EMDR helps kids process big feelings and tough memories in a safe, playful way. 🧠💫

Through guided movement, games, and imagination, children learn to calm their minds and feel more in control.
EMDR can support kids coping with worries, nightmares, or past stressful events, helping them grow with greater confidence and peace. 🌈

It can be worrying when your child lies, but lying is often part of normal development. Kids may lie to avoid trouble, protect feelings, or test boundaries. The best way to encourage honesty is by creating safety and trust so they know the truth is always welcome. 💬💛

This October, focus on small acts of care that help your body and mind feel safe. 🍂

Create a cozy grounding ritual: Light a candle, wrap up in a blanket, and sip something warm. Allow your senses anchor you in the moment.

Step outside for a nature reset: Notice the colors, textures, and sounds around you. Even a few minutes outdoors can calm your body and bring you back to center.

Express your emotions creatively: Paint, write, or make music without worrying about how it turns out. Expression helps emotions move through you instead of getting stuck.

Honor your energy and set gentle boundaries: It’s okay to say no, rest, and slow down. Your body deserves time to recharge.

Reach out for connection and comfort: Text a friend, cuddle your pet, or spend time with someone who feels safe. Healing happens in connection.

Make time for small joys: Read something you love, take a slow morning, or treat yourself to your favorite drink. Little joys matter.

Which one are you starting with this week? 🍂

Meet Klarisa! ✨️

She is a Licensed Professional Counselor on our team who creates a safe, supportive space for individuals to explore difficult emotions and know they don’t have to face them alone. In session, Klarisa helps clients navigate anxiety-filled what ifs, trauma, grief, and low mood. She guides them in recognizing their worth, processing past pain, and understanding emotions as signals of deeper needs like being heard, understood, and accepted.

Klarisa works with children, adolescents, and adults, and specializes in child-centered play therapy. She offers a nurturing space where children can express themselves through play, their natural language. Whether a child is dealing with anxiety, emotional outbursts, or trauma, Klarisa supports them and their caregivers in building confidence, resilience, and healing. She draws from sand tray, expressive arts, EMDR, talk therapy, play therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS).

Outside the therapy room, Klarisa is a Target aisle explorer, taro boba enthusiast, and lover of all things ranch. She plays the viola, guitar, and cajón, and her current favorite movie is Inside Out 2. Her creativity and warmth shine through in everything she does, and we’re so excited for you to get to know her! 🌿

You may not feel positive 24/7, and that's totally normal! It may feel a little scary at first, which is important to acknowledge, but it can also be a sign that your body and mind are adjusting and in need of care.

What helps:

✔ Notice without judgment. Mood shifts are information, not a sign of failure.

✔ Regulate before reacting. Simple grounding steps bring safety back into reach.

✔ Lean into connection. Support from someone you trust helps your nervous system settle.

Healing includes these moments. Remember to meet them, and yourself, with compassion and care. 🌿

With the fall season approaching, one may notice subtle changes in their mood or energy. This is natural. The nervous system and circadian rhythms respond to light, temperature, and routine.

For some, the shift can bring increased anxiety or sadness. Preparing ahead of time can be especially helpful: Try creating a steady rhythm for your days, spending time outdoors when possible, and checking in with your body’s needs. Connection is also important, whether it be through friends, family, or community spaces.

Be gentle with yourself and ease into this season with care. 🍂
