In this week’s blog, I break down what cognitive distortions are, how they impact our mental health, and how you can begin to challenge them through tools like thought journaling and cognitive restructuring. Whether you’re brand-new to therapy or just looking for clarity, this post offers practical steps to help you take your thoughts off autopilot. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/677df03d8fa6535c9c421f2a/17bef71a-3fa8-439f-bd02-048cfdac2965/ChatGPT+Image+Aug+8%2C+2025%2C+08_43_24+PM.png Blog/Articles - Untwisting Your Thinking: How Cognitive Distortions Increase Anxiety (And What to Do About It) - This creates a loop: Over time, this cycle increases your sensitivity to stress and limits your confidence in handling daily life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/677df03d8fa6535c9c421f2a/1754601928258-HVQ2VQFMMMXKYFQS8W64/Cognitive+Distortions.png Blog/Articles - Untwisting Your Thinking: How Cognitive Distortions Increase Anxiety (And What to Do About It) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/677df03d8fa6535c9c421f2a/1754601927266-H0CUAX1UPI8UOZLREC5P/Cognitive+Distortions+%281%29.png Blog/Articles - Untwisting Your Thinking: How Cognitive Distortions Increase Anxiety (And What to Do About It) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/677df03d8fa6535c9c421f2a/1754601927212-CZV8Q7B0BKDA7Y9SQV6D/Cognitive+Distortions+%282%29.png Blog/Articles - Untwisting Your Thinking: How Cognitive Distortions Increase Anxiety (And What to Do About It) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/677df03d8fa6535c9c421f2a/c432cdc4-feea-439c-97c3-84828df4fa0a/Cog+Distortions+Blog+thought+log.png Blog/Articles - Untwisting Your Thinking: How Cognitive Distortions Increase Anxiety (And What to Do About It) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.hollercounseling.com/blog/undoing-the-freeze-how-to-reclaim-motivation-when-you-feel-stuck monthly 0.5 2025-07-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/677df03d8fa6535c9c421f2a/a519383d-3ea4-4f6d-a5b4-50e840618c49/%E2%80%9CWhen+we+feel+stuck%2C+it%E2%80%99s+not+a+sign+of+failure+%E2%80%94+it%E2%80%99s+a+sign+our+nervous+system+needs+safety%2C+not+shame.%E2%80%9D.png Blog/Articles - Undoing the Freeze: How to Reclaim Motivation When You Feel Stuck - Introduction Have you ever had a day where you just couldn’t get started — no matter how important the task was? You sit there knowing what you should do, but your body feels heavy, your thoughts stall out, and everything feels impossible. That’s not laziness. That’s freeze, a biological survival response. The freeze response is a state of nervous system shutdown. It’s your body’s way of trying to protect you when it senses that fight or flight aren't safe or possible. While this response is incredibly adaptive in life-threatening situations, in everyday life it can feel like being paralyzed by tasks, responsibilities, or decisions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/677df03d8fa6535c9c421f2a/f1def70c-1226-4fff-8afa-d552153b2b3a/%E2%80%9CWhen+we+feel+stuck%2C+it%E2%80%99s+not+a+sign+of+failure+%E2%80%94+it%E2%80%99s+a+sign+our+nervous+system+needs+safety%2C+not+shame.%E2%80%9D+%281%29.png Blog/Articles - Undoing the Freeze: How to Reclaim Motivation When You Feel Stuck - Why Freeze Isn’t Laziness Laziness implies an unwillingness or indifference — a choice not to act. Freeze, on the other hand, is an involuntary nervous system shutdown that can feel paralyzing. You may want to do the thing (clean the kitchen, send the email, make the call), but your system is in a fog or freeze state that blocks forward motion. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/677df03d8fa6535c9c421f2a/ebe89359-fa92-4fb2-9aa4-7aa63c68adab/%E2%80%9CWhen+we+feel+stuck%2C+it%E2%80%99s+not+a+sign+of+failure+%E2%80%94+it%E2%80%99s+a+sign+our+nervous+system+needs+safety%2C+not+shame.%E2%80%9D+%282%29.png Blog/Articles -

While Pride is often associated with big cities and parades, it’s just as vital, if not more so, in rural areas like Eastern Kentucky. At Counseling in the Holler, we believe in the power of visibility, compassion, and safe spaces. I know that living in a small town can bring unique challenges and unique joys, especially for LGBTQ+ folks. And as a lifelong resident of Eastern Kentucky myself, I see firsthand the courage it takes to live authentically in a place where resources and acceptance aren’t always easy to come by. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/677df03d8fa6535c9c421f2a/4be89f80-52eb-4d09-92c7-f627fe00cd1b/Untitled+design+%284%29.png Blog/Articles - Pride in the Holler – Honoring Our Roots, Lifting Our Voices - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/677df03d8fa6535c9c421f2a/dcde5268-8a39-45bc-ac1a-9b41fe0292ec/Untitled+design+%281%29.png Blog/Articles - Pride in the Holler – Honoring Our Roots, Lifting Our Voices - Let’s Honor Our Roots and Lift Our Voices This Pride Month, let’s celebrate who we are and where we’re from.

It’s completely normal to feel that you are not clicking with your therapist or that their style doesn’t align with your needs. Signs of a mismatch may include feelings of discomfort, frustration, or a lack of engagement during sessions. If you find yourself questioning the effectiveness of your therapy, it’s important to acknowledge those feelings. Despite the best intentions of both parties, not every therapeutic relationship is a perfect match. Mismatched chemistry doesn't mean the counselor is unqualified or the client is "difficult." It simply reflects the uniqueness of each individual. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/677df03d8fa6535c9c421f2a/1737335005496-6EEY463J8RLXZ9QDYFRX/unsplash-image-P2pDbRoGGy0.jpg
