I wanted to be seen, but I didn't want people to know about the wanting. What is it about revealing effort and desperation that feels so wrong? Come join me as I explore the underpinnings of human desperation, the desire to be seen, and how we play peekaboo as adults--showing the parts of ourselves that actually conceal the parts that we wish others would see.

Wanting To Be Seen But Not Wanting People To Know We Are Desperate For It,

We have access to more mental health information than at any other point in history, and yet anxiety &amp; depression rates are growing. Mental health advice is tricking us into believing that we are self-improvement projects, which ironically is creating more disconnection as we hide our flaws to avoid judgment when we can't "work" our way out of our struggles. The truth is: we experience freedom by being honest about who we are, not changing who we are. I will be a therapist who risks something--revealing my least impressive sides to you, shifting the shame, and not fixing the problem.
