Gender identity exploration isn’t a trend — it’s real. Many teens who question their gender are simply looking for space, safety, and acceptance while they figure out who they are. #GenderAffirmingCare #TransYouth #SupportDontStigmatize #LGBTQSupport #YouAreValid #TransRights#TurnTheMind

For PTSD: treatments often focus on processing a specific event. For C-PTSD: often first comes stabilization — learning safety, boundaries & emotional regulation — before diving in. #MentalHealthTreatment#PTSDHealing #CPTSDRecovery#TurnTheMind

This line hits hard because many folks with PTSD feel exactly this — reliving an event long after it’s over. It’s okay to acknowledge this. It’s okay to reach out. #Trauma #PTSDRecovery #MentalHealthMatters #SurvivorStories #TherapyIsCool #BreakTheStigma#TherapyWorks#TurnTheMind

Explore how Post‑Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Complex Post‑Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD) can look similar — and how they differ. Knowledge is power. You’re not alone, and help is possible. #PTSD #CPTSD #TraumaRecovery #MentalHealthAwareness #HealingJourney#TraumaTherapy#TurnTheMind

EMDR isn’t magic. It’s neuroscience. 🧠 In an EMDR session, the parts of the brain that handle fear, memory, and regulation start working together again — instead of staying stuck in survival mode. #TraumaScience #EMDRWorks #BrainBasedTherapy #EvidenceBasedTherapy #MentalHealthFacts #TurnTheMind

Today, we remember the transgender and gender-diverse people whose lives were taken by violence, discrimination, and hate. This day is a call for reflection and a commitment to creating a world where trans and non-binary people can live safely, openly, and with dignity.

“What if your memories stopped hurting?” 🌿 EMDR doesn’t erase your past. EMDR changes how your brain holds it. What once felt raw and overwhelming can shift into something neutral, no longer pulling you back. #TraumaHealing #EMDRExplained #MentalHealthMatters #EMDRtherapy #TraumaTherapy #EMDR

It’s not magic—it’s neuroscience. EMDR helps calm your amygdala (your brain’s alarm system) and synchronizes brain waves—helping stuck memories finally move into the past where they belong. #TraumaHealing #EMDRExplained #MentalHealthMatters #ptsd #EMDR #Neuroplasticity #BrainHealing

This is the panic loop. CBT teaches you to recognize this pattern and interrupt it before it spirals. You don't have to fight every sensation. You can learn to respond differently. Learn more or connect with us at turnthemind.com for help. #PanicAttacks #AnxietyRelief #CBT#TurnTheMind

Transgender Awareness isn’t just about visibility — it’s about honoring authenticity. 💙💗🤍 Every person deserves to live in alignment with who they are — without fear, shame, or apology. #TransgenderAwarenessWeek #TransJoy #TransVisibility #AuthenticityIsPower #GenderAffirmingCare #LGBTQIA

Panic attacks feel out of control, but they follow a pattern — and CBT teaches you how to interrupt it. #PanicAttackHelp#AnxietyReliefTips#TherapyTools #CBTSkills#MentalHealthEducation#TurnTheMind#YouAreNotAlone

The statements on the right aren't wishful thinking — they're grounded in reality. With practice, they can help rewire how your brain responds to anxiety. Ready to break free from panic? We can help. 🔗Link in Bio #PanicDisorder#CBTTherapy#AnxietyTips#CBT #MentalHealthAwareness#TurnTheMind

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. #DBT#TherapyThatWorks#QueerTherapy#HealingJourney#SelfValidationMatters#TurntheMind

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. #DBTskills #SelfValidation #LGBTQIAHealing #TherapistTools #QueerAffirmingTherapy #InclusiveTherapy #TurnTheMind

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. #LGBTQIA #QueerTherapy #TransAffirming #InternalizedOppression #MentalHealthMatters #QueerHealing  #Turnthemind

The Middle Path is one of DBT’s most practical skills for families. It transforms conflict into communication. When we meet in the middle, understanding and connection can begin. #DBTforParents#MindfulParenting#FamilyTherapy #TeenMentalHealth #DBTskills #GrowthMindset #turnthemind

When parents and teens learn to step out of the tug-of-war and into understanding, communication grows, conflict softens, and connection deepens. 🌿 #DBT#MindfulParenting #ParentTeenRelationships #FamilyTherapy #ParentingTeens #ParentingJourney #GrowthMindset #DBTforParents#turnthemind

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.  #DBT #ParentingTeens #TurnTheMind#ParentingTeens#FamilyWellness#MindfulParenting#FamilyTherapySupport#MentalHealthMatters#TeenSupport

“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. Read more in our latest blog as we explore Polyvagal Theory. #trauma #nervoussystem #polyvagaltheory #healingjourney #YouAreNotBroken

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. #healing #traumarecovery #bodymindconnection #therapy #youarenotalone #therapyinnewjersey#breathe

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. 🌱 #DBTSkills #DBTTherapy #EmotionalRegulation #Mindfulness #TherapyThatWorks #HealingJourney

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. #DBT #HealingJourney #EmotionalRegulation #DBTSkills #MindfulnessPractice #TherapyThatWorks #MentalHealthMatters #Turnthemind

DBT helps you find balance—accepting yourself and making change. You’ll learn skills for mindfulness, managing emotions, handling stress, and improving relationships. Which one do you need most right now? 💭 #DBT #Therapy

Feeling anxious? You’re not alone 💭 ✨ Small shifts in thinking can lead to big changes in how you feel. You deserve peace — one thought at a time. 💚 #CBT #AnxietyRelief #MentalHealthAwareness #TherapyWorks #CognitiveBehavioralTherapy #AnxietySupport #MentalHealthMatters #Turnthemind

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. #CBT #CognitiveBehavioralTherapy #AnxietyTherapy #MentalHealthAwareness #ThoughtPatterns #Turnthemind

Anxiety doesn’t have to control your life. The earlier you begin, the faster you can interrupt unhelpful thought patterns and build healthier coping strategies. #CBT #CognitiveBehavioralTherapy #AnxietyRelief #AnxietyTherapy #turnthemind

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. #tylenol #autism #neurodivergence

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. #DBT #Mindfulness #EmotionRegulation #DBTSkills #TurnTheMind

✨ NEW BLOG POST ✨ 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 #DBT #middlepath

Trauma manifests differently for everyone, and so should healing. We offer two methods of treatment: EMDR – Helps reduce the emotional weight of traumatic experiences. Somatic Experiencing – Helps you feel safe in your body #traumatherapy #emdr #somaticexperiencing #turnthemind #therapysky
