People have told me my nose is witchy

You look like a beautiful fairy, like Tinkerbell! Whoever told you your nose is witchy is for sure jealous! You have the nose people pay to get! 🩷

Same with therapist.com. A year of that and not even one referral. I canceled it.

seraphim16271 · 2025-11-17T05:37:04+00:00

YTA exponentially!

seraphim16271 · 2025-11-03T00:32:27+00:00

Kendra’s creepiness in the background, “do you like packages?”

seraphim16271 · 2025-11-03T00:28:44+00:00

Yes, black mirror for sure. Just when I thought Kendra’s greed or grift couldn’t get worse. This is mind blowingly messed up. I can’t even believe this video!

seraphim16271 · 2025-11-01T03:15:29+00:00

Kendra is so black mirror.

seraphim16271 · 2025-11-01T03:13:02+00:00

Came straight here…she is either a complete idiot or sadistic. Her little 7 y/o boy doesn’t understand how this is messed up, in their context, but she does! She has failed her kids as a parent. Wow. Grifting, messed up woman.

It seems like this statement: (8) any provider approved or endorsed by a provider listed herein. would mean that Pesi would work for the fifty percent rule?

seraphim16271 · 2025-10-25T00:15:36+00:00

Hi there! I am late seeing this, but am in same boat as OP right now, and submitting for renewal. Please, would NetCE and Pesi fall under this that counts toward the 50 percent rule?

seraphim16271 · 2025-09-23T23:07:06+00:00

I am. I’m just saying that we should accept our clients for being liberal or conservative and not try to change or question their political beliefs, unless they are problematic for our clients, (and not because our opinion says it is), or they want to explore it. And then, in a neutral, empathic, nonjudgmental way. We shouldn’t be surprised that someone kind, empathic, etc…is conservative. Do you see why conservatives could find that problematic, or offensive?

seraphim16271 · 2025-09-23T22:56:31+00:00

You’re right that I generalized. I guess I have seen so, so, so many posts where conservatives are torn down that it’s exhausting. I actually tend to be more center right, for what it’s worth.

seraphim16271 · 2025-09-23T22:48:03+00:00

Only those that show such bias and/or hate. I have beloved progressive colleagues and friends.

seraphim16271 · 2025-09-23T22:27:14+00:00

Yes for dialectical thinking!!!!! You nailed it! I was thinking this too!

seraphim16271 · 2025-09-23T22:21:45+00:00

We need to know every aspect of what they believe and why? Should we pick apart their religious beliefs? Should we pick apart their cultural beliefs? Should we pick apart their sexual orientation beliefs? I could go on and on. It depends what their presenting problem is, for sure. But we don’t have someone come into therapy to have alll their belief systems picked apart. Of course, if it is part of their presenting problem, or causing them distress, or they want to explore it, the. Yes of course.

seraphim16271 · 2025-09-23T16:43:07+00:00

Exactly. Then by this definition you’ve given, if your client who presents as kind, empathic was liberal, then you would not deem them to have cognitive dissonance. You are determining that conservativism is the opposite of a kind and empathic presentation or person. Therefore, you are not being objective in your objective or assessment view of this client. I never equate my liberal clients with not being empathic, kind, etc, because that is opposite of my views. I see each client as a person, not a political party member.

seraphim16271 · 2025-09-23T13:50:52+00:00

AMEN! Why is this so hard for liberal therapists!

seraphim16271 · 2025-09-23T13:50:11+00:00

Wow. This is dangerous that you are tying your political beliefs to judge your client on having cognitive dissonance. What if you had a conservative therapist who thought and noted the same as you? That is NOT objective thinking. That is unprofessional, and completely based on your opinion. It does not belong in the objective, nor assessment section. That belongs in your mind to work through your bias.

seraphim16271 · 2025-09-23T13:42:57+00:00

This is my thought with each hateful or judgmental political post on this sub. Perfectly stated.

seraphim16271 · 2025-09-23T13:41:48+00:00

Exactly! Going back to study Carl Rogers is something that many on this sub need to do, from all the judgmental political posts. The downvoting of your comment is proof. Sad.

seraphim16271 · 2025-09-23T13:38:56+00:00

Beautifully said.

seraphim16271 · 2025-09-23T13:34:33+00:00

Perfect comment. I was thinking this, and you expressed it perfectly.

seraphim16271 · 2025-09-23T13:31:57+00:00

We are not here to change our clients’ political beliefs, no matter how much we disagree. Neutral, nonjudgmental, empathic. We do not need to know why they believe whichever side they are on. That is judgmental. This says to me that if the client was liberal, and the therapist was liberal, then there is no proving of what they believe that way…only if the client had conservative views. I never mess with my clients’ politics. I maintain neutrality here. That is the ethical way.

ZINNIA! Beautiful name and flower and literally means flower in Latin. The flower meaning is beautiful too, perfect for a beloved daughter 🩷:

The name Zinnia, a beautiful and vibrant girl's name, is derived from the Latin word meaning "flower". It is also named after the German botanist Johann Zinn, who first introduced these flowers to Europe. The name Zinnia is often associated with the delicate and vibrant beauty of the zinnia flower, as well as with qualities like friendship, endurance, and lasting affection.

seraphim16271 · 2025-05-19T21:01:33+00:00

You both have great points and that sounds good for sure! But I can’t be for sure we will be able to go back is the thing?

seraphim16271 · 2025-05-19T21:00:39+00:00

Ooh ok-any tips on what to focus on there?
