ok yes this boy definitely needs some balancing, and i do think it'd be pretty beneficial since he can't really be open about his retrospec experiences with his regular therapist.

i'd like for him to be a newish client, if only because in november he started really talking his poor mental health / poor general state of affairs seriously and was like hm. fuck. i should fix this because im miserable.
for a little background, he's a foster kid who has now aged out of the system, and with that came a whole slew of issues which he externalized through acting out. he has a bad temper and uses his abrasive personality as a destructive tool to keep people away from him and to cover his vulnerabilities. his canon background is pretty dark so i won't get into detail here since it deals with pretty sensitive content (like child abuse) but essentially, getting those memories back has put malik in a weird spot where he doesn't know how to cope with the memories. aaand lastly, that intersects with his canon dissociative disorder, so he feels like he has to keep track of like... three other maliks, instead of just himself, and it sort of reinforces his insecurities. who is he really???? what is going on?????

wow that's really heavy, im sorry. but i do want to reiterate that using more holistic methods to help restore some balance to his life would be pretty helpful, since so far he's only been getting help (or rejecting help) in one area at a time, and nothing really like... syncs together to be effective, if that makes sense?

i'm going to do some reading on the therapies in your petalflow link, but i'll also say (again lol) that is nothing else, one of the massages would be gr8 to help him relax. biofeedback might help his temper + impulsivity if he has to stop and take a moment to listen to his body and chill, too.
