Karli Baldus, MA, LLP Sharing with quick tips, tricks, research, mental health education, and opportunities available to help everyone become their best self.

As I continue to grow/learn, I find so many great resources, opportunities, and information that I would like to share with people. I created this page hoping to get the information out, but also create a dialogue to find out what is missing and more ways to be of service to the community. I plan to promote other therapist here, too, so that people can be aware of what's available for mental health and work towards becoming their best self.

Dysregulation isn’t defiance.
It’s a nervous system in overload.

Punishment may stop behavior in the moment, but it doesn’t teach regulation, coping, or problem-solving. Support does. Skills do.

Accountability still matters — and it looks like teaching, repairing, and guiding, not punishing someone for struggling.

This is an important conversation for all of us.

Scott Galloway recently shared sobering statistics:
• Of every 5 people who die by su***de, 4 are men
• Men are 3x more likely to struggle with opioid addiction and homelessness
• Men are 12x more likely to be incarcerated

Talking about men’s mental health does not mean minimizing women’s experiences. It means recognizing where support is missing and committing to raising everyone up.

At The Healing Village, we are continually asking: How can we better support all members of our community? We’re excited to welcome a new clinician starting in January and remain committed to expanding access, connection, and care.

If you’re passionate about being part of a movement to change how we support one another, we’d love to connect.

Today, we honor Transgender Day of Remembrance.
We pause to remember and uplift the lives of transgender and gender-diverse individuals who have tragically been lost to violence, prejudice, and hate.

This day is not only about mourning — it is about recognizing the strength, resilience, and humanity of the transgender community, and recommitting ourselves to creating safer, more affirming spaces for everyone.

Let’s continue to stand together, speak out against discrimination, and foster a world where all people can live openly, safely, and authentically.
