#HealthyRelationships #selfesteem #BlackMaleTherapist #Therapy #Triple5LightTherapy What does it mean for someone to be truly authentic? And how many people do you know actually fit that description? Do you feel that you’re authentic? Let’s take a look at what this word truly suggests and just what blocks us from achieving authenticity. Naturally, the word authenticity evokes an image of something pure or unadulterated. A letter of authenticity confirms that a certain object or work of art is not a counterfeit. The act of authenticating is a process of determining that something is indeed genuine, as it is purported to be. Experts receive training to authenticate precious objects, memorabilia, and documents, among other rare items. Yet we have no such method for ascertaining the authentic nature of people. Short of being caught in a bold-faced lie or transgression, methods of determining an individual’s authenticity often go unexplored. One’s authentic nature is revealed in t...

#MentalHealth #Depression #Anxiety #SocialMedia Even Facebook agrees that social media can be  bad for your mental health . And research by the Department of Education has found that the mental well-being of teenage girls in the UK  is worsening , with the impact of social media cited as the cause. Yet  my research  reveals that more people are turning to these platforms for help with their mental health issues. This has been exacerbated as the crisis in the NHS sees  waiting times for appointments  grow. While most of the people I spoke to believed social media helped them, there is a concern that it could be adding to ongoing mental health problems. Mental health has recently become the focus of attention within UK policy, with the proposed  rehash of the Mental Health Act , and the new  Power Threat Meaning framework , which aims to reduce the “medicalization” of mental health. Despite raised awareness of some the issues, more and more...

    Angus Grieg #JamilZaki #Connection #Empathy #Human #Psychology #Psychotherapy #MentalHealth #BlackTherapist #Triple5LightTherapy Empathy — or understanding the thoughts and feelings of the people around us — is one of the most important and most trying parts of being a social creature.   But what exactly is empathy? And crucially, can we have more? Stanford psychology professor  Jamil Zaki PhD , director of the Social Neuroscience Laboratory there, studies these very questions. In a TEDxMarin talk, he says that human empathy is actually a skill that can be developed rather than a fixed trait. “Empathy is a simple word for a complex idea,” he explains. “Research psychologists understand empathy as an umbrella terms for multiple ways that we respond to other people’s emotions.” Why is empathy so important?  Some of the reasons are more obvious: “It inspires us to help family members, friends, and strangers,” says Dr. Zaki. “It helps us see past differences and...

 #BlackMaleTherapist,#AfricanAmericantherapist, #Triple5LightTherapy, #ABLM, #BLM, #LatinX, #AsianX, #POC, #LGBTAffirmingTherapy, An “ I” message or “I” statement  is a style of communication that focuses on the feelings or beliefs of the speaker rather than thoughts and characteristics that the speaker attributes to the listener. For example, a person might say to his or her partner, “I feel abandoned and worried when you consistently come home late without calling” instead of demanding, “Why are you never home on time?” ROLE OF “I” STATEMENTS IN COMMUNICATION Thomas Gordon developed the concept of an “I” statement in the 1960s and contrasted these statements to “you” statements, which shift blame and attributions to the listener. “I” statements enable speakers to be assertive without making accusations, which can often make listeners feel  defensive . An “I” statement can help a person become aware of problematic behavior and generally forces the speaker to take respons...

#JohnWilliams #Starwars #Composer # TheEmpireStrikesBack #Oscar #UCLA #Bruin  John Williams is synonymous with Hollywood. The “Star Wars” composer, who has racked up an incredible 51 Oscar nominations, could easily be called the composer laureate of American cinema. He’s cemented his stronghold on modern ears by conducting concerts of his movie music, and this summer marks the 40th anniversary of Williams bringing his repertoire to the Hollywood Bowl. Before he takes the podium Aug. 31, there will also be live-to-picture performances of his beloved scores for “Star Wars,” “The Empire Strikes Back,” and — this weekend — “Jaws.” (David Newman will conduct those performances.) But his Hollywood story didn’t begin with Steven Spielberg’s 1975 shark thriller, or even his early years scoring TV series like “Lost in Space.” It started seven decades ago, about six miles up the 101 Freeway from the Bowl, when Williams was still a curly-haired teenager at North Hollywood High School an...
