Transforming Challenges into Growth: Building Self-Help Strategies, Mental Resilience, and Self-Compassion with Therapist Anna Aslanian
Description
Do you want to explore how to shift your perspective during challenges and recognize hidden opportunities? Anna Aslanian, a licensed marriage and family therapist, shares her journey into psychology with a focus on couples therapy and trauma. We discuss Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), how it helps identify what is truly important, and taking steps towards meaningful change. We also cover EMDR and how it targets the subconscious through bilateral stimulation to process trauma, big or small. Anna shares self-help strategies such as noticing 'glimmers', journaling, and practicing self-acceptance and self-compassion. We delve into regulating the nervous system using the polyvagal framework and the importance of kindness and second chances. She also shares practical advice for finding the right therapist and building effective coping strategies for mental well-being.
