All of us have ideas about what the holidays will look like with our families. Sadly, our real life experiences often look much less like the movies than we’d like. If your kiddos are having a tough time with big emotions as all the excitement of the season happens, this is a helpful way to reflect back to them what you’re seeing so they can learn how to express themselves (with less kicking and screaming 😉). 🎄🙌

When we hold on to the pain we're experiencing or try to suppress it, it may show up in unexpected ways. When we share our pain with those we trust, we can find ways to live our lives fully. In the comments below, consider sharing how your trusted community has shown up to hold space for your healing. 🌞

☀️THIS LADY “had me at hello”…meaning, the instant I interviewed her to be a graduate level intern at my private counseling practice, I knew she was special. And I was right!

☀️I had the privilege of helping her with her first clinical experiences and she knocked it out of the park…

☀️Just yesterday we reflected on her very first client…an adolescent who had resisted therapy and reported hating her last 6-7 therapists 🤷🏻‍♀️…and I thought “who knows?”🤔

Maybe Hannah will connect with her?

And yes…she did.

And she has served many, many others too. What a gift!!

☀️If you are ready for true personal and relational evolution, she might be for you.

☀️I just hired her at my growing private practice and I guarantee that the openings she has will not be around long. She’s that good. She does local therapy and distance/virtual coaching.

☀️Interested? Reach her directly at Hannah Sholar on FB or you can message me and I’ll connect you!

☀️Here is her bio:

Hannah Sholar holds a master’s degree in counseling with a focus on clinician mental health and spiritual formation.

She is passionate about mental health and wellbeing and views each person’s journey as their own.

Hannah utilizes an experiential and person-centered approach to address a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction recovery, relational communication and conflict, family support, burn out, and life stage changes.

-----therapy REMOVES obstacles-----

"I did not have to do the entire job; I did not have to inspirit the patient with the desire to grow, with curiosity, will, zest for life, caring, loyalty, or any of the myriad of characteristics that makes us fully human. No, what I had to do was to identify and remove the obstacles. The rest would follow…" -Irvin Yalom

What is something besides therapy that improves your mental health?

One of my favorites is going outside.

A fantastic mentor who was completing a PhD, teaching, seeing clients, AND raising 4 kids told me that even 10 minutes of soaking in something outside of a screen and 4 walls helps reset your brain.

I enjoy the outdoors, but sometimes the demands of work and life can make it feel impossible, and I'm so glad he made me go outside!
