You’re allowed to feel proud of how far you’ve come.

It’s easy to focus on what’s left to do or where you think you “should” be by now. But every step you’ve taken, every challenge you’ve faced, and every moment you’ve kept going matters.

Pride doesn’t mean you think the journey is over. It means you’re honoring the effort it took to get here. It means you’re recognizing your own resilience.

Give yourself permission to pause and look back at the ground you’ve already covered. You’ve come further than you realize. And that deserves to be celebrated.

💬 What’s one achievement, big or small, that you want to acknowledge for yourself today?

Your inner critic is not the voice of truth.

That voice that tells you you’re failing, not enough, or falling behind is often fueled by fear and old patterns, not reality. It speaks loudly, but volume doesn’t make it accurate.

The truth is that you are learning, growing, and doing the best you can with what you have. The truth is that mistakes don’t define you, they guide you. The truth is that worth isn’t something you earn, it’s something you already have.

You don’t have to silence the inner critic completely, but you can learn to notice it, question it, and choose a kinder voice to guide you instead.

💬 What’s one gentle truth you want to remind yourself of today?

You may be experiencing symptoms of perinatal anxiety or a mood disorder.

In her new blog, our therapist Morgan Mitchell, LPC, gently explores what perinatal anxiety and mood disorders look like, why they happen, and how therapy can be a compassionate space for healing, not just a way to “get through.”

You don’t have to feel like you’re doing it all alone. ❤️

This week is International Stress Awareness Week, created to raise awareness and improve how we understand and manage stress in our lives. 💛

Stress is a natural part of being human, but when it builds up, it can leave us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in survival mode.

Learning to manage stress involves building tools and support systems that help you move through it with care and resilience.

At WPA Therapy, we’re here to help you understand your stress, find healthy coping strategies, and create space for calm in your everyday life.

If you’re ready to take that next step toward balance, visit us at wpatherapy.com

Let’s keep the conversation open! Together, we can reduce the stigma around stress and mental health. 🌿

Healing from trauma takes time, care, and the right support. 💜

Trauma therapy provides a safe space to process painful experiences and rebuild trust in yourself and others. Different therapy approaches—like EMDR, CBT, DBT, and IFS—help survivors heal in ways that feel manageable, empowering, and deeply personal.

There’s no single path to recovery, but with the right tools and a compassionate therapist, healing is absolutely possible.

Small steps still count.

Healing and growth aren’t always dramatic. Sometimes progress looks like getting out of bed when it feels impossible, sending that one email you’ve been avoiding, or simply taking a deep breath when your mind is racing.

It’s easy to dismiss these moments as “not enough,” but they are proof that you’re moving forward. Every small step lays the groundwork for bigger change.

Be gentle with yourself. Notice the effort you’re making. Trust that even the smallest steps are carrying you toward where you want to be.

💬 What’s one small step you’ve taken recently that you want to celebrate?

Leaving an abusive relationship takes incredible strength. Whether the abuse was emotional, physical, or psychological, the healing process doesn’t end when the relationship does, and that’s okay.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, a time to honor survivors, raise awareness, and remind anyone recovering from abuse that healing is possible. With the right support, you can rebuild trust in yourself, rediscover your confidence, and begin to feel safe again.

Trauma therapy can help.

It offers a safe, compassionate space to process painful experiences and start moving from survival to true healing.

💜 You don’t have to face it alone. Read our newest blog by WPA Therapy to learn more about recovery, support, and hope after abuse.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month 💜

Domestic violence touches far too many lives, across every community. Healing from this kind of trauma takes time, care, and consistent support.

This month, we stand with all survivors, honoring their courage and encouraging everyone to do to help prevent violence and break the cycle.

At WPA Therapy, we’ve seen how therapy can be a powerful part of the healing process, offering a safe, supportive space to process pain, rebuild trust, and reconnect with hope.

You don’t have to walk this journey alone. Help and healing are always within reach. 💙

You don’t have to justify your boundaries.

A boundary is not a debate, it’s an expression of care. It’s how you protect your energy, your time, and your well-being. Others don’t need to fully understand or approve for your boundary to be valid.

It can feel uncomfortable at first, especially if you’ve been taught to put others’ needs ahead of your own. But honoring your limits is not selfish. It’s a way of saying “I matter too.”

The more you practice, the more natural it becomes to hold your boundaries with clarity and confidence. And with each step, you create space for healthier, more respectful connections.

💬 What’s one boundary you want to practice holding with more confidence this week?

Since 1992, World Mental Health day has reminded us that mental health is a fundamental human right. With nearly 1 in 8 people worldwide experiencing mental health or substance use challenges, it’s a gentle call to prioritize care, compassion, and understanding, both for ourselves and for those around us.

At WPA Therapy, we see how therapy can be a supportive step toward better mental health, offering tools to cope, a safe space to process, and guidance to help you thrive. Every conversation, every check-in, brings us closer to a world where mental health care is accessible, compassionate, and stigma-free.

Today, let’s honor our mental health by checking in with ourselves, reaching out to loved ones, and nurturing the ongoing movement for awareness and care.

You don’t have to face this journey alone. 💙
