“To be hopeful in bad times is not just foolishly romantic. It is based on the fact that human history is a history not only of cruelty,
but also of compassion.” ✊❤️🌱🕯️

Mental health is shaped by more than thoughts.
It’s influenced by the air we breathe, the creatures we bond with, and the spaces that hold us.

Our minds are closely tied to the world around us. Care for your surroundings. 𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒏𝒆𝒄𝒕 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒍𝒊𝒇𝒆 𝒃𝒆𝒚𝒐𝒏𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒄𝒓𝒆𝒆𝒏.

A new law signed by Governor JB Pritzker protects patients by limiting the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in therapy and psychotherapy services. This measure prohibits anyone from using AI to provide mental health and therapeutic decision-making.

✨ Milestones aren’t always marked by rings or baby showers. Healing, growth, and personal courage deserve to be seen and celebrated too.

As a therapist, I’ve witnessed the quiet bravery it takes to leave a toxic relationship, to face trauma, to go back to school, to run that first mile (or 26). These moments may not come with balloons, but they are just as worthy of recognition.

Let’s normalize celebrating emotional resilience, inner work, and the non-linear paths we walk toward becoming whole. 💛

🕊️ As Pride Month comes to a close, this Pride Month feels a bit heavier. As rights are being stripped away in some states, the fear and isolation many LGBTQIA+ youth experience is growing.

Too many young people have taken their own lives, not because of who they are, but because they feared rejection from the people they loved the most. Some of their family members may never even know....

Please, remember this:

💔 Some kids would rather die than disappoint their family.
👀 Your kids are watching you. They're listening.
💬 Even if you don’t understand, speak with compassion.
🌱 Acceptance doesn’t require full comprehension, it requires love.
🫶 You don’t have to "get it" to support it.

Create homes, schools, and communities where youth don’t have to choose between authenticity and safety.

Be the reason a child feels seen.
Be the reason they stay.
Be the safe place. 🌈

Just like this tulip 🌷 pushing through the cold earth to bloom, we too rise 🌱 despite the weight of hardship, despite the storms. Resilience is quiet but powerful. It’s the soft strength that says, “I’m still here.”

Rise anyway.
Bloom anyway.
Shine anyway.
Like air, you rise...🔥

Sometimes we spend so much time looking back ⏳, wishing for younger days, regretting missed chances, that we forget the beauty of where we are right now ✨.

Continue the good work. ✨
Continue to build bridges, not walls. 🌉
Continue to lead with compassion. ❤️‍🔥
Continue the demanding work of liberation for all.... ✊🏽
Continue to dismantle broken systems, large and small. 🛠️
Continue to set the best example for the children who are radiant beams of curiosity... 🌱
Continue to be a vessel of nourishing joy. ☀️

Continue right where you are,
right where you live into your days. 💫
