A quick check-in 5 days after an ART session.

They shared that they walked out of the session feeling lighter — and that the memory that used to bother them now feels like a distant bad dream that no longer holds power.

Before trying ART, they had spent 3½ years trying to work through this trauma without much progress.

Therapy experiences are different for everyone, but moments like this are why we’re grateful to bring Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) to our community.

We’re excited to bring Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) to Bolivar and surrounding communities through Trident counseling.

Sometimes our brains hold onto stressful memories in ways that keep affecting us long after the event itself has passed.

ART is a research supported therapy that helps the brain update how distressing memories are stored. Many people experience, meaningful relief in just a few sessions.

It can help with trauma, anxiety, phobias, intrusive, memories, and negative patterns that feel difficult to change.

Three Trident providers recently completed specialized training to bring this therapy option to our community.

Over the next few months, we’re exploring a few books that connect Black history, resilience, and mental health.

Each offers a different lens — on how stress lives in the body, how access to care is shaped, and how history continues to influence lived experience today.

If you’ve read any of these, we’d love to hear what you thought, and if there’s another book, podcast, video/documentary we should add to our list, we’re ready for your suggestions!!

Black history encourages us to examine the many stories of resilience — stories shaped by courage, community, and strength in the face of systemic inequity.

In mental health, we talk often about context. Where someone lives. What they’ve experienced. Whether they feel safe. Whether they feel understood.

History plays a role in all of that.

Stress, access to care, representation, and experiences all influence well-being. As therapists, part of our ethical care is taking the time to understand that broader picture.

This month is an opportunity to pause, reflect, and expand our understanding of how history continues to shape the present.....including the mental health space.

We’ll be sharing three books in an upcoming post that we’re exploring as part of our continued learning, and if there’s something that has expanded your perspective, we'd welcome you sharing it with us!

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?

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.
