🌿Marissa Here!!🌿

I am honored to work alongside a leader who gives her heart and soul to the community every single day. My boss has made mental health her mission. She does so by advocating, supporting, and uplifting those who need it most.

Her tireless dedication has touched countless lives, and I believe it’s time her impact is recognized on a larger stage. That’s why I’m asking for your help in nominating her for a community leadership award. Together, we can shine a spotlight on the incredible difference she makes and ensure her story inspires others.

Few individuals embody the spirit of selfless service as profoundly as she does. At her own location, she has built a network of support for more than one hundred clients, each relying on her guidance, compassion, and expertise. Yet her commitment extends far beyond scheduled appointments. She willingly answers crisis calls at all hours of the day and night, offering calm, steady reassurance when it is needed most.

If you’ve witnessed her work, been impacted by her efforts, or simply believe in the importance of mental health advocacy, please join me in supporting this nomination. 💚

Let’s celebrate her commitment, her compassion, and her unwavering fight for mental health.

Below is the link to nominate Lindsey!

✨ Hello everyone! My name is Marissa Schmit, and I’m based in Salisbury. Life is wonderfully chaotic thanks to my three beautiful (and delightfully wild) children.

I’m thrilled to announce that, as of October, I’ve stepped into the role of Secretary for Root Awakening. I’m excited to contribute and grow with this amazing community!

Mental health is something I deeply care about — not just today, but every day. Starting this new role is a reminder that growth, change, and taking care of our own well-being can (and should) go hand-in-hand.

Whether you're celebrating progress, navigating challenges, or simply surviving today! Your mental health matters. ALWAYS!

I’ll be at the office Tuesday- Friday! Call and schedule with Lindsey!

🍁 Happy Thanksgiving from Root Awakening LLC 🍁

This year, I’m extra thankful — not because life has been easy (it hasn’t), not because everything has gone according to plan (it definitely hasn’t), but because somehow, even in the chaos, there’s still so much good.

I’m grateful for every patient who trusts me with their story, their healing, their most vulnerable moments. You all remind me daily why I chose this profession and why I keep going even when my coffee is cold, my charting is behind, and my kids are asking for snacks like it’s their full-time job.

I’m grateful for the families who show up, the parents who try their best, the ones fighting battles quietly, and the ones who need a little extra support — you’re seen, valued, and appreciated more than you know.

I’m grateful for my community… the people who share my posts, send referrals, pray for me during the hard weeks, and cheer for Root Awakening as we grow. You’re part of this mission just as much as I am.

And most of all, I’m grateful for the reminder that healing isn’t perfect, life isn’t perfect, and neither am I — but we’re all doing our best, with humor, heart, and a little stubborn hope.

Wishing you and your families a Thanksgiving full of peace, good food, and at least one moment where you get to sit down without someone yelling your name. 🧡😂

With gratitude,
Lindsey & Marissa

Hey friends — I’m doing something new. 💛
For years I’ve poured into my work, my family, my patients, and my community… but I’ve finally created a space where I can share the REAL journey behind it all.

A space for:
✨ mental-health tools that actually help
✨ honest stories about rebuilding your life
✨ healing, growth, resilience, and starting over
✨ encouragement for anyone who’s felt overwhelmed, lost, or “not enough”
✨ reminders that being undone doesn’t mean you’re broken — it means you’re becoming

If you’re navigating your own healing, balancing a lot, or just trying to grow while life keeps life-ing… I’d love for you to join me here.

Follow my page “UndoneToUnstoppable” and walk this journey with me.
Let’s heal out loud, grow together, and create a community where nobody has to pretend they’re okay when they’re not.

If you’re already here — thank you.
If this speaks to you — I’d love to have you. 💛

Drop a 🌿 if you’re ready for a fresh start too.
Share this so someone else who needs it can find us.

🌿 Out of Office Update 🌿

I wanted to take a moment to let everyone know that I will be out of the office for the next few days due to a family emergency with my son. As a mom first, my priority right now is to be with him as he receives care and begins his healing journey.

In the coming days, I will begin working remotely from the hospital to continue providing support where I can. During this time, Marissa will be available in the office and is happy to assist with scheduling, refills, and any immediate needs.

I truly appreciate your patience, understanding, and continued prayers for our family. Thank you for allowing me the space to take care of my son while still doing the work I love. 💚

With gratitude,
Lindsey Allen, PMHNP-BC
