Please join us for Reiki Healing Day on Saturday, November 8th with Erin Bachus, MS, PLPC, Reiki Master.

Reiki is a gentle and grounding “space” or “tool” to benefit you in integrating some of the healing work you’re already doing in therapy, outside of your typical day-to-day busy-ness. Individuals struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, chronic pain, doing deeper healing work, and/or recently in crisis, that could benefit from intentionally taking some additional down time in a supportive, nurturing, and safe environment, are welcome to reserve a time-slot for a Reiki healing session. Sessions will be thirty minutes and donation-based. Please reach out to Erin at 417-473-3332 or erin@ozarkscounselingcenter.org to reserve a time slot.

Do you agree with this? I’ve personally found it to be true most of the time, but not always!

🌍 Happy World Health Day!🌍

Today, we celebrate global health and recognize that true health is about more than just physical well-being. Mental, emotional, and social health are equally important aspects of living a balanced, fulfilling life.

On this World Health Day, let’s take a moment to prioritize all aspects of our health: nurturing our minds, bodies, and relationships. Whether it’s through self-care, seeking therapy, getting active, or simply checking in with yourself, every small step you take towards holistic health matters.

Remember, your health is your wealth, and we’re here to support you on your journey toward well-being. 💙

We often avoid these topics, but let's look at them and have a real conversation about the end of life transition.

The dying do not need our permission.

🌿 April is Stress Awareness Month 🌿

Stress is a part of life, but it doesn't have to control your life. April is Stress Awareness Month, a time to recognize the impact stress has on our physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Whether it’s work, relationships, or everyday pressures, chronic stress can take a serious toll.

This month, let’s focus on recognizing the signs of stress and finding healthy ways to cope. Simple practices like mindfulness, breathing exercises, setting boundaries, and seeking support can make a world of difference.

Remember, you don’t have to manage stress alone. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, our team of counselors is here to help you navigate the challenges and find balance.

Good read! 👇

Today, given that the majority of us spend a substantial amount of our time at work, it is no surprise that work-related stress is listed as one of the most significant causes for stress in our daily lives.

Thoughts for this St. Patrick's Day

03/14/2025

🌿 March is Self-Harm Awareness Month 🌿

March is a time to raise awareness about self-harm, a topic often shrouded in silence and stigma. It’s important to understand that self-harm is a complex and deeply personal struggle, and it’s not about seeking attention—it’s a way people cope with overwhelming emotions, pain, or trauma.

During this month, let’s take a moment to educate ourselves, show **compassion**, and offer support to those who may be silently battling. If you or someone you know is struggling, please remember that healing is possible. Seeking help is a brave first step toward understanding, self-compassion, and recovery.

If you’re looking for support, our compassionate team is here to walk with you on your journey toward healing.

💙 You are not alone.
