I can't help but think how there are so many people right now who are struggling. Struggling with loss, with relationships, with themselves, with practical needs like housing, food, and safety. The world can seem pretty bleak when we see all the is going wrong. It's times like this that I really appreciate all the people and organizations in our community doing just amazing work. Giving back, supporting others, people looking out and doing the right thing even if its not convienient. I love watching people support others. There is so much good in the world, so much beauty, and so many amazing people- I need to remind myself to search for the good in my every day.

It's really cool when I learn how to do something that I didn't think was easy and just knew it was harder than I thought- mainly with tech/IT situations. Well, making this QR code was really simple, and I think it's neat! Life can be like that, really foreign concepts can be viewed as really hard- but when you are walked through it, and/or supported it can be very manageable and maybe not as hard as we think!

I am accepting clients, accepting most insurances and Medicare, and am virtual only (very flexible!) You can reach out to me here on FB, but the QR code is connected to my website! I would love to talk with you and support you on your journey! wateringhopellc.org

We need GOOD sleep, nutrition, hydration, sunlight AND rest. It's a lot to balance, I know full well. When we can get all these things in our life in a consistent manner, positive thoughts follow, the confidence to take on challenges increases and we feel so much better.

I am so excited about this! Social Workers are finally getting an Interstate Compact! This means that eligible Social Workers will be able to apply for a multistate license, and this is so exciting since there is such a high demand and not enough of us to go around. The easier it can be to provide services the better!

If you want to see where your state is in the legislative process check out this website! Maryland has joined officially, and Pennsylvania is "pending".

Social Work Licensure Compact Scroll Down About The Council of State Governments (CSG) is partnering with the Department of Defense (DoD) and the Association of Social Work Boards (ASWB) to support the mobility of licensed social workers through the development of a new interstate compact.

I saved this post awhile ago as it struck a chord with me.

Things are hard for so many. It's ok to take time to acknowledge those feelings and take time for yourself. Then it's a good idea to set boundaries in place that allows you to move through those feelings. That's going to look different for different people. If we don't know what's really wrong, we can't do the work to heal and grow and reveal the beauty that's waiting.

I don't post on here as often as I would like, however I am very grateful to everyone who has supported me and my aspirations to own my business, fully debt free, fully virtual, serving people in both PA and MD, Deaf and Hearing. I officially became a buisiness in March 2023 and started supervising a LSW, in May I saw my first client as Watering Hope, LLC. This year has been a huge blessing and I am grateful to be of service to people who are looking for hope. Having only been open for 1 yr 9 mo, I am beyond thrilled to see my practice grow. I have worked with people who have ADHD, level 1 Autism, marital issues, parenting issues, people who want to grow in a wide variety of areas in life, and people who are struggling with grief and loss. I'm sure the people I have walked with have been supported, however I have learned much from them as well. I have a goal to post more often in 2025, but more importantly to continue to provide meaningful mental health services to the best of my abilities.

I wish everyone Happy Holidays and "see" you in the new year! Until then, here is a beautiful picture of a moth that landed on some of my daisy's last month. Can anyone tell if its a male or female Common Buckeye?

Its that time of year- back to school, "fall" or second summer depending on where you live :) Which can be a season of great joy and expectation or a season of marked sadness... this is also the time that starts us looking forward to the holidays so many seasonal holidays coming up. All of these events can bring a wide variety of feelings which are all valid and some easier than others to process.

What does this season bring to mind for you?

If you need someone to talk to, if you have been thinking about starting counseling, I have availability and would be honored to support you on your journey. Just reach out marissa@wateringhopellc.org
