Setbacks don’t mean you lack motivation. They mean you’re human.

Self-compassion supports persistence far more than self-criticism. If setbacks feel discouraging, therapy can help you return with clarity instead of shame. Contact us at LiveWell Psychology to learn more about how Dr. Jessica Tomasula can support you.

Motivation is easier when goals align with who you are—not just what you want.

Identity-based goals reduce burnout and increase follow-through.

Working with Dr. Jessica Tomasula though individual therapy can support you in building goals that reflect who you are becoming.

Willpower fades. Meaning lasts.

Goals connected to personal values are far more sustainable than goals driven by pressure or comparison.

If you feel stuck or disconnected from your goals, working with Dr. Jessica Tomasula at LiveWell Psychology can help you reconnect with what matters.

At the start of the month, many of us set intentions or resolutions with the best of hopes.

If motivation is fading now, it doesn’t mean you lack discipline. Motivation is shaped by meaning, progress, and how goals are designed.

When goals stop working, the problem is often the goal—not the person. Sometimes having support can make it easier to pause, reflect, and adjust with compassion. Reach out to us today at LiveWell Psychology to learn how Dr. Jessica Tomasula can help!

Resolutions don’t usually fail because of laziness or lack of willpower. They fail because they’re built on pressure and unrealistic expectations. Lasting change happens when goals are small, flexible, and grounded in real life—not perfection. When goals work with your nervous system instead of against it, they’re far more likely to stick.

If change feels hard this year, support can help. Reach out to us at LiveWell Psychology to learn how working with Dr. Jessica Tomasula can make growth feel more manageable.

January can feel strangely quiet after the emotional noise of the holidays. That quiet isn’t emptiness—it’s space. Space to notice what you’re carrying, to reestablish routines that ground you, and to listen to your inner world without pressure to fix it. Mental health resets aren’t dramatic transformations. They’re subtle returns to rhythm, rest, and connection. Let this be the year you move gently back to yourself.

If you’d like guidance or support during this transition, we invite you to get in touch with us at LiveWell Psychology and see how working with Dr. Jessica Tomasula could help.

Every January, many people find themselves judging their own emotions for not feeling “refreshed” after the holidays. In reality, even joyful seasons are stressful on the brain. Travel, social expectations, family dynamics, and financial pressure all add up. The most effective mental reset starts with permission—to slow down, to feel what you feel, and to rebuild structure gently. Healing doesn’t come from urgency. It comes from safety and steadiness.

If this resonates, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Contact us at LiveWell Psychology to explore supportive, evidence-based care designed to meet you where you are.

The holidays don’t just end when the calendar changes. Your nervous system needs time to come down from the stimulation, emotions, and disrupted routines. If January feels slow, heavy, or unfocused, that doesn’t mean anything is wrong—it means your mind is recalibrating. A mental health reset isn’t about pushing harder. It’s about returning to consistency, rest, and self-compassion, one small step at a time. 2026 doesn’t need a “new you.” It just needs a supported one. 🌱

If you’re looking for support as you ease back into balance this year, we’re here. Reach out to us at LiveWell Psychology to learn how therapy can help you reset at your own pace.

Today we celebrate the thinkers, listeners, creators, and quiet leaders. Introverts bring depth, empathy, and intention to the world — often without saying a word. Happy World Introvert Day 🤍

As we move into 2026, reflection doesn’t have to be about comparison or perfection. Instead, it’s an opportunity to honor the moments—big or small—that carried you forward.

If you struggle to acknowledge your wins without judgment, Dr. Jessica Tomasula at LiveWell Psychology can help you build supportive habits and a healthier perspective as you step into 2026—reach out today.
