About 30% of people quit their New Year’s resolutions within the first two weeks.

If that’s you, you’re not failing — you’re human.

Real change is hard to do alone. Counseling can help you turn good intentions into sustainable habits, clarify what’s getting in the way, and build momentum that actually lasts.

✨ Firefly Counseling is here to support you — whether your goals involve mental health, relationships, stress, motivation, or personal growth.

You don’t have to wait for “next year” to start again.

✨ The holidays are often seen as a time of joy—but mental health doesn’t take a break just because the calendar says “celebrate.” ✨

For many, this season can bring added stress, grief, anxiety, or exhaustion. And that’s okay. Your feelings are valid, no matter the time of year.

At Firefly Counseling, we believe self-care isn’t selfish—it’s essential. Whether that looks like setting boundaries, taking quiet moments for yourself, reaching out for support, or simply giving yourself permission to rest, small acts of care can make a big difference.

You don’t have to navigate this season alone. If the holidays feel heavy, we’re here to help you find steadiness, hope, and light—one step at a time. 💛

✨ Be gentle with yourself. Support is available if you need it.

💚 SURVIVING THE HOLIDAYS 💚

1 week until Thanksgiving! Life moves fast — and the holidays only turn up the volume. Between travel plans, family gatherings, financial stress, and the push to “make it special,” it’s easy to overlook how much we might be carrying emotionally.

Take a few moments to slow down, listen, and check in. Ask how people are really doing — not just how the shopping or cooking is going. A simple conversation, a coffee together, or even a phone call can make a world of difference. Here are our tips to survive the holidays:

1. Set clear boundaries and don't be afraid to say "No"
2. Be flexible with our expectations and realize there is no such thing as a Pinterest perfect Christmas
3. Focus on your people and spending time with them without feeling like you have to cater to make everyone else happy.
4. Remember to be thankful for the people around you and count your blessings. Focusing on positives makes the negatives disappear.

As life gets crazier, small moments of care and connection matter most. If you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, pressure to be perfect, and need help prioritizing your own mental health, reach out and ask for help. 605-878-0376❤️

Firefly Counseling is getting into the Christmas spirit (a little early)! We set up our angel tree in the lobby. Come in and take a tag! Donations should be new and not wrapped. The Salvation Army needs them returned to them by December 13th. You can drop them off at the Salvation Army or return them to Firefly Counseling and we will deliver them for you! Let’s spread some Holiday cheer to those less fortunate! 🎄🎄

🍂 As the Seasons Change, So Can Our Mental Health 🍁

🌟 Just like fireflies light up the night, we're here to help you find light in the darker seasons. Whether you’re facing seasonal depression (SAD), life transitions, or just feeling a little off, our team is here to walk alongside you.

🕯️ Take time to care for your mental health this fall. Book an appointment, check in with yourself, and know that reaching out is a sign of strength.
