Allow Me To Introduce Myself
.
.
I stole this idea from @christabelmintahgalloway 😂. She’s a creator that focuses on repair, community building and de-escalation in lieu of disconnection. I? I am the coach and therapist that focuses on helping you understand where *you* begin and end within community.
.
.
As a therapist and a coach, I’ve seen that a number of my clients do not know how to understand their worth outside of overextension. Who believe that they have to give to their detriment in order to be seen as valuable. Who believe that people pleasing—that keeping people pleased—will help them avoid harm, abandonment and betrayal. It does not.
.
.
To people please—at its root—is the over-activation of the fawning trauma response. My job is to help you understand WHY you fawn, WHAT you want to do differently instead, and HOW to walk you to that “different” you.
.
.
My name is Odi, and I say that I teach my clients how to be SELFISH. But honestly? I teach you how to see your needs, your wants and your desires as *just* as important as those around you. If you know this just stirred something in your spirit? Hit the comments. I’ll see you in my class. Peace. #peoplepleasing #therapy #explore by @professor.odi

Who Are You When You Aren’t Needed?
.
.
A number of people identify their helpfulness as a core part of their identity. This in and of itself is benign, and for some people, culturally aligned.
.
.
Question is, when you are no longer being called to put out fires, or hold space, or resolve conflict—-do you give yourself the opportunity to tell people what you need? Peace be to the Nation. #therapy #explorepage by @professor.odi

I’m Tired Of This Shit Grandpa
.
.
There are times where I wonder whether or not—in this space of exploring and discussing Black Men’s mental health—whether or not when we are asking Black Men to heal, are we actually concerned about their well-being.
.
.
In other words: Can we define a healthy man at the level of himself, first? If a healthy Black Man is only defined as well through his ability to be a conduit for means of production?
.
.
We are using an enslaver’s framework. Peace be to the nation. #therapy #explorepage by @professor.odi

They’ll Be Iight.
.
.
Some of us have the tendency to overextend ourselves due to subconsciously or pre-consciously not desiring others to experience the pain that we did. That is an honorable, and necessary thing.
.
.
You cannot always be the one to extend. You were harmed. You learned—or are learning—how to mend those wounds. The person who you are overextending for? Must learn the same.

I’m TF Burnt
.
.
Whoever said burnout doesn’t exist can consume a spicy sack of bovine testicles. This shit is real. Moreover? It’s difficult every time I experience it.
.
.
To give myself the permission to be messy means—for me—knowing that my process requires my notes to be across the floor. As long as they’re legible? We good.

.
One step at a time. Peace be to the Nation. #explorepage #therapy by @professor.odi

Complex trauma isn’t simply about what happened to someone. It’s about how those experiences can shape development, relationships, regulation, and the ways we learn to survive.

And when trauma is carried across generations, the work becomes even more complex.

How do we support the child without blaming the caregiver? How do we understand behavior without reducing it to a problem? And how do we intervene early enough to change the trajectory?

We explore these questions at our upcoming Philadelphia SPROUT trainings, offering CEUs for LPCs LMFTs LCSWs and Psychologists.
