We’re running on puppy time and talking about why a new dog can upend your routine fast. Then we share a therapy tool called immediacy and show how naming what’s happening right now can break through shutdowns, jokes, and stalemates in relationships.
• what immediacy means in therapy and why it matters
• noticing real-time reactions like shutdowns, jokes, and defensiveness
• using I statements to name the dynamic without blame
• examples with partners, parents, and kids after stressful moments
• starting the hard conversation by naming fear and vulnerability
