Community is so important to us not only because we have the privilege of serving the people within it, but also because we’re a small, family-run business that shops, lives, and raises our children here. So grateful to for including us in this networking event for York County small business owners! Feeling thankful! 💛

Perfection keeps people stuck.

Freedom is what allows people to live. 🕊️

Therapy isn’t about eliminating every uncomfortable thought or feeling—it’s about helping you build a life that isn’t controlled by them.

Progress > perfection. 🌱

The warm weather this weekend was a small reminder that change can happen gradually — even after a long stretch of cold days. As the season starts to shift, it’s worth remembering that progress with OCD often shows up quietly, in small, steady ways.
 
It’s noticing thoughts without responding. 
Letting discomfort move through. 
Choosing not to engage with compulsions.
 
Growth can happen without certainty — and often does.

Today is , and we’re shining a light on PANS and PANDAS — conditions that can cause sudden and overwhelming changes in a child’s mental health and behavior.
 
For many families, the most painful part isn’t just the symptoms, but not being believed. Awareness helps children receive appropriate care sooner and helps caregivers feel less alone.
 
If this resonates, trust your instincts. Asking questions is part of advocating, and no question is too silly.

Anxiety isn’t caused by the presence of thoughts, but by how the mind learns to respond to them.

Everyone has intrusive, weird, unwanted, or even scary thoughts from time to time.

tends to grow when we:
• assign meaning
• treat the thought as a threat
• try to solve or push it away
• chase certainty
• argue with it

The work we do isn’t about getting rid of thoughts.
It’s about learning how to respond to them with more space, steadiness, and compassion. 💛

That’s where relief begins — gently, and over time. If this resonates, you’re not alone — support is available.

Okay, you’ve taken the step. You’ve decided it’s time to start therapy, you’ve reached out to Goody Counseling Services, and you’re scheduled for your first session. Hooray! We’re so glad you’re here.

So, what happens during your first session?

The first session is often referred to as an “intake”. This is a time for your clinician to get to know you and understand what brings you to therapy. We’ll ask a lot of questions — not to overwhelm you, but to build a full picture of your story and how we can best support you.

You may be asked about:
📝 Your medical and mental health history
📝 Family history and childhood experiences
📝 Current symptoms you’re noticing
📝 What you’re hoping to get out of therapy

Toward the end of the session, your clinician will go through a series of questions to determine the most appropriate diagnosis.

This can feel like A LOT, and that’s okay! 💛 We don’t expect to get through all of these questions at once. This appointment is just the starting ground, building your foundation for therapy and your relationship with your clinician.
