Happy December! It’s the last month of 2025! A chance to pause, reflect, and make this final chapter of the year truly count.

As we wrap up 2025, here are a few gentle reminders:
• Give yourself credit for how far you’ve come.
• Let go of what you no longer want to carry into 2026.
• Prioritize rest, connection, and emotional well-being.
• It’s okay to start small — meaningful change doesn’t need to wait for the near year.

If you’re hoping to end the year with more clarity, balance, or support, Ashkin Counseling is here for you!

While the holidays can bring joy and connection, they can also stir up stress, anxiety, grief, or pressure to “keep it all together.”

At Ashkin Counseling, we’re here to help you find calm through the chaos.

Ways to manage holiday stress:
• Set boundaries. It’s okay to say no.
• Keep routines where you can.
• Give yourself permission to rest.
• Reach out for support. You don’t have to handle it all alone.

Whether you’re navigating family dynamics, loss, burnout, or anxiety, our licensed therapists can help you approach this season with compassion and balance.

Call 561-806-9885 or visit ashkincounseling.com to schedule a session today!

Stress says: “If I just get through this week, I’ll be fine.”

Burnout says: “I don’t even have the energy to care anymore.”

Burnout isn’t just “a bad day.” It’s emotional exhaustion that builds over time and it’s more common than you think. If this hits home, know you’re not alone. Our therapists at Ashkin Counseling specialize in supporting professionals and students through stress, burnout, and beyond. Give Kelley a call at 561-806-9885 to get scheduled today!

🌿 Mental Health Tip of the Week 🌿

Let’s talk about mental rest — something we often forget we need.

You’ve probably heard about getting enough sleep, but what about giving your mind a break during the day?

✅ Step away from screens for a few minutes.
✅ Sit in silence, even for 5 minutes.
✅ Do a “mind dump” by jotting down everything swirling in your head.
✅ Go for a short walk without a podcast or playlist.

These tiny pauses help your brain recharge — so you can feel clearer, calmer, and more present.

💬 What helps you reset during the day? We’d love to hear it in the comments!

Are you getting your seven or eight hours of sleep a night — yet you still feel exhausted? Here’s why that could be happening, according to physician Saundra Dalton-Smith.

If you have seen me in therapy you have heard me say that "No" is a full sentence. Still so many of us struggle with putting that concept into action. This article talks about why its so hard for us to say no and what we can do about it.

A No must be true No, and a Yes must be a Hell, Yes.
