🚨Phillies Fans, It’s Okay to Not Be Okay 🚨

If you found yourself yelling at the TV, stress-eating your body weight in soft pretzels, or having deep thoughts about life after that Phillies loss… you’re not alone. We still have 3 games!!💔⚾️

At KGS Counseling, we specialize in helping you process all the stages of grief — including “denial they actually lost” and “bargaining that maybe next year is our year.”

Let’s talk about it before you start breaking out the 2008 highlights again. 😅

📞 570-351-2751
💻 www.kgscounseling.com

Because sometimes, healing starts with saying, “It’s not just a game… it’s the Phillies.” ❤️🤍

Me: “I don’t need therapy.”
Also me: Argues with a GPS, cries during dog food commercials, and thinks everyone at the grocery store hates me.

🎤 Therapist enters the chat

Listen, therapy isn’t just for when everything’s on fire. Sometimes it’s just nice to have someone professionally obligated to listen while you emotionally unpack like a raccoon going through someone’s suitcase.

Normalize saying:

🧠 “I’m going to therapy.”
🍕 Not: “I’m fine,” while eating pizza at 3am and googling “why do I self-sabotage?”

Seeking help isn’t weak. It’s just leveling up with a licensed co-op partner. 💪🧠✨

✨Do you want someone to talk to who won’t interrupt you with “Well I think…” every 5 seconds?✨
Good news: Your therapist won’t do that. Your Aunt Susan at Thanksgiving? No promises.

🛋️ We’ve got openings! (In the schedule… not in the walls, we promise it’s structurally sound.)
Unpack the baggage, and leave with slightly less existential dread than you walked in with. 💼➡️🧠💡

Book a session. Your future self will thank you.
(Your past self may still cringe at that one thing from 7th grade, but we can work on that too.)

🌱 Mental Health Reminder 🌱

You’re not lazy. You’re not broken. You’re not “too much.”

You’re human — and being human means having bad days, feeling overwhelmed, and needing rest. 💛

In a world that glorifies hustle and filters every moment, it’s revolutionary to slow down, check in with yourself, and say:

✨ “What do I need right now?”
✨ “How can I be gentle with myself today?”
✨ “Who can I reach out to, instead of retreating in?”

You don’t have to have it all together. No one really does.
Let’s normalize therapy, deep breaths, journaling, crying it out, or simply going offline for a while. 🧠💬🧘‍♀️

Your mental health matters. Your feelings are valid. Your story is still unfolding — and there’s beauty in that. We have clinicians ready to help you achieve all your goals.
