🎳 Team Bowling Day! 🎳

We had a great time getting out of the office, spending time together, and enjoying some friendly competition. Days like this remind us how important it is to pause, connect, and have a little fun together.

Grateful for a team that shows up for each other both inside and outside the office. 💙

Not everyone feels celebrated on Valentine’s Day but everyone deserves to feel acknowledged.

Love isn’t just romantic. It’s the way you speak to yourself.
The standards you refuse to lower. The courage to begin again. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

“I’m bored”

It’s okay to feel this way. Being stuck at home can stir up restlessness, anxiety, or just a sense of emptiness. 🧠💛

Try turning boredom into a moment of self-care. Your mental health matters, even in small moments. 💛

NEW GROUP ALERT!!!🔔

We know grief is difficult, especially during and after the Holidays. Experiencing grief and struggling to know who to talk about your loved one with can feel lonely and isolating. Grief support groups provide community and a safe space to process your loss with others who are grieving too. Please connect with us if you or someone you know would benefit from grief support. 🤍

This group is ran by Tori McCord | Graduate Student | Henegar Intern

The holidays have a way of bringing us back into old rooms, old roles, and old expectations. Give yourself permission to arrive honestly. No performing. No shrinking. No pretending.

Just you—exactly as you are.

You are enough.

We had a little surprise guest in staff meeting today… PUPPIES!! 🐶💛

Nothing brightens the day quite like tiny paws and wagging tails. Therapy dogs remind us how powerful simple connection and comfort can be.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a type of depression that follows a seasonal pattern — most commonly appearing during the fall and winter months when daylight decreases. 🌧️💤
Recognizing the symptoms can help you understand what your mind and body might be trying to tell you:

Common Symptoms of SAD:

• Persistent low or sad mood
• Loss of interest or pleasure in activities
• Feelings of hopelessness or worthlessness
• Oversleeping
• Craving carbohydrates or overeating
• Weight gain
• Social withdrawal or “hibernating”
• Low energy or feeling sluggish

SAD affects about 5% of adults and is more common for those living farther from the equator. If these symptoms feel familiar, you’re not alone — and support is available. 💛

Mindfulness isn’t about “clearing your mind.”

It’s about learning to notice what’s happening inside you with less judgment and more compassion.

Here’s why it helps ⤵️

• Reduces stress: Calms the nervous system and lowers emotional reactivity.
• Improves focus: Helps you stay grounded instead of getting lost in spirals.
• Builds emotional awareness: Makes it easier to notice what you’re feeling before it becomes overwhelming.
• Supports trauma healing: Creates space between a trigger and your response.
• Strengthens self-compassion: Teaches your brain to pause, breathe, and respond with kindness.

Mindfulness is a skill — not perfection.
Start with 1–2 minutes a day.
Your future self will thank you 💛

Meredith Rivera, M.A., LPC-MHSP is sharing a worksheet designed to help clients understand and move through difficult emotions. This tool is perfect for moments when emotions feel heavy, confusing, or frozen. It guides clients in noticing, naming, and working through the experience instead of battling it alone. 💛

As Meredith says:
“Something I tell my clients with this resource is that the purpose is not necessarily to formulate emotions in attempt to control them but this resource identifies steps to engage in and can provide a sense of empowerment in understanding how to experience and process the complexities of the emotions, especially when feeling ‘stuck’ in whatever the emotions are.”
