Your Recovery Might Feel Shaky Right Now

If this unprecedented moment is leaving you feeling stressed and vulnerable in an unprecedented fashion, you are so human.

If this unprecedented moment is leaving you feeling less equipped to manage urges that you are usually able to ride out with relative ease, you are so human.

If this unprecedented moment is making you question your efforts for recovery, you are so human.

If this unprecedented moment is resulting in a reemergence of behaviors that have long since been extinguished, you are so human.

Most all of us need comfort and connection and humanity right now.

At the same time, we are being asked to practice social distancing and are using virtual connection, instead. Harder than hard.

So stay connected if you can.
Stay connected to your team.
Utilize the daily Weekly Support hours with the crew tagged here.
Have weekday breakfast with me.
Tune in to other sources of support that are available on social media.

It’s not the same, and we’re glad to be with you.

As a practitioner, working virtually does not feel the same as sitting in a room with another person. I am fortunate to feel deeply connected to all of my clients, so know that we can withstand this moment, however temporary, and come together on the other side while still having made progress.

And progress is going to look different. And the way I might support a client is going to look differently than it would have, were we not contending with a global pandemic.

This is the reality of now. Thank you for being human with me.

I see you.
I care about you.
I believe in you.

Love,
a
