Explaining Emotional Safety - Rebecca Johnson, LMHC

🌿 In this video I focus on the meaning of emotional safety. You will learn what an emotionally SAFE relationship feels like as well as what an emotionally UNSAFE relationship feels like.
Emotional safety is the ability to be open and vulnerable within an attached relationship. Within an emotionally safe relationship you can be yourself, share your opinions and thoughts, and express your feelings.
Just like with physical safety, we should have the expectation that our relationships are equally emotionally safe. Free from harm.
I’d love to hear from you. Please leave me a comment with your thoughts about emotional safety.
If you are trying to navigate an abusive relationship with a partner or parent, I’d love to chat with you.
Thanks for watching!

Thanks , It was another good video. I will watch your other video on red & green flags. Emotional safety is a new concept. I need to learn to regulate expression of my own emotions.
