Therapy isn’t only about unpacking what’s hard. A lot of healing happens in the moments people are quickest to brush off.

The new boundary you set and barely mentioned?
The way you responded differently this time?
The insight that landed quietly but changed something inside?
I’ll pause you there, because that matters.

I’m the kind of therapist who notices and names those moments. The one who says, “Hey, that’s huge,” when you’re already moving on to the next thing.

The one who notices and celebrates your growth as it’s happening, even when you’re not sure it counts yet.
When an “aha” moment shows up, we sit with it.

When growth happens, we mark it. Because those moments are glimmers, too — signals that something is shifting, that your nervous system is learning a new way to be.

Healing isn’t just about surviving the hard stuff.
It’s also about recognizing your strength as it shows up — often more quietly than you expect.

And you don’t have to notice it alone.

Some days, glimmers are everywhere: sunlight through the blinds, a cozy hoodie, a kind text. Everything feels bright and simple, and easy.

Other days… everything feels gray, flat, or too much.
I know those days personally, the kind where getting out of bed feels like effort, where everything feels heavy, where the idea of “finding joy” feels impossible. On those days, even the things I normally love feel far away.

And if you’ve felt that too, you’re not doing anything wrong. Glimmers aren’t about forcing gratitude or pretending everything’s fine, especially when, for some people, their world is on fire. They’re about staying open to the possibility that something good might still be out there… even if it’s small, even if you can’t see it yet.

Sometimes the glimmer isn’t even the moment itself, it’s the act of looking for one. That tiny spark of curiosity (“maybe there’s something good here”) is your nervous system remembering hope.

And that’s real work.
Healing isn’t all deep breaths and candlelight. It’s the slow, quiet practice of noticing and trusting that the light always finds its way back.

As we close this little gratitude series, we’re celebrating the chapters still being written - the faces, seasons, and sparkling humans who carry Terrace House forward today.

This collage honors the part of our story that’s still being written
the clinicians who bring their hearts into the House each day;
the clients who trust us with their stories;
the community that continues to shape who we are.

Our alumni - out in the world carrying the magic forward

Thank you for being part of our unfolding.
Here’s to this chapter - and to all the magic we haven’t met yet. ✨💛

Between the early beginnings and the chapters still waiting to unfold,
there was a season when the House began to find her own voice.

A stretch filled with possibility and steady growth -
where our roots reached wider,
our rooms grew fuller,
and the House started to hum with a rhythm all her own.

Those middle years were both messy and magical,
a beautiful becoming shaped by time and experience -
by the moments we got it right,
and the lessons we gathered when we didn’t.

And to everyone who was part of that unfolding -
thank you.
Your hands, your heart, and your care along the way
helped shape the House we know today. 💛✨

As we step into Gratitude Week, our hearts are full.
We’re celebrating all the beautiful humans who have woven themselves into the ever-unfolding story of Terrace House–
every clinician, past and present,
every shared moment of healing,
every small magic that’s shaped who we’ve become.

When we look back at these faces, these chapters, this evolving tapestry of community, we’re reminded of something true at the center of it all:
Terrace House has always been made - and remade - by the people who gather here.
Every clinician. Every client. Every season of growth.
Your presence has changed us in ways that matter.

Here’s to the chapters behind us…
and to the shimmering ones still unfolding. ✨
We’re endlessly grateful to keep becoming - together. 💛

We live in a world where fear keeps us scrolling, striving, and bracing for the next crisis.

When I talk about glimmers, I’m not talking about fake positivity or pretending everything’s fine.

I’m talking about refusal, the refusal to comply with what harms us.

In times like this, noticing a glimmer, a small, ordinary moment of peace, isn’t naive.
It’s rebellion.

It’s choosing to keep your nervous system connected to safety and softness when everything around you feels sharp and loud.

It’s remembering that joy, laughter, tenderness, and connection are still available – and that caring for yourself and others is part of how we resist the burnout machine.

Resistance means not letting exhaustion, fear, or despair define you. It’s choosing to notice the moments that remind your nervous system you’re still here, still safe enough to breathe.

So when you stop to feel the sunlight through your window, or hear your child’s laughter and let it sink in, you’re doing something quietly revolutionary.

Every glimmer,  every small, ordinary moment that helps your body feel okay, is proof that softness still exists.
That joy still lives here.
That connection is still possible.

And that, in itself, is resistance. ✨

Glimmers aren’t just cute little feel-good moments.

They’re reminders, quiet signals to your nervous system that you’re safe enough to pause, to breathe, to exist without bracing for the next hard thing.

When we practice noticing glimmers, we’re teaching our brains and bodies that safety still exists, even when life feels heavy or unpredictable.

It’s not about ignoring the hard stuff; it’s about giving it something to lean on.

Every glimmer you notice, even for a second, is like adding a pebble to the side of the scale that balances out your triggers, stress, and overwhelm. Over time, that scale starts to shift.

This is the quiet power of awareness, of slowing down enough to feel the sunlight on your face or the softness of your favorite hoodie.

That’s why glimmers matter, because they remind us that safety and joy aren’t things we have to earn. They’re already here, waiting to be noticed.
