There is so much
space in between

Healing can be hard. Draining. Lonely.
We know that, because we are on this journey too.

Therapy can be grueling. Painful. Overwhelming.
We know that, because we sit on that chair too.

This website is a feast for the emotionally hungry. From a quick browse to (more often) a lengthy indulgence, I come on in search of inspiration and companionship and leave with heaps of food for thought and chicken soup for the soul:) Please keep this awesomeness going!!

Between Sessions is a lifeline for anyone seeking understanding and comfort in their mental health journey. The handpicked resources are a goldmine for self-discovery! Grateful for the cozy community of support I've found here — it's a testament to the healing power of connection and compassion.

When my emotions swirl yet I cannot pin any feeling down into words, I know that reading a blog (or two or ten) will always give me language for my until-then indecipherable emotions. I can consistently count on feeling gotten and understood, all in a beautifully expressed way.

I love how the music section is so suited to my moods. Whenever I am feeling down or need some commiseration the music is my first stop to either help me cry or pick me up.

When I first came across Between Sessions, I was blown away. There it was, in the comfort and privacy of my home, a site that seemed to address every part of the healing journey experience! A beautifully written blog, which I resonated with so deeply; which so often has me 'triple-blinking' in disbelief, at the similarity of my own emotional experiences.
