Identify Green & Red Flags of Mental Health Providers

Choosing mental health providers is a significant step in your well-being journey. To help you navigate this process, I've created these checklists of "Green Flags" and "Red Flags." <br>Green flags represent positive qualities and behaviors that indicate a healthy and ethical provider, while red flags highlight potential warning signs of harmful or unethical conduct. Use these checklists as a guide during your initial consultations and throughout your therapeutic relationship. <br>Remember, you deserve a provider who prioritizes your well-being, respects your boundaries, and fosters a safe and supportive environment. Trust your intuition, and don't hesitate to seek a second opinion or find a different provider if needed. <br>p.s. These checklists are for informational purposes and should not be used as a replacement for professional medical advice.

Observe Your Nervous System

The Polyvagal Theory is a neurophysiological model that explains how the autonomic nervous system regulates our responses to internal and external stimuli (like stressors!). <br>This theory posits that the autonomic nervous system operates in a hierarchical manner, with three primary states: social engagement, fight-or-flight, and immobilization. <br>These states are influenced by our perception of safety and danger, and they shape our emotional experiences and behaviors.
