It’s the final week of our DBT skills series! For our last technique, we want you to practice some self-love! Self-validation helps with self-acceptance and emotional regulation. It is essential to validate your own emotions in order to validate others people’s feelings and to properly communicate your needs to others. 💞 Swipe through to learn how!

For Week 2 our 4-week DBT Skills series, we are spotlighting an emotion regulation skill—identifying your emotions. Being able to hone in on the thing you’re feeling can help you understand why you’re feeling it and how you can manage it. Emotion wheels can be used to identify these feelings. Swipe to explore the emotion wheel and try to identify what you are currently feeling! ☸️

In anticipation of our upcoming DBT Group for teens and caregivers starting March 26, we will be posting a different DBT skill every week for the next month as an introduction to the kind of skills you would learn in the group. Our first DBT skill is one example of a mindfulness skill—the 5-4-3-2-1 technique. Swipe to be taken through the exercise and try it out yourself! 🧘‍♀️

Today (March 6, 2026) is Employee Appreciation Day! Yesterday, our wonderful multidisciplinary team went on an all-staff retreat to collaborate, bond, enjoy a delicious lunch, and spend time reflecting on our successes and planning how we can improve our services and give back to the London community this year. We are so thankful to each team member for the incredible work and unique contributions they bring to our team and the clients we serve at NavOn! 💙

…

We at NavOn have an amazing multidisciplinary team of mental health professionals to meet your needs. Unfortunately, the integrity of one of these professions is now at risk due to short-sighted changes being proposed by the CPBAO, which would significantly reduce training for Psychologists and Psychological Associates. Our team of social workers, clinical case managers, psychometrists, psychotherapists, affiliated speech language pathologists, physicians, and psychologists all bring different, but uniquely important, skills and experience to our organization. We pride ourselves on the level of training and expertise of our psychologists, and we do not want our community to lose faith in these team members due to these proposed changes. After all, you would not want an inexperienced contractor building your house, would you? Please vote “No” in the CPBAO survey before Dec. 9 to maintain the high level of training and care provided by Psychologists and Psychological Associates in Ontario!
