Do you agree?

Sometimes the holidays amplify what’s missing, not what we have. 😵‍💫

If gratitude feels out of reach, that doesn’t mean you’re ungrateful. It means you’re human. Try focusing on small moments: a quiet morning, a text from a friend, a warm cup of coffee, a walk outside.

Healing doesn’t always look like some fairytale version of joy. Sometimes it looks like getting through the day.

You’re allowed to feel more than gratitude this season. The holidays can stir grief, stress, and exhaustion. Give yourself permission to slow down.

If you’re struggling with anxiety or depression, our clinicians can help you find balance again, both through therapy and medication management.

"I thought the hardest part about my divorce would be telling the kids. Turns out the hardest part is figuring out who I am when I'm not someone's wife."

Divorce grief is complex because you're not just mourning the end of a relationship - you're grieving the loss of your coupled identity, your shared dreams, your family structure, and often your financial security.

Even if you initiated the divorce, even if you know it was the right decision, even if you feel relieved - you can still feel devastated. These conflicting emotions don't mean you made the wrong choice. They mean you're human, processing a major life change.

Divorce recovery involves rebuilding every aspect of your life: your daily routines, your social circle, your living situation, your financial plans, your parenting approach, and most importantly, your sense of self.

This process takes time - usually much longer than people expect. Research shows it typically takes 2-5 years to fully adjust to divorce, and that's with good support systems.

You don't have to navigate this alone. Therapy can help you process the grief, develop co-parenting strategies, rebuild your confidence, and create a vision for your new life that excites rather than terrifies you.

You're not starting over from scratch - you're building on the wisdom and strength you've gained from everything you've experienced.

Life transitions are sneaky. You think you’re just changing jobs, getting divorced, or sending your kids to college. But what you’re really doing is rebuilding your entire sense of self.

That’s why transitions feel so overwhelming, even the good ones. It’s not just about learning new routines or adjusting to different circumstances. You’re literally asking yourself “Who am I now?” and that question can feel terrifying.

When you become a parent, you’re not just caring for a baby - you’re figuring out how to be yourself AND a parent simultaneously. When you get divorced, you’re not just ending a marriage - you’re rediscovering who you are as an individual after years of being part of a couple.

Career changes, moves, loss of loved ones, retirement - they all trigger this same identity shift. The old version of you doesn’t quite fit anymore, but the new version isn’t clear yet.

This is completely normal, and it’s also why professional support during transitions is so valuable. Therapy helps you navigate not just the practical aspects of change, but the deeper work of rebuilding your identity with intention and self-compassion.

You’re not broken because change feels hard. You’re human, doing one of the most challenging things humans do - evolving while staying true to yourself.

We go to the doctor for annual physicals even when we feel fine. We get our teeth cleaned every six months as prevention. But we often wait until we're in crisis to think about our mental health.

What if we approached mental health maintenance the same way? A mental health check-in doesn't mean something is wrong with you. It means you're being proactive about your wellbeing.

Maybe you've been feeling "off" but can't put your finger on why. Maybe you're going through a stressful time and want to build better coping skills. Maybe you're doing well but want to understand yourself better.

All of these are perfect reasons to connect with a therapist.
💙Regular mental health check-ins can help you:
💙Process life changes before they become overwhelming
💙Build coping skills during calm periods
💙Catch small issues before they become big problems
💙Maintain the progress you've made
💙Continue growing and evolving

Your mental health deserves the same preventive care you give your body.

15% which means 1 in 7 people around the world suffer from a mental illness. 😳

That is not a small number! So why aren’t we talking about the impact of that more? Why is there so much stigma and shame surrounding this fact?

The line can feel blurry, especially if you're just learning about boundaries. But there's a clear distinction:

💙Boundaries control YOUR behavior. "I won't engage in conversations where I'm being yelled at, so I'll leave the room if that happens." You're deciding what YOU will do.

❎Controlling behavior controls THEIR behavior. "You're not allowed to raise your voice ever." You're dictating what THEY can do.

More examples:

💙Boundary: "I'm not comfortable with surprise visits. Please text before coming over, or I won't answer the door."

❎Controlling: "You can't go anywhere without telling me exactly where you'll be and who you're with."

💙Boundary: "I need alone time to recharge. I'll spend Saturday afternoons by myself."

❎Controlling: "You can't make plans without me. We do everything together."

Check your motivation: Boundaries come from self-preservation and protecting your peace. Controlling behavior comes from insecurity, fear, or need for power.

The monitoring test: If your "boundary" requires you to constantly check their phone, track their location, or police their friendships, it's control, not a boundary.

Healthy boundaries allow freedom within safety. Controlling behavior restricts freedom to ease your anxiety. One honors both people's autonomy; the other doesn't.

If you're genuinely unsure whether you're being controlling, that self-awareness is actually a good sign. Controlling people rarely question their behavior. Consider talking to a therapist who can help you identify healthy vs. unhealthy patterns.
