I have two very vivid memories from graduate school that often come up when I’m struggling with parts of my job as a therapist. This was a time in my life when I was balancing everything that I was learning (while having undiagnosed ADHD, so for more information about that experience, go to this blog) and how I could actually apply it to the populations I wanted to work with once I could see clients.

The Importance of Finding Balance Between Ourselves and Others // La importancia de encontrar el equilibrio entre nosotros mismos y los demás
All of us are considerate of ourselves and considerate of others in what we say and do. Where we fall on how considerate (or not) of self and others shapes our values and informs our actions. Problems can come up when there is a misalignment or imbalance on these two scales and an adjustment may be needed.
