This journal is for us—yes, us. As a therapist, I often suggest to my clients to journal.

 

Journaling is an expressive space to process our thoughts and feelings constructively. It’s a space for us to exist, where nobody is looking at our spelling or facial expressions or picking up on our vibes. We deserve that space.

​

I journal in my personal life and write down my moods, time of day, and dreams. It is a way for me to make sense of how we are all connecting. A way for me to heal.

​

I never saw myself as a writer or a creator. While in graduate school I thought of a book that would be able to help people process their thoughts and feelings on different topics, the first, Dating & Relationships. 

 

I decided to take a chance on myself and create. I started writing, got discouraged, picked it back up, then stopped. In the summer of 2021, I decided to pick it back up and completed thus giving you the work that took years of believing and feeling discouraged to create.

 

I hope these journals create access toward growth and self-healing - Dr. Vance
