Can I talk about politics in therapy?

What can you expect from your therapist when discussing politics? Therapists enter the counseling room with a goal of complete acceptance of who you are as the client. Your therapist will likely validate your feelings as they do on any topic you bring to counseling. However, expect your therapist to refrain from getting into a discussion or debate about candidates or policy. Instead, your therapist will get curious about what emotions come up for you when you discuss or read about politics and how these emotions impact your daily life.

What I'm Reading Now - The Happiness Trap

ACT challenges the common belief that happiness is the norm and that something is wrong with us if we are not happy.

Studies have shown that individuals who received greater support after psychedelic therapy had greater positive behavioral changes. 


Providing a safe space for Ketamine integration aligns with Ignite’s whole-hearted approach to counseling. As clinicians, we are dedicated to meeting our clients where they are, and providing them with a unique and compassionate experience.

Five Reminders When Coping with Grief

Grief is an unavoidable part of life. When we experience loss of any kind - whether it be the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or moving through different phases of life - grief will inevitably show up in one way or another.

While we all experience our grief differently, it can often feel overwhelming, isolating, and make it difficult to participate in daily life. When you are grieving, it is important to be gentle with yourself as you process the loss and adjust to a new way of being.
