The holidays can be beautiful… and a lot at the same time.
Family expectations, emotional labor, old patterns, busy schedules — it adds up fast.
My latest blog, “5 Tips for Managing Stress Around Thanksgiving,” breaks down practical, therapist-approved ways to protect your peace: setting expectations, grounding your body, limiting over-commitment, preparing for triggers, and giving yourself real rest.
If you’ve also been navigating anxiety, boundaries, or overwhelm this season, you’re not alone. I’ve been sharing several new posts to help you move through the holidays with more clarity, calm, and confidence.
✨ Check out the newest blogs on holiday mental health, social anxiety during fall events, and therapy intensives for first-timers. All created to support you through this busy season.
You deserve ease, space, and emotional safety, even during the holidays.

Please forward to everyone needs support. No one deserves to go hungry.

Today, Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee announced the launch of FeedTN.org a new platform connecting Tennesseans with resources and opportunities to serve their communities.

If you’re a SNAP recipient in Tennessee and looking for ways to fill the gap the Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) — administered by our Commodities Staff here at TDA — provides nutritious food to eligible individuals and families. If you’re SNAP eligible, you are automatically eligible for TEFAP distributions.

Distribution is done DIRECTLY from your local food bank:
Use our interactive map to locate the food bank serving your county here. Simply select your county of residence from the dropdown menu and call the corresponding food bank or affiliate agency. There are HUNDREDS of affiliates on the map, so make sure to select your county to see them.

Pause. Breathe. Check in with yourself and schedule that screening you’ve been meaning to. Early detection is an act of self-care. 💕

Grateful to be part of tonight’s Mental Health Fair—connecting with students, sharing resources, and breaking the stigma one conversation at a time. Here’s to prioritizing wellness and building a community that supports it.

Mother’s Day can hold so many emotions—joy, gratitude, grief, longing, and everything in between. Whether you’re celebrating, grieving, or somewhere in the middle, we see you. You’re not alone in how you feel today.

😀 Still smiling from this special moment—so honored to receive the CSI Iota Delta Community Service Award at Lipscomb!

Even before my time at Lipscomb and starting Red Cedar Psychotherapy, my heart has been in showing up for the community and creating space for healing. Grateful to be recognized for doing work I love. ♥️

Thank you, Chi Sigma Iota!
