Trailhead Journal

Every reactive moment is an invitation to a part

TherapistAssist logo

A trailhead is any thought, feeling, or reactive moment that could be followed inward to find a part. Track them for a week — themes emerge fast.

Every reactive moment is an invitation

What looks like a bad reaction is a part showing itself. Instead of managing it, note the trailhead — and come back with curiosity when it's safe to.
