Let me say this clearly:

If you want a Black therapist… that’s okay.

There’s something different about not having to explain the culture.
The slang.
The “why” behind certain family dynamics.

We exist.
We’re trained.
And yes, we’re safe spaces.

Come as you are. All parts of you are welcome here. 🤗

And if you know a Black therapist who’s doing incredible work tag them. Let’s celebrate us. 🖤

It’s Random Acts of Kindness Day.

And if we’re being honest… the world feels heavy right now. People are stressed. Overstimulated. Carrying more than they let on.

And when the world feels like this, it usually shows up somewhere.

Often? It shows up at home. Short tempers. Less patience. Snapping when we didn’t mean to.

So today, maybe kindness starts there.
With a softer tone.
An extra hug.
A pause before reacting.
A reminder to your child, and maybe yourself, that you’re both doing the best you can.

Kindness doesn’t have to be big.
Sometimes it’s just choosing connection when it would’ve been easier to choose frustration.

If you practice one small act of kindness at home today, tell us what it was. Let’s celebrate the little shifts that matter. 💛

Self-love isn’t always grand gestures or big changes.
Sometimes, it’s the quiet choices that protect your peace.
The ones we often overlook.
The ones that don’t get posted.
The ones that actually make a difference.

This Valentine’s Day, we’re rethinking what self-love really looks like 🤍

✨ What’s your most underrated form of self-love?

Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl moment was bigger than music.

It was about believing in yourself.
Honoring where you came from.
Trusting your people.
Choosing love over hate.

Mental health isn’t always quiet.
Sometimes it looks like culture, confidence, and community on the biggest stage in the world.

We all know the body keeps score.
So when we talk about trauma and how it sits in the body, we have to understand this:
the body needs release too.

We can’t just talk through the past and assume that’s enough.
Words alone don’t move what the body has been holding.

Healing requires us to connect to the body.
To tune into internal needs.
The needs that don’t have words attached to them.

Only then can true healing occur.

Teaching asks so much of you every single day.
The planning, the behaviors, the emails, the constant changes… it adds up.

This group is one small pause in the week that’s just for you.
Simple art, gentle movement, and quick ways to decompress that you can actually use during the school day.

No pressure. No performance. No art skills needed.
Just space to breathe, reset, and feel a little ligher.

Sometimes the hardest part of parenting isn’t figuring out what to do.
It’s knowing when to step in.

A lot of times, parents start noticing little patterns over time.
The same worries coming up.
Avoidance that doesn’t really go away.
Big reactions that feel bigger than the moment.

And eventually that quiet question shows up:
“Is this something they’ll grow out of… or is this something they might need support with now?”

There isn’t a perfect moment.
Getting support early doesn’t mean you’re overreacting.
And taking time to observe doesn’t mean you’re failing your child.

What matters most is staying curious instead of scared.
Support can be gentle. It doesn’t have to be urgent or overwhelming.

Sometimes early support is just noticing…
and responding with care.

When you don’t fully understand what your child is going through, it can feel heavy. Like you’re supposed to know exactly what to do.

But you don’t need all the answers.

You don’t need to solve it in one conversation.
You can start by making space for what’s real.

Some pressure-free ways to check in:
* “I might be wrong, but I’ve noticed things feel tougher lately. How are you doing?”
* “I’m not mad or disappointed. I just want to understand.”
* “Is there anything I can do that would help, even a little?”
* “There’s no rush to explain. We can take this slow.”
* “Do you want to talk about it, or should we do something else together?”
* “Is there anything you wish I understood better?”

These kinds of questions don’t rush answers.
They build safety.

And safety is what helps kids open up, regulate, and trust that they’re not alone in what they’re feeling.

Hi folks. Sharing a new group offering from our Alpharetta office that may be helpful for teachers or school staff.

Our intern, Mairin, is starting a Teacher Decompression Group designed as a low-pressure space for educators to de-stress, decompress, and reset using gentle creative and play-based activities.

• For teachers & school staff
• Weekday and weekend options available
• $25 per session
• In-person (Alpharetta), virtual options maybe available as well depending on interest
• Sign-ups are now open

There’s a QR code on the attached flyer to register, and I’ll also include a sign-up link in the comments.

If you know any educators who could use this kind of support, we’d appreciate you passing it along.


Thanks so much!

Anxiety isn’t just “too many thoughts.” It’s your brain hitting the alarm button and your body responding like something is happening right now.

That’s why your heart speeds up, your chest feels tight, your stomach flips… even when you’re just sitting there.

A helpful reframe is this:
Anxiety is often a false alarm, not a prophecy.
It’s your protection system being loud not your intuition being accurate.

So instead of arguing with the thoughts first, try calming the alarm system:
💛 longer exhale than inhale (it tells the body “stand down”)
💛 feet on the floor + pressure (grounding through sensation)
💛 name what’s true right now: “I’m safe. I’m just activated.”

When your anxiety flares, what helps your body feel safe enough to think clearly again?

Kids move toward places where their feelings are understood, not dismissed.

Home doesn’t need to be quiet or perfect to feel safe.
It needs room for emotions.

Emotional safety can look like:
💛 listening before fixing
💛 responding instead of reacting
💛 letting feelings exist without shame
💛 slowing down when things feel tense

You don’t have to get this perfect.
You just have to keep showing up.

What helps your home feel emotionally safe?

Most parents replay their not-so-great moments at night.

The goal isn’t to never lose your cool.
The goal is to come back after.

Reconciliation teaches kids:
💛 mistakes can be acknowledged
💛 feelings can be named
💛 relationships can feel safe again

A hug.
A snack.
A quiet “We’re okay.”

These moments matter more than getting it perfect.
