Kindness supports mental well-being – and that includes being kind to yourself.

During Random Acts of Kindness Week, we’re reminded that care, connection, and compassion don’t have to be big to be meaningful.

Start small. Start today. 💛

February is Black History Month - a time to honor history, resilience, and the ongoing work toward equity and healing.

This Black History Month, and all year long, we recognize the importance of addressing mental health and su***de prevention within Black and African American communities.

Historically marginalized and underserved communities face unique barriers to mental health care, including stigma, limited access to culturally relevant resources, and systemic inequities. Creating space for open conversations and community-centered support is a critical part of reducing su***de risk and raising awareness.

We encourage you to explore and share resources from the American Foundation for Su***de Prevention that are created by and for Black communities, including education programs, podcasts, trainings, and national supports focused on mental health and su***de prevention: https://afsp.org/story/mental-health-resources-for-black-and-african-american-communities

✨ 2025, by the numbers – and by the people behind them. ✨

As we step into 2026, we’re reflecting on what 2025 held for Castlebrook Counseling.

Every session reflects a person choosing to show up, exactly as they were. We’re deeply grateful to have been trusted with so many stories, experiences, and moments of growth this past year.

These numbers represent connection, care, and the belief that mental health support matters.

Thank you to our clients, clinicians, and community for making 2025 a year rooted in compassion and commitment. We’re carrying that energy with us into the year ahead. 💜

Here’s to continued healing, support, and showing up in 2026.

Does parenting your teen feel like this?

💥 One small comment turns into a huge explosion
💥 They shut down and you don’t know how to reach them
💥 Every conversation feels like a power struggle
💥 You’re exhausted and starting to wonder if you’re doing something wrong

Here’s the truth: You’re not failing. You just need different tools.

"Parent Bootcamp: From Surviving to Thriving with Your Teen" is a 2-day, in-person intensive designed to help parents navigate big emotions, reduce conflict, and rebuild connection – using the same DBT evidence-based skills therapists rely on.

When: Friday, March 28 – Saturday, March 29
Where: Castlebrook Counseling (in person)

🚫 NO-vember Day 30: Health & Wellness Boundaries 🚫

Sleep isn't something you can "catch up on later" or trade for a few extra hours of work. It's a biological necessity that affects every aspect of your physical and mental health - your mood, focus, immune system, and ability to function.

Try this instead:

Protect your sleep like you protect important meetings. Set a bedtime and honor it. Create a wind-down routine. Turn off screens. Let tomorrow's tasks wait - they'll be there in the morning, and you'll handle them better when you're rested.

Rest is productive. Sleep is essential. Your body needs it, and you deserve it.

Welcome to the final week of NO-vember!

This week we're focusing on Health and Wellness Boundaries.

Your body sends you signals every single day. Pain, exhaustion, hunger, tension—these aren't inconveniences to push through, they're messages asking for your attention and care.

Today, we say NO to ignoring physical symptons because you're too busy.

That persistent headache, the stomach issues that won't quit, the exhaustion that sleep doesn't fix, the pain you've been brushing off - your body is trying to tell you something. Ignoring it doesn't make it go away; it often makes it worse.

Try this instead:

Take symptoms seriously, even when they feel manageable. Make the doctor's appointment. Get the rest you need. Don't wait until something becomes urgent or unbearable. Your body deserves attention.
