Get help with your teen's depression!

Parenting is hard, especially when it feels like your teens don't want to talk about anything with you. This is normal. But maybe your instincts are picking up on more mental health concerns.

We are offering an in-person clinic in January-February to help parents get the tools they need to help their teens struggling with depression and thoughts of self-harm.

Don't wait - there are limited seats, and we don't want you to miss out on an opportunity to help your loved ones.

‘Tis the season - but not always for joy. If the lights, parties, and expectations bring pain instead of comfort, give yourself grace. Pause. Breathe. Connect. You deserve care just as much as anyone.

Watch for signs of mental health in your family, friends, and yourself.
• Pulling away from friends or isolating
• Big mood shifts or feeling sadness, irritability, numbness
• Losing interest in things that used to be fun or enjoyable
• Changes in sleep, appetite, or energy
• Trouble concentrating or feeling overwhelmed
• Increased alcohol/drug use or other relief substances
• Hopeless thoughts or talking about wanting to disappear

If you or someone you care about is struggling, please reach out.
988 is available 24/7.

This Thanksgiving, remember that gratitude isn’t about ignoring the hard things—it’s about creating a little light in the middle of them.

When we pause to notice the warmth of a gathering, a quiet moment of peace, or the blessings in our lives, our mind gets a chance to rest.

Gratitude doesn’t fix everything, but it reminds your nervous system that safety and goodness still exist.

Wishing you a happy Thanksgiving wherever you are.
