  Emotional eating isn’t about lack of willpower. It’s often about coping. Stress, anxiety, sadness, boredom—even overwhelm—can all trigger the urge to eat, not because your body is hungry, but because your mind is looking for comfort. The challenge? Food may bring temporary relief, but it often leaves behind guilt, frustration, or shame—keeping the cycle going. Understanding the *why* behind emotional eating is the first step toward changing the pattern. At PVD Psych we help clients build healthier coping tools , improve emotional awareness, and create a more balanced relationship with food.

  Did you know? Family therapy can be a powerful tool—not just for teens, but for parents too. When your teen is struggling, it can feel like communication breaks down and everyone ends up on opposite sides. Family therapy helps create space for understanding, healthier boundaries, and stronger connection. At Providence Psych, we work with families to help bridge that gap—so it feels less like *us vs. them* and more like *we’re in this together.*  https://pvdpsych.com/ #PVDPsych   #FamilyTherapy   #TeenMentalHealth   #ParentingSupport   #MentalHealthMatters   #FamilyConnection

  When we talk about postpartum depression, most people think of moms—but dads can struggle too. Studies show that about 1 in 10 new fathers experience postpartum depression in the first year after having a baby. And it doesn’t always look like sadness. For men, it can show up as irritability, emotional withdrawal, overworking, feeling disconnected, or struggling to bond with their baby. New parenthood changes everything and mental health deserves to be part of the conversation for both parents. If you or someone you love is feeling overwhelmed after welcoming a baby, support matters. Therapy can help. https://pvdpsych.com/can-men-get-depressed-after-having-a-baby/ #PVDPsych   #PostpartumDepression   #PaternalMentalHealth   #MensMentalHealth   #NewParentSupport   #MentalHealthAwareness

  Meet Logan England , LICSW I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and offer in person and online therapy to primarily adults, but also youth, in Rhode Island. My areas of special interest include the treatment of anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, ADHD, ASD, life transitions, and grief. I also am committed to working with historically oppressed groups and marginalized individuals. I frequently work with individuals who identify as part of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community on a variety of issues including gender exploration and affirmation.  I provide an eclectic approach to therapy, drawing from a wide range of techniques and modalities in which I have training.  I believe in empowering clients with the tools to continue their self reflection and make long lasting changes outside of the therapy room. I will often provide resources and the occasional “homework” for clients to practice coping skills, reflect on their emotional experiences, and explore mean...

  You’re capable. You’ve done the work. So why does it still feel like you’re about to be “found out”? Imposter syndrome has a way of making even the most accomplished people question themselves—minimizing success, attributing it to luck, and keeping you stuck in self-doubt. But that voice isn’t truth...it’s a pattern. And it can be unlearned. If this resonates, you’re not alone...and you don’t have to navigate it alone either.
