Hi- I’m Mallory and my pronouns are (she/hers). I'm a Teen Therapist with a counseling practice based in Woodbridge, CT. This channel is dedicated to helping YOU improve your mental health!
The rates of teens struggling with suicide and self harm are rising and I want to reverse that trend! That’s why on this channel you’ll find I share a lot about coping with anxiety, depression, alternatives to self harm and how to talk to parents and other grown-ups about these challenges.
My biggest hope is to increase mental health awareness and break the stigma of talking to a therapist so teens can get the help they deserve and need right here, right now.

Even though I'm not eating as cleanly as I would like I am still working on my body by consistently going to the gym. I've never heard of the 5:1 ratio before so thank you.

It’s a gamechanger!! Let us know how it goes for you
I used to be really insecure about my bod and the one thing that turned it around is think if I see any other girl there’s no chance I’m gonna think she’s ugly andi decided that I’d completely ignore what I felt about myself and take a moment to appreciate other people and realize how beautiful everyone else is and eventually I convinced myself that if everyone else is beautiful then I must be to it sounds silly but it worked

Yes!! I do this too!
Lately I've been trying to improvise and arrange on the piano. I find it's a way to express your feelings and I notice I go to it a lot when I think about my body, it's a way to be gentle towards myself instead of hurting and pushing through pain. When you improvise it's first being guided by sounds but then it's like being guided by feelings that moves like waves that direct ur responses. So in a weird roundabout way I feel I'm listening to my body, responding in a healthy way and having gratitude that my body allows me to play those keys to produce music.

I LOVE THIS!!!! Thanks for sharing 🫶
Great strategies but I would recommend removing the suggestion to find a healthier alternative to hot chocolate. I'm a dietitian and was hoping to show this video to a client with an eating disorder, but I don't want her to feel certain foods are "good" or "bad".

Thanks so much for this feedback :) I just rewatched to see what you meant and I think you may have misheard my recommendation about using hot chocolate as a self-soothing strategy. In the video I said I like to soothe with hot cocoa, and then suggested making your self-soothing drink a healthy one (meaning non-alcoholic/substance). Thanks again for the clarification and I hope these tips help your clients, too.
Haven’t had desire to eat for while now… I don’t recognize myself

You’re in luck Tina- if you’re in CT or NY I’m currently accepting new counseling clients. The first step is to book a free phone screening to make sure everyone is clear on how we work and what to expect so there are no surprises. Here’s that link: www.mallorygrimste.com/contact
