The Power of Affirmations!
Founder| innovator| Advocate|Psychotherapist @ West Island Therapy & Wellness Centre and Creator of Unscripted by Design Workshops and Master Class.
Words have power—especially the ones we say to ourselves. This is why we encourage you to use affirmations as part of your mental wellness journey. Affirmations are simple, positive statements that can help shift your mindset. Repeating these powerful words every day helps to reshape your inner dialogue and uplift your mental state. When you say, “I am enough,” or “I am capable of facing today,” you’re not just reciting empty words—you’re training your brain to believe in your own strength and worth. 💪✨ Self-talk matters. The way we speak to ourselves shapes how we feel, how we act, and ultimately, how we see ourselves. By using affirmations, we replace the negative thoughts that hold us back with the positivity that moves us forward. Start today. Find an affirmation that speaks to you, repeat it often, and watch how it transforms the way you feel. 🌿 💬 What’s your favorite affirmation? Share it in the comments below—we’d love to hear it! 💛 #Affirmations #SelfTalk #WordsHavePower #MentalHealthMatters #PositiveMindset #WestIslandTherapy #DailyAffirmations #SelfCare

Caregiving!
Founder| innovator| Advocate|Psychotherapist @ West Island Therapy & Wellness Centre and Creator of Unscripted by Design Workshops and Master Class.
Grateful for the opportunity to share the stage with my younger sister, Stephanie Brookman, as we presented to a wonderful group at Bristol Myers Squibb on one of the most significant yet challenging roles we've both experienced—caregiving. As psychotherapists and caregivers for over a decade, we discussed how mindfulness and self-compassion are vital tools in supporting both the caregivers and the ones they care for. It's a privilege to be able to combine our personal experiences and professional expertise to help others navigate this journey. #Caregiving #Mindfulness #SelfCompassion #MentalHealth #SiblingsInCaregiving

In today’s fast-paced world, finding the right balance between work and family time can be challenging. But it’s essential to set boundaries that protect both your personal life and your well-being. 🌟 Boundaries Matter: Make sure your work doesn’t spill over into your family time. Set clear limits and stick to them—your loved ones will thank you, and you’ll feel more present in the moments that matter. 🌟 Carve Out Self-Care Time: Whether it’s a peaceful walk, lunch with a friend, or unwinding with your favorite Netflix show, self-care is crucial. Don’t let it slip to the bottom of your priority list. Schedule it in just like any other important appointment. 🌟 Need Help? We’re Here for You: If you’re struggling to maintain balance or find time for yourself, reaching out to a therapist can make all the difference. You deserve support and guidance to navigate life’s demands. Prioritize yourself, because you’re worth it! #WorkLifeBalance #SelfCare #BoundariesMatter #MentalHealth #Wellness #TherapySupport #TakeCareOfYou #BalanceAndBoundaries #WestIslandTherapy
