Healing isn’t about “fixing.”
We can’t take away what happened or make it disappear—but we can be present with you.

We can help you sort through it, offer steady and objective support, and work with you to build skills for the moments when it feels like it’s taking over.

If you saw yourself in any of these posts, you’re not alone.

Healing doesn’t require certainty or speed—just space and support.

Take what you need from this. Save it for later, or pass it along to someone who might need it.

When my family went through a really scary medical situation with my dad, we learned pretty quickly how heavy the question “how are you?” can be.

It’s a simple question, asked with good intention….but when something still hurts, it can be hard to answer. Sometimes saying “I’m fine” is just easier than trying to explain everything you’re carrying.

There isn’t a timeline for getting through hard things. Just because life keeps moving doesn’t mean you’re “over it”.

What helps is finding people who feel safe to be real with, and giving yourself permission to take things at your own pace.

If you feel you can….what’s something you wish people understood better about life after going through something hard?

Does this resonate for you?
You’re welcome to share—or simply sit with it.

Different therapists do things differently.
And if you’ve never been to therapy before—please don’t assume it’s like what you’ve seen on TV (truly… it’s usually not represented well 😅).

If you have tried therapy and it didn’t go the way you hoped, that doesn’t mean therapy doesn’t work. Sometimes it just means the fit wasn’t right.

We genuinely believe that feeling successful in therapy often has more to do with the person you’re sitting with than the letters after their name (those matter too—but connection really matters).

We won’t be the perfect fit for everyone—and that’s okay, but we’d love the opportunity to see if we might be the right fit for you. We currently have openings for adults, couples, and teens, both in-person and virtual.

Right now, our in-person sessions are self-pay only. If using insurance is important to you, let us know—we’re happy to talk through options and see what might be possible.

Questions are always welcome as we feel it can help us learn how to better help our community.

Boundaries reduce stress and help your nervous system feel safe enough to regulate.

Being purposeful in your happiness is restorative

Snowy days aren’t inconvenient, they are nervous system invitations

The quiet, slower pace and softer sounds allow us time to slow down and breathe.

Grab a book, get caught up on your favorite show, play games with the family or simply watch the snow and listen to the silence.

Let the world be quiet for a minute. Your brain and body don’t heal in hustle, they heal in pauses.

No resolutions required. No pressure. No pretending. Just humans continuing to try our best! When life, stress, health, and executive functioning get in the way, resolutions can collapse into guilt and self-criticism. Intentions allow for a friendly pivot, time to rest, quite possibly the most important thing….some compassion — especially during the hard seasons.

Christmas break doesn’t have to be the most structured time of the year— it needs to focus on connection.

Board games. Card games. Dice games with extremely creative names.
Pajamas. Snacks. Laughter. A lot of togetherness.

These are the moments kids remember — not the schedule, not the specific toys, not the number of hours you let them play their new video games….. but the moments you have together.

So if you’re together and (mostly) enjoying it, you’re doing it right.

For a handouts with ideas of fun games to play, comment “Play” and we’ll send one your way!

However you’re spending today—celebrating with people you love, enjoying some quiet, keeping things simple, or fully here for the vintage ’80s soundtrack, bikes, and our favorite brave youngsters as Stranger Things returns tonight—we hope this season has treated you kindly.

Wishing you warmth, comfort, peace, and rest as we go through this holiday season and fast approaching the end of the year (and hoping Hawkins survives one more time).

Warm holiday wishes,
The Trident Team
