Do you believe in the healing power of teamwork, laughter, and the occasional office hallway dance party? Are you fluent in compassion, resilience, and have the superpower of listening without interrupting, validating without overusing “mhm,” and carry around an emotional support coffee? Then you might be our next team member.

We’re expanding our Dream Team (yes, it’s as magical as it sounds) because our clients are multiplying faster than our coffee supply. If you value growth, integrity, advocacy, and can juggle both clinical notes and mom sarcasm, we want you on our squad.

Side effects of joining us may include: increased fulfillment, spontaneous words of affirmation, and a deep sense of purpose. Apply now. Your future work besties are waiting.

Ps- this role will allow for someone to see other demographics of clients as well, but we very much need a child and family therapist. 💜

This week, our counseling team had the privilege of learning directly from local law enforcement about active shooter protocols. Their expertise and guidance helped us strengthen our emergency preparedness and reinforce our commitment to creating a safe, informed environment for both staff and clients.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with those who serve and protect our community, and we’re proud to take proactive steps toward safety, awareness, and resilience.

Thank you Officer Heim and Officer Higgins of Lower Providence PD! 🙏🏻💜

Thank you, Miko’s Place, for the incredible honor of receiving the Violet Crown Award. I am deeply humbled to be recognized by your board and to have had the opportunity to stand before your gala attendees to share a little of my story and why this cause is so necessary. I never expect recognition for the work I do, but your acknowledgment means more than I can express. Tina, and your entire team, I am proud to stand beside you as we continue this fight—for dignity, for healing, and for the basic rights every survivor deserves.

Thank you to my husband (Justin), my dad (Tom), my best friend (Janelle), and my butterfly gang (Shelley, Sara and Abby) for sharing in this moment with me and supporting me in this work. I love you 💜🦋🙏🏻🥹

To my daughter, this is and always will be for you. 🩷🥹

Shoutout to Brianna Ramirez, LMFT (PA/NJ) for making this and always making me laugh! 😂

Our Thursday costume for is Dream Team ✨. Our therapists are in our comfy cozies to promote the importance of rest in your life.

Rest doesn’t need to be sleeping. It can be sitting, reading or writing, stretching, or other activities that bring us a feeling of inner calm.

How will you rest today?

The spirit animal I chose is a wolf because wolves value listening to their instincts and intuition. Because the wolf knows the power of the pack, but also the strength of the lone path. Wolves howl not for attention, but for connection. Because the wolf doesn’t chase validation. It tracks purpose.

As a therapist, I support people in increasing their secure attachment, connecting with their internal needs and experience as a source of wisdom, as well as to create a life that feels meaningful to them, which seems to align with the values of wolves. 🐺

What would you choose as your spirit animal and why?

Hey Butterfly Gang!

Many of you know how deeply I believe in the power of education, especially as the first in my family to attend college. That passion to be both learner and teacher has inspired me to create something close to my heart: The Choosing Change Podcast. 🎙️

I’m thrilled to announce that it officially launches NEXT TUESDAY, October 28th! 🦋

Each week, we’ll dive into real, no-cap conversations with experts across the wellness world—from finances to fitness, mental health to mindfulness, relationships to career fulfillment. We’ll mix a little playfulness with a lot of heart, and sprinkle in some vulnerability too, because growth doesn’t have to be boring.

So grab your favorite cozy drink, settle in, and let’s choose change together. 💜☕️

Emotionally immature parents condition their children to seek approval instead of autonomy. As adults, many feel trapped in a cycle of building lives around what might earn their parent’s love and validation, rather than what truly fulfills them. In therapy, they often share a painful truth: they don’t know what they want, because their desires were never part of the equation. Here are some simple affirmations to give yourself permission to be the leader of your life.
