HELP! MY THERAPIST IS GOING ON VACATION

 Don't fotget that your therapist has a life and family outside of their practice. Therapists need to take regular vacations for self care, just like anyone in the community. As a therapist myself, I find that supporting my clients through their most challenging times is incredibly rewarding. But at the same time, listening and supporting through crises or difficulties can lead to burnout.

Your best therapist will be the person that is awake, sharp, and listens to truly understand your pain and your strengths. Keep in mind over this holiday season or during any part of the year. Think about having a well rested and balanced therapist as the best option for your quality care. 

Wish your therapist happy holidays or a good vacation. If you have an emergency while your therapist is gone, please call 911. Your therpist should review these "just in case" situations prior to their trip.
