Today, I had to make a choice to cancel a client session, in order to attend to emotional and nervous system needs of my own. This is always hard for me to do, as I often feel guilty for inconveniencing my dear clients. However, I've learned through a LOT of trial and error that my self-care is essential in order to be of best service to my clients. Let's normalize therapists taking care of ourselves, so we can be of service to both ourselves and our amazing clients.
