Feeling overwhelmed or stuck in your thoughts? Creativity can be a surprisingly helpful way to calm your mind. 🎨🧠

When you focus on a creative activity, your brain shifts away from anxious thoughts and into the present moment — a key part of mindfulness that can help ease stress and improve your mood.

This could look like:
🎨 Coloring or drawing
📓 Journaling your thoughts
🧩 Working on a puzzle
🌿 Gardening or caring for plants
🍪 Trying a new recipe
🕺 Moving your body with yoga or dance

What’s one creative thing you enjoy doing?

🧠💜 The mental load women carry — and why it’s real
The mental load isn’t just about doing tasks — it’s about remembering, planning, anticipating, and managing them. For many wives, it’s the constant background work that keeps daily life running.

📚 A typical day might include:
• Remembering appointments, birthdays, school deadlines, and groceries
• Planning meals, coordinating schedules, and managing household needs
• Checking in on everyone’s emotional well-being
• Problem-solving before issues even come up
• Balancing work responsibilities alongside home logistics
This invisible labor adds up. Over time, it can lead to cognitive overload, chronic stress, and burnout — even when it’s not easily seen or acknowledged.

💡 Why naming it matters:
When the mental load goes unrecognized, women may feel overwhelmed, guilty, or like they’re “failing” — when in reality, they’re carrying an unequal share of responsibility. Recognizing mental load as a mental health issue helps open conversations, redistribute labor, and support well-being.

💛 You’re not imagining it. And you don’t have to carry it alone.

🤝💜 Help close the gaps

While progress has been made toward gender equality, gaps still exist — especially in workplaces and communities. Women often face lower pay, fewer advancement opportunities, more criticism, and less recognition, even in similar roles.

📚 Closing these gaps starts with everyday actions:
• Support women in reaching their goals through mentorship and advocacy
• Listen — and make space for women’s voices to be heard
• Speak up when you see discrimination or bias
• Respect privacy and avoid gossip
• Create inclusive environments where everyone feels welcome
• Encourage continued learning, growth, and leadership opportunities

💡 Why this matters: Small, consistent actions help build trust, equity, and safer spaces where women can thrive — personally, professionally, and emotionally.

🧠🌸 Perimenopause and mental health: what to know
Perimenopause is a natural life transition — but the hormonal changes that happen during this time can affect both physical and mental well-being. It can begin as early as someone’s 30s, last several years, and look different for everyone.

📚 During perimenopause, shifting estrogen levels can influence brain chemicals like serotonin, which plays a role in mood. Many women report:
• Irritability or mood swings
• Increased anxiety or low mood
• Brain fog or difficulty concentrating
• Sleep disruption from symptoms like night sweats or hot flashes
Mental health challenges during perimenopause are often shaped by both biology and life context. Career demands, caregiving responsibilities, relationship changes, and stress can all overlap — making this season feel especially overwhelming.

💛 Why awareness matters:
Understanding what’s happening can reduce self-blame and help people seek support earlier. Tools like therapy, stress management strategies, and medical guidance can make this transition more manageable.
You’re not doing anything wrong — and you don’t have to navigate this alone

Meet your Provider 🌿
Rachel Breiholz, MSW, LGSW

I recognize the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for much of the therapeutic process and believe empathy, honesty, and openness are key to this important relationship. Everyone’s journey and story is different, and I trust that you are the expert in yours.

Therapeutically, I often pull from approaches including person-centered therapy, relational therapy, and skills-based approaches as relevant. I have completed training in inference-based cognitive behavioral therapy (I-CBT) and exposure and response prevention (ERP) for OCD.
