Aligned Living Counseling

12/28/2025

Around this time of year, it’s easy to measure yourself against milestones, numbers, and versions of success that don’t tell the full story, and to feel the subtle pressure to keep achieving and keep moving.

I hope this is your reminder to pause and really see how much you’ve grown, the ways you’ve healed, the impact your light has had on the people around you, and the courage you’ve shown through the highs and the lows. And I hope you feel so proud of yourself✨

(share with a friend who needs these reminders too).

🩷,
Emily Starr, Founder

🎄 Merry Christmas from Aligned Living Counseling 🎄

As this year comes to a close, we want to pause and say thank you. Thank you for trusting us with your stories, your growth, your hard seasons, and your healing. It’s an honor to walk alongside you.

We know the holidays can be filled with joy, grief, reflection, stress, connection, or a mix of all of it. Wherever you find yourself today, we hope you’re able to experience moments of peace, warmth, and grounding.

May this season offer rest for your nervous system, gentleness toward yourself, and hope as we step into a new year together.

Wishing you a safe, cozy, and meaningful Christmas ✨

🌿 Big News at Aligned Living Counseling! 🌿

We’re excited to share that Aligned Living Counseling is now an official internship and practicum site for the University of Arkansas.
This collaboration expands our ability to offer affordable, high-quality therapy options to the Northwest Arkansas community- something we care deeply about.

And today, we’d love for you to help us welcome the first intern joining us through this partnership:

✨ Meet Kenzi Caldwell, Intern (She/Her) ✨
Fayetteville • In-person

Beginning January 2026, Kenzi will provide counseling services at free/reduced-rate pricing as she completes her Clinical Mental Health Counseling internship.

Kenzi offers a warm, humanistic, and inclusive approach and is passionate about supporting adults navigating:
• Anxiety and major life transitions
• Trauma and grief
• Self-discovery and identity exploration
• Those “I can’t keep doing it like this” chapters of life

She believes the therapeutic relationship is the heart of healing- a space where you don’t have to hold everything alone.

When she’s not in sessions or classes, Kenzi enjoys baking, crafting, singing, scrapbooking, and time with friends and family.

We’re so grateful to welcome her to the ALC team and excited for the care and creativity she’ll bring to our community.

The holidays can be a lot- emotionally, mentally, and physically.
If you’re navigating grief, change, or family stress, you’re not alone.
These slides share ways to stay grounded and supported through it all.

Take what helps, leave what doesn’t, and be gentle with yourself this season. 🤎

Today and every day, we honor those who have served. Veterans often carry invisible wounds long after their service ends, and mental health support can make all the difference.

If you’re a veteran or know one who’s struggling, reach out. You don’t have to face it alone- help and healing are here at Aligned Living Counseling. 💙

Mental health isn’t a luxury- it’s a foundation.

This World Mental Health Day, let’s normalize slowing down, setting boundaries, and asking for help when we need it. Healing doesn’t mean you’re broken: it means you’re growing.

At Aligned Living Counseling, we believe true healing happens when mind, body, and spirit work in harmony. 🌿

Let today be your reminder to pause, breathe, and realign.
