The weather noticeably warmed this week! A gorgeous picture from today's walk and talk session. The warmer weather also welcomed lots of chicakdees singing, and we made sure to take a moment to stop and listen.

What is Walk and Talk?
We combine traditional talk therapy with the calming effects of movement and nature. Instead of meeting in an office, sessions take place outdoors while walking side by side, creating a more relaxed and open environment. This approach can help ease anxiety, improve mood, and make it easier to process difficult emotions. It’s a great option for clients who find movement grounding or who prefer a less traditional, more natural setting for therapy.ys s g s

✨ Exciting Update! ✨
I’m thrilled to share that I’m expanding my work and will now be offering therapy independently through Mama Bear Clinical Services, LLC.!

Starting in November, I’ll have openings for new adult clients via telehealth and walk-and-talk therapy — a favorite among many of my clients who appreciate movement and connection in the therapy process.

I will be accepting Aetna and Premera Blue Cross Blue Shield, as well as self-pay.

If you’ve been considering therapy or are looking to reconnect with care that fits your current season of life, I’d love to connect.

“Tis the season! As my family wraps up the “last” of our summer adventures, next week we will have to adjust to a new routine at home and school, to a new teacher, increased social interaction…among other shifts!

As a mom, I know how difficult these “normal” shifts can be for the whole family. Our clinic is here to help, and I love working with young kids and families needing extra support! I see kids 5+ and have openings starting next week

Back-to-School Transition Tips for a Smooth Start 📚✨

The Shift from summer to school can be exciting and stressful for kids and parents alike. Here are a few ways to make the transition easier and more connected:

📍Make time to talk about each other’s day - Sharing highlights and challenges builds trust and connection.

✏️Plan a fun, connective weekend - Even a simple family picnic or movie night can help everyone recharge.

📝Keep communication open - Between children, partners, and teachers open dialogue helps catch challenges early.

🚌Create consistent routines - Bedtimes, morning schedules, and homework time can help children feel grounded and prepared. Even if they dislike it.

Our clinic is here to help if you or your family are finding these transitions challenging. We love working with 🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒families, adolescents, and adults. We understand that life brings many seasons of change, and not just back-to-school🚌.

Having the right support can make all the difference, and we’d be honored to be a part of your journey.💫
