Goomygoomygoomy

Goomy here, goomy there

Goomy, goomy everywhere

Goomies that're in a pair

Goomy, goomy! Why are you there?

Goomy, goomy, love affair!?

Goomy, goomy, life unfair.

... There sure are a lotta goomy out today.

I’m suddenly interested in pokemon again. Give me my boy 🫴🏻

i am so easily impressed by trees

sick and tired of seeing these ace trainers brag about their super smart badass level 100 shiny mons.

This is Sol. She is a fucking idiot. She regularly forgets that she is a flying type and sits at the bottom of cabinets n such crying cause she doesn't know how to get up. I would die for her.

You’d think, but he’ll even go work odd jobs in the community to fund his own stuff…

What usually gets him to stop is when Teenie the Oddish’s leaves start to wilt from heat. So there’s that at least…

Teenie gets him to sun bathe outside now and again, which is nice. It’s cute how close they are. :)

Hello. Official appointment request! ^^

Chief the Chansey, with his little Oddish passenger (they are inseparable… we’ve tried) are the clients!

Background: Chief was a medic in the pokewars of yore and belonged to my grandpa. He’s in my care now as my grandpa isn’t able to care for him. He’s not distrustful of humans really, more so he sees them all as in his care and can’t seem to submit himself to their care. He’s been pretty isolated and is mourning my grandmother and the loss of company of my grandpa/ loss of caretaking for him since he is in my families care now.

Hope that’s enough background! Any additional info and scheduling can be tagged:

Thank you for the starting information! That's very helpful! ^^

Breaking out of selfless habits in order to care for yourself or let others care for you can be tough, I've actually had that issue myself before when I get too into the zone. ^^"

Is there any specific habits that really stand out?

Wow, super interesting stuff. How have you found the higher intelligence pokemon to do therapy with? How do they differ from humans? I guess it would be hard to like, know, but if you have any insight I’m super curious.

I’d reckon a good amount of ghost types could do with some therapy… the way some of them are created is pretty traumatic.

Not reacting to stimuli the same way is a super interesting point. I assume unconditioned stimuli for pokemon is one of those more confusing things to figure out- what do you like and what do you dislike, how do I give a carnivorous plant a little treat for being a good sport… pfft.

Hey. Laser mentioned you're looking to be a therapist, said we might get along since I'm a pokemon psychologist.

Figured since I'm running the blog today, I might as well say hey. Hope your studies are going well.

Oh hi!

I was curious about you! Nice to meet you!

Do you have any idea where pokemon therapy and human therapy diverge? I’ve been curious about this since in most of my classes it’s emphasized how interconnected and similar they can be…

Hope to talk to you more!

Have you ever helped a client navigate discrimination? Or a friend? It’s a tricky subject, I know.

Frankly, however, the only balm for ignorance is knowledge. Maybe you can turn that around- you might have a slow down for a while, yes. But maybe…

There’s always hope. Maybe you need a PR team? Haha.

Absolute worse to worse- you hid in anonymity once already.

Good morning, Rotomblr!

Felt a little stressed so I put on some calming music and read through my notes for the past week!

I feel calmer now!

How is everyone else's mornings going? Or day in general if it's later for you?

the flesh is willing. the flesh is also eepy.

Ahhh stigma..

I see. So is there a point of comfort with clients where you do disclose? Or is it just an overall no-no due to generalized stigma?

Sorry to hear it- can’t help but relate though. :’) Though as a matter of relating I can’t disclose why! Is that irony? I always struggle with the definition of irony.

Well, it’s so cool to meet someone interesting I also relate to and share a career with! I hope to talk to you more and see you around!

Nice to meet you!

Nice to meet you too!

A fellow therapist who's just recently joined Rotomblr, what a pleasant sight! ^^

How have you been settling so far?

Oh no- like, to dox you?

That’s no good :(

Say, I can’t help but mention, I saw one of your posts about being hesitant about self-disclosure and that causing distrust with clients. I’ve been learning about self-disclosure in my class and how integral well placed SD can be to building rapport.

What subjects are you hesitant on? How have you found your way around it to build rapport anyway? Feel free to ignore this if it’s too personal! I just figure there’s always something to learn from people ^^
