A semicolon represents a sentence an author could have ended, but chose not to. A decision to keep it moving forward and not giving up.

The semicolon has become a symbol of awareness for those struggling with mental health. A symbol to remember those we have lost to su***de and to remind everyone to keep going.

Your story is not over.

Passover, or Pesach in Hebrew (פֶּסַח‎), is a major Jewish holiday that commemorates the biblical story of the enslaved children of Israel leaving ancient Egypt. From the most secular to the most observant, almost every Jew observes the holiday with certain rituals, including joining family and friends at a Passover meal, known as a Seder.

Passover focuses on breaking free from bo***ge, which can represent overcoming mental health challenges and negative thought patterns. Sharing the Seder with others, whether in person or virtually, can combat feelings of isolation. Overall, this ritual is an opportunity to provide a sense of comfort and control.

This Thursday's Therapist spotlight is Mariska Kop! Mariska has experience supporting individuals and communities in navigating sexuality and gender issues, as well as anxiety, depression, culture shock, domestic violence and trauma. She would like her clients to know that her identities as a neurodivergent, bisexual, born and raised New Yorker have shaped the kind of therapist she is today. She has a deep commitment to creating a safe, non-judgmental space for her clients, and we're grateful to have her!

At Social Work Counseling Services, we value supervision. One thing our clients may not know is that behind the scenes, there is a supervisor checking in weekly on your progress and helping the therapist work through any struggles. We also have a clinical coordinator in addition to the supervisors who makes double sure that your therapist is doing everything they need to do!

Sooo I'd like to introduce you all to our brilliant empathic staff of supervisors! Please give them a 👏 or 🙌 in the comments below!

1. Women have natural leadership skills. Countries led by women, such as Finland, New Zealand, and Iceland, have consistently ranked high in economic stability, happiness, human development, sustainability, gender equality, and social welfare, demonstrating the positive impact of women in leadership.

2. Women excel at multitasking. Research has shown that women’s brains have stronger connections between the two hemispheres, which allows them to have a higher capacity for managing different tasks simultaneously, making them great multitaskers.

3. Women now control 40% of global wealth, but more importantly, they demonstrate a strong interest in sustainable investments, with 74% expressing a desire to increase the share of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) investments in their portfolios.

4. As of recent data, over 37% of UN humanitarian coordinators are women, a significant rise from 20% in 2010.

5. Research shows that matriarchal societies experience lower levels of violence and conflict compared to patriarchal societies. This is because women, who hold leadership roles, often prioritize peacebuilding and nurturing relationships.

Most people have the best intentions at heart when they're trying to support someone. Usually when you feel dismissed by someone, it's simply because the other person doesn't have the skills yet to give you what you need.

Most of us are taught to move forward from emotions rather than to hold space for them.

There are so many more ways to validate than just this example - encouraging them to feel the feeling, normalizing the feeling, naming the feeling, etc.

Join me in a challenge to validate one person's feelings this week! 💪❤️
