundaries and self care practices in place that will support my longevity in the field. What do you do for self care and burnout prevention?
