Holidays can be magical… until they start feeling like a test of perfection. 😅 If your brain kicks into overdrive trying to make everything just right, you’re not alone.

A crooked ornament or a cookie that’s “off” doesn’t mean the season is ruined. Little tweaks, breaks, and asking for help can make a huge difference.

At GHCS, we help people with OCD manage those holiday pressures so you can actually enjoy the season. Warm moments > perfect moments, always.

What’s one “perfect” thing you let go of this year to actually enjoy the holidays?

You know that feeling when you’re scrolling and suddenly it seems like everyone else has the “perfect” holiday? The cozy family pics, the trips, the matching pajamas… and you’re sitting there thinking, “Ugh, my life doesn’t look like that.”

Truth? Most of those photos are staged. You don’t see the fight before the picture, the pile of laundry pushed out of the frame, or the stress behind those smiles.

And honestly, your holidays don’t need to look like anyone else’s. The real, messy, ordinary stuff that’s what makes it special.

If scrolling is making you feel “less than,” that’s a sign your self-esteem needs a little TLC. That’s exactly what we help with so you can feel good about your life, not just compare it to someone else’s.

The holidays can be a lot with all the bright lights, loud music, crowded rooms, fireworks suddenly going off… and for someone with PTSD, those “fun” moments can actually feel really heavy. 😔

Triggers can pop up anywhere: smells, sounds, even certain memories and it’s okay if you need to step back or take a break. You’re not overreacting, you’re taking care of yourself. 💛

Some things that help: grounding exercises, taking mini-breaks, setting limits, and leaning on people who get it. Little steps matter.

What’s one thing you do to stay calm when the holiday chaos hits?

If the holidays feel too overwhelming, our therapists at GHCS can help you navigate triggers and find ways to feel safe while still enjoying the season: https://www.greaterhoustoncounselingservices.com/therapy-services/individual/ptsd-treatment/

We celebrated Hiba’s bridal shower today in our Katy office 💐

It was a great break in the day to gather, laugh, and celebrate such a special season in her life. We’re so happy for Hiba and wish her all the best as she gets ready for this next chapter. 🤍

Winter can feel so heavy sometimes, right? 😞 Short days, dark evenings… it’s easy to feel stuck in a funk. But even little things can help lift your mood.

Try stepping outside for a few minutes of daylight, moving your body (dance party in your living room counts 💃), or keeping a simple routine with sleep and meals. Little mindful moments like breathing, journaling, or just pausing can make a bigger difference than you think.

And don’t forget to reach out to someone you care about. Even a quick call or text can help you feel less alone. 💛

Feeling like the winter blues are too heavy? Our therapists at GHCS can help you find light, even on the darkest days.

What’s one little thing that helps you feel better during the winter?

We wrapped up the year with our annual GHCS holiday party, and it was such a meaningful way to pause and celebrate together.

Between the laughter, great conversations, and time spent reconnecting, it was a reminder that the heart of GHCS is our people. This team shows up every day with care, professionalism, and a genuine commitment to the communities we serve.

Ending the year proud of the work we’ve done and grateful for the team that makes it possible.

December is kinda like one big test of willpower, right? Between sales, sweets, and saying “yes” to everything… it’s easy to get carried away. One more gift, one more cookie, one more late night; it adds up fast. 😮‍💨

That’s why a few small reminders can go a long way: pausing before you buy, making a plate (not a pile), keeping some routines, and giving yourself grace when it doesn’t go “perfect.”

At GHCS, we help people learn how to slow down those impulsive moments and find balance that actually lasts, not just in December, but year-round.

What’s your biggest holiday temptation: shopping, sweets, or saying yes to everything? 👀

“Mom, please don’t go.”
“Dad, can you stay with me?”

If you’ve ever heard those words, you know how much they tug at your heart. And December (between concerts, family parties, and extra busy schedules) can make those goodbyes even harder for kids who already struggle with separation.

Here’s the thing: they don’t need picture-perfect holidays. They need extra hugs, calm goodbyes, and a parent who shows them safety even when it’s hard.

And if it feels like the anxiety is getting heavier than what you can handle on your own, our Separation Anxiety service is here to walk with you: https://www.greaterhoustoncounselingservices.com/therapy-services/children-and-adolescents/separation-anxiety/

You don’t have to figure it out alone. ❤️

What’s one little thing that helps your child feel safe when you have to say goodbye?

At Greater Houston Counseling Services, we believe mental health is not a luxury, it’s a right.

We see it every day: people who’ve been told their struggles aren’t “big enough,” or that therapy isn’t “for people like them.” But the truth is, everyone deserves care. Everyone deserves to feel heard, supported, and valued.

That’s why we show up the way we do. We are fully committed to creating safe spaces where you can lay down the weight you’ve been carrying.

On Human Rights Day, we’re reminded that dignity and well-being belong to all of us. And here at GHCS, we’ll keep fighting to make sure access to mental health care reflects that truth.

Because your story matters. Your healing matters. YOU matter.

💙 If you’ve been waiting for a sign that it’s okay to ask for help, this is it.

Feeling alone with your struggles? You’re not. 💛

Group therapy is more than just a safe space to talk: it’s a powerful place to connect, learn from others, and grow together. From practicing social skills to finding motivation and encouragement, every session helps you feel seen, supported, and less isolated.

We are actively building our schedule and will be launching new, targeted groups this Spring! Follow us to stay updated on how you can join a supportive community.

Holidays in a blended family can be… a mix. Two trees, three schedules, four opinions on dinner 😂.

But here’s the good news: it doesn’t have to be perfect to feel special. Sometimes the best moments are the silly ones, the small ones, or the brand-new traditions you make along the way.

And if things feel more stressful than joyful, that’s okay too. Talking it out with a family therapist can help take the pressure off and bring back the peace (and maybe even the fun).

Need a little backup with family conflict? We’ve got you: https://www.greaterhoustoncounselingservices.com/therapy-services/family/family-conflict/
