October is a Month to Reflect on Mental Health 🍂

As the seasons shift, it’s natural to pause and check in with ourselves—emotionally, mentally, and physically. October is ADHD Awareness Month and Depression Awareness Month, a reminder that mental health is not one-size-fits-all.

ADHD can show up as forgetfulness, overstimulation, or creative bursts paired with burnout. Depression can be quiet, hidden under busyness or humor, or felt as disconnection and exhaustion. Often, the two overlap—but understanding how they intersect can open the door to self-acceptance, practical coping strategies, and renewed hope.

Our therapists help clients:
✅ Build routines that reduce overwhelm
✅ Learn strategies to focus and balance emotions
✅ Strengthen self-awareness and self-compassion
✅ Explore identity and personal growth safely

Therapy isn’t about “fixing” who you are—it’s about working with your brain, not against it, and finding care that truly feels human.

🏳️‍🌈 Celebrating LGBTQ+ History Month

Did you know that the first National Coming Out Day was celebrated on October 11, 1988? It was created to honor the courage of LGBTQ+ individuals who live openly, and to raise awareness about equality and acceptance.

At Circle in a Square Counseling, we honor this legacy every day by providing inclusive and affirming therapy. We also offer a free LGBTQ+ Support Group, a safe space to share your experiences and connect with others.

No matter where you are on your journey, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Our virtual group therapy is open to adults, teens, and families across Washington State.

Honoring Indigenous Peoples’ Day 🌿

Today, we pause to honor the strength, wisdom, and resilience of Indigenous peoples — the original stewards of this land. Their deep connection to community, healing, and balance offers lessons that continue to guide us in our own journeys of wellness and restoration.

At Circle in a Square, we recognize that healing is collective. As we do the work of mental health, we also honor the generations of Indigenous knowledge that have long centered wholeness — mind, body, and spirit.

We invite our community to take a moment today to reflect, learn, and honor the stories that have shaped this land and continue to shape our shared path forward.

October is ADHD Awareness Month — a time to replace stigma with understanding.

ADHD isn’t about “not trying hard enough.” It’s about how the brain processes information, focus, and emotion. For many, it’s a mix of creativity, high energy, and deep feeling — alongside real challenges with attention, organization, or overwhelm.

At Circle in a Square Counseling, our therapists help clients of all ages understand their ADHD, build practical strategies for daily life, and embrace their strengths.

You’re not “too much.” You just need the right support.
