Therapy helps us turn on the light in those dark corners with compassion, curiosity, and courage. 🌙

Relationship abuse is complex and often invisible to the outside world. It can take emotional, physical, financial, or spiritual forms — all rooted in power and control.

🌿 Feeling emotionally or physically drained can become our “new normal”... particularly when sick season enters the chat. But it doesn’t have to be.

Our latest blog explores what it means to move from burnout to balance, and how small shifts in focus can lead to lasting peace of mind.

Not every feeling of fatigue or lack of motivation is burnout or depression… sometimes it’s the discomfort of growing discipline in new ways. 🌱

Therapy isn’t just about processing pain; it’s also about learning to stay committed to your goals when it stops feeling exciting. Our culture often glorifies rest but forgets the love that’s found in consistent effort.

Discipline isn’t cold and distant, it’s care. It’s how you show love to your future self by doing the work today, even when no one’s watching.

In a culture that often glorifies independence and self-sufficiency, it’s easy to forget that our need for connection isn’t weakness but it’s part of what makes us whole.

Attachment science shows time and time again that true relational healing can only take place in the confines of a safe relationship. Past pain from relationships don’t just hinder future ones; but unless its attended to, it can create a great chasm in the “here and now” spaces.

Therapy reminds us that healing doesn’t happen in isolation. It happens in safe relationships and in safe spaces. The therapy room, the soccer field, or a cozy corner in a coffee shop- find space this weekend to allow for understanding, reflection, and genuine presence… your relationships & most importantly you, deserve it.

ADHD, autism (ASD), and high-energy personalities can sometimes look similar; but the reality underneath is often very different.

In our latest blog, we explore how these traits overlap, where they diverge, and why understanding the difference matters for meaningful support, self-awareness, and growth.

💭 “Just because someone isn’t right in front of you doesn’t mean the bond disappears.”

We talk a lot about object permanence in early childhood, but what happens when that concept grows up with us?

Dr. Hanna Cespedes’ latest publication explores emotional permanence: the idea that love, care, and connection persist even when someone is not physically present. Rooted in foundational theories from Freud, Bowlby, and Erikson, this concept helps us understand:

✨ Why some people fear abandonment even in healthy relationships
✨ How our early attachment shapes emotional security in adulthood
✨ Ways therapists can support clients in developing deeper relational resilience

Whether you’re a clinician, student, or simply curious about the psychology behind human connection, this piece is a helpful addition to your reading. 💙

✨ We’re so proud of our Therapists Eliza and Autumn, who spent last week at Emory University completing intensive ADOS-2 introductory training, one of the gold-standard tools for assessing and understanding autism. 💙

Their commitment to growing their skills means deeper insight, stronger advocacy, and more individualized care for the incredible clients on the autism spectrum that we’re honored to serve. 🌟👏
