🍁 Happy Thanksgiving to the ESTEEM Family 🍁
As we enter this season of gratitude, we want to take a moment to acknowledge each of you. The holidays often bring joy, connection, and togetherness—a time to pause and appreciate the blessings and growth we've experienced throughout the year.
But we also recognize that the holiday season can bring mixed emotions. For many, this time can feel heavy due to loss, loneliness, illness, unresolved hurts, trauma triggers, and overwhelm. If this resonates with you, please know this truth:
You Are Not Alone.
At ESTEEM Counseling and Consulting Services, our mission is to empower and support you through every season—including the difficult ones.

Prepare a graceful way to step away if you become overwhelmed.
✔ Identify Triggers & Vulnerabilities
Know what situations, people, or memories may affect your emotional well-being.
✔ Coping Tools
Write down grounding exercises, breathing techniques, music, scents, journaling prompts, or other strategies.
✔ Affirmations
Simple reminders such as “I deserve peace,” “I can take breaks,” or “I am in control of my boundaries.”
✔ Support Network
List friends, family, or professionals you can call when you need encouragement or support.
