How can I cope with my feelings after therapy?

I've just come back from therapy and I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed. What should I do?

It's completely normal to feel overwhelmed after a therapy session. Take some time to process your feelings. Would you like to talk about what specifically is bothering you?

I talked about some really tough issues today, and now I feel anxious.

That anxiety is a common response. Try grounding techniques, like deep breathing or focusing on your surroundings. Would you like some specific exercises?

Yes, please! I need something to help me calm down.

Sure! One effective technique is the 5-4-3-2-1 method: identify 5 things you can see, 4 things you can touch, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell, and 1 thing you can taste. Want to try it together?

That sounds helpful! I'll give it a try. Thank you!

You're welcome! Remember, it's okay to take your time. I'm here if you need to talk more.
