Listen…Count It All - JOY

Today a former client stopped me in Publix.
“Mrs. Belinda Gordon-Battle!” he said — hugging me before I could even respond.

The little boy I once supported is now an accomplished adult.
The light in his eyes? Still there — but brighter.
His steps? Steady and confident.

He shared how far he’s come.

If you ever wonder whether planting a SEED makes a difference… it does.

What’s bringing you JOY today?

Last month, I had the honor of presenting a Mental Health Moment to a private organization 💚🤍💚—an experience I expected to be meaningful within the room. What I did not expect was for that presentation to be transformed into a published news article for News.

The article officially debuted at the annual Society of Richmond Heights Brunch, amplifying an important conversation around mental health and wellness in our communities.

Grateful for the opportunity, the platform, and the continued commitment to elevating mental health awareness.

Count It All — JOY.

Day 3: UJIMA (Collective Work & Responsibility)
Healing is not isolated. Shared responsibility strengthens resilience.

Clinical challenge:
Offer support where you normally withdraw—or ask for help where you usually carry alone.

Therapy is collaborative work. Progress happens when responsibility is shared.

— Belinda Gordon-Battle, Clinical Therapist

Day 2: KUJICHAGULIA (Self-Determination)
Self-determination supports autonomy and identity formation—key components of mental health.

Clinical challenge:
Name one boundary, value, or choice you will intentionally uphold today.

At BGB Counseling Services, we support clients in reclaiming voice, agency, and authorship over their lives.

— Belinda Gordon-Battle, Clinical Therapist

Day 1 of Kwanzaa: UMOJA (Unity)

Unity is foundational to emotional wellness. Connection strengthens regulation, trust, and healing.

Today’s clinical challenge:
Intentionally connect with one person and practice presence—listen without correcting, advising, or fixing.

At BGB Counseling Services, we approach therapy as a clinical alliance—grounded in trust, cultural responsiveness, and shared commitment to growth.

Unity heals.
— Belinda Gordon-Battle, Clinical Therapist
