Veterans Day: Thanking Our Heroes 🇺🇸

Today, we honor and remember the incredible service and sacrifice of all our veterans.

We especially want to pay tribute to the loved ones who served, like my Pa (pictured here with his squad). His service and the commitment of every veteran mean the world to our community and our country.

At You Matter Counseling Services, LLC, we understand the unique challenges that veterans face, and we are here to support you.

Will you join us in thanking a veteran today?

We'd love for you to share a photo of your veteran—a parent, sibling, friend, or anyone who served—in the comments below, along with their story or a simple "Thank You."

Today is Stress Awareness Day, a reminder that it’s okay to not be okay. Many veterans face hidden battles long after service ends, and managing stress is an important step toward healing. 💙

If you or someone you know is struggling, reach out; support is always available.

🌟 Expanding Our Expertise in Therapeutic Healing! 🌟

We are so proud to celebrate our amazing therapist, Abby, for taking the initiative to further her skills by attending an intensive training in Sand Tray Therapy!

Abby recently joined a group of dedicated professionals in a beautiful setting to immerse herself in this powerful, non-verbal, and experiential approach to counseling.

Sand Tray Therapy provides clients with a unique way to externalize and process internal conflicts, relationships, and emotions by creating a world within a box of sand tray play. It’s an incredibly insightful tool that can be used with clients of all ages!

We are thrilled for Abby and excited to see how this newly enhanced skill will benefit her clients on their journey toward self-discovery and healing.

If you are curious about Sand Tray Therapy or how it might help you, please don't hesitate to reach out!
