Thinking of what to get your therapist as a thank-you this holiday season? Well, you’re in the right place because we’ve got some great ideas to help you decide. Getting a gift for your therapist could be tricky since you probably have more than a cordial relationship with them. Also, since people tend to dehumanise their therapists without knowing, giving gifts is a great way to show them you care. Recognising that they are people who deserve a thank-you gift just like everyone else is very discerning. That being said, deciding on the right gift for a therapist is tricky because you don’t want to put them in an awkward position. They need to stay professional and object so they can do their job properly. Here are a few appropriate gift ideas you could consider.
- A mug.
Items like coffee cups or mugs are one of the safest and best gifts you can give. The good thing about a mug is that you can get creative with it. You can pay to get it inscribed and write something that shows your appreciation. You could also put a thoughtful photo on it. Although mugs have been a top gift idea for decades, it’s still a great gift and never get old. They’re not too personal either, which makes them very appropriate.
If you feel like a mug is not enough, you can attach a nice CBD-based product from the OTO CBD gifts range. Although scientific studies are minimal, many people swear by CBD’s calming and relaxing effects. Remember, therapists also need self-care.
- Cute room decorations.
Giving your therapist a cute office decoration is also a great idea; much like a personalised mug, it’s perfect because it is appropriate yet not too impersonal. Office owners hardly ever remember to get their own decor; it’s just one of those things that easily slip the mind. So, getting your therapist a few of these would be very convenient for them.
Since you’re probably in their office at least once a week, you would know what little pieces suit their space. For example, you could get them a picture frame that matches the rug or a penholder that matches the walls. You could also get them something that represents their niche, this will seem more thoughtful.
- A diffuser.
Everyone loves a space that smells good; your therapist definitely will too. A diffuser is a perfect gift for office owners since they spend most of their day sitting in their offices; it would help if it smelled good. Much like office decor, diffusers are one of those things that can easily skip your mind when you’re shopping for office fixtures. So receiving this as a gift would mean a lot. Diffusers also represent self-care. The essential oils used in them don’t only make the room smell good, but they also have this calming effect which is perfect for a therapist’s office. Who wouldn’t want to feel like they’re floating on zen clouds while letting their trauma?
