The good, the bad, and the ugly of the last 11 months since I was diagnosed in September.

It’s pretty wild how a diagnosis can end up being a puzzle piece you’ve been searching for your whole life. Here is part 1 of 2 of my ADHD journey: how I got there.

Outside of my own therapy sessions, here are several other products, tools, apps, practices, and services I incorporate into my own self-care routine.

The self-help book, lucky girl mindset, and working on my self-season is in full swing. People are obsessed with the idea of bettering themselves. Why wouldn’t you? However, it can be exhausting to try to keep up with the newest health trends of what water bottle will be socially acceptable and keep you hydrated all […]

Our world has conditioned us to think that if we are not productive, then we are lazy. If we’re not using our time wisely, we’ve wasted it. Almost if the time we have was given to us by someone as an experiment to see what’s the most we can do in the least amount of […]

Hi! My name is Leeor Gal, I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and the group practice owner of The Therapy Gal. In the past, I have struggled with travel anxiety, and I wanted to share my experience along with some tips and tricks to help combat it!  So… Let’s set the scene: It’s the […]

I have the worst luck → I will continue to develop my skillset When things repeatedly go wrong, it is hard not to assume that something of higher power purposely manipulates your failures. Like the universe is against you, it’s easier that way. Place the blame elsewhere and continue chugging on. Yet with a growth […]

This year we will rewrite the narrative for the longing of what the new year will bring us. Upon fantasizing about what is in store for us, it’s hard not to reflect on the past. I’m not sure about you guys, but at this point, I can’t even remember my goals for 2022. They were […]

The holidays are an interesting time. For some the most wonderful time of the year, while others drown in dread of the upcoming months. Expectation paralyzes the perfectionists, while the people pleasers can’t sit still. In a society full of instant gratification, “next best thing”, and micro trends…you might find yourself asking.. When is it […]

It seems as when the days get shorter so does my temper. I swear something about it being pitch black with the stars glistening at 4 pm doesn’t sit right with me. It’s almost as if I can feel my irritability rise, mood drop, and depression tank on the first overcast day. Each year I […]

The first thing that pops into my head when I think of trauma is a therapist sitting on a couch and nodding while saying, “man, that must’ve been tough,” just like the movies. It is so hyped up in the media–five steps to get over your toxic ex, or the seven stages of grief–but truthfully […]

Motivation is hard. Getting motivated is even harder. Pop culture likes to give you these quick fixes to help you “get your life together”, yet holding yourself to those standards to make those changes is half the battle. Unfortunately, there isn’t a shortcut to becoming intrinsically motivated, but there are small habits you can implement […]

In today’s society, we can be quick to judge when looking for a partner.  It has almost become a trend to pick out someone’s “red flags” or unfavorable characteristics about someone that will ultimately become a deal killer. Instead, why don’t we focus on the positive pillars in a relationship that can help overlook the […]

When trying to understand and accept ourselves to “reach” self-awareness fully, it’s hard not to believe that one day there will be an aha or lightbulb moment when everything clicks.
