May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and that includes supporting the mental health of the helpers. 💚

Clinical supervision is more than a checkbox on the path to licensure, it's a space for growth, accountability, reflection, and healing.

For emerging counselors, it can be a lifeline:
A space to process client work, explore personal reactions, build competence, and be seen.

Supervision helps ensure we’re not just providing care, but doing so ethically, with compassion and clarity. It’s advocacy in action. 🩷💜

Mental health advocacy isn’t just about awareness it’s about access, equity, and action.

We need more providers, more funding, and fewer barriers. I’m proud to stand at the intersection of clinical work and community change.

Let's continue our discussion on stress. Ever feel like your body is carrying more than your mind can name? That’s allostatic load, the wear and tear on your body from chronic stress.

Over time, it can lead to:
• High blood pressure
• Weakened immunity
• Sleep disruption
• Anxiety and depression
• Increased risk of chronic illness

‼️Mental health isn't just in your head, it lives in your body.‼️

This Mental Health Awareness Month, let’s normalize rest, boundaries, and nervous system care as survival tools, not luxuries. 🩷💜

Let’s talk about stress—because not all stress is the same. During Mental Health Awareness Month, it’s important to name what we’re feeling and explore ways to manage it.

Common Symptoms:
• Irritability or mood swings
• Trouble sleeping or fatigue
• Muscle tension or headaches
• Difficulty concentrating
• Changes in appetite

Ways to Manage:
• Deep breathing or grounding exercises
• Set boundaries and protect your time
• Engage in physical movement (walk, stretch, dance)
• Seek support—community, therapy, or supervision
• Prioritize rest—your body is not a machine

You don’t have to carry it all alone.
