This week, I'm attending and presenting at the Crimes Against Children conference in Virginia Beach. As many of you know, I worked at our local Children's Advocacy Center several years ago. The work they do is truly that of heroes. They don't get the accolades, the discounts at stores, the trophies... yet the things they carry with them daily is daunting. They carry the stories of our most vulnerable, precious children. They do this because they have a passion for the careers they chose.

I've been out of the depths for about 6 years, and even simply attending some of these training sessions is very heavy. My mood is off, dampered. My sleep is restless. So please accept my apologies as I'm not at 100%. The people at this training do this work at minimum 40 hours/week.

But come Friday, I'm going to give this presentation my all. Yes, we have learning objectives, but my motive is something greater: I want the people in the room to understand how important they are to me, the victims they serve, and the world they impact. If one person leaves feeling valued, then it's worth it to me.

Trauma changes how you see the world — and how you see yourself. But healing allows you to write a new story.

At Anchoring Hope Counseling, our trauma-informed therapists help you feel safe, supported, and understood. Together, we work gently through your experiences at your pace — never rushed, never judged.

You are not your trauma. You are your resilience, your courage, and your healing. 🌱

We often talk about self-care — taking time to rest, exercise, and eat well — but how often do we care for our minds the same way?

Therapy is one of the most powerful forms of self-care. It’s not just for crisis — it’s for clarity, growth, and peace.

At Anchoring Hope Counseling, we provide a safe space for you to process, reflect, and strengthen your emotional health. Because when your mind feels lighter, life feels brighter. ☀️

DARVO: A manipulation tactic where an abuser or wrongdoer denies their behavior, attacks the person confronting them, and then reverses roles to appear as the victim.
D: Deny
A: Attack
RVO: Reverse Victim & Offender

If this is ringing a bell for current relationships, it's worth taking a second look at. If your concerns are repeatedly turned around to where you're the bad guy, the long-term effects can be detrimental.

Healthy relationships have give and take. This means at times you take ownership of your mistakes and work harder. It also means communicating your concerns assertively to foster relationship growth.

If you are stuck on the DARVO hamster wheel, we are happy to walk with you through finding a solution, whether individually, as a couple, or as a family. Learn more at www.ahchope.com

Healing doesn’t happen overnight. Some days you’ll feel strong, other days you’ll feel like you’ve taken a step back — but every moment counts.

At Anchoring Hope Counseling, we remind our clients that progress isn’t measured in perfection, but in persistence. Each small act of self-care, every time you open up in therapy, and every step toward understanding yourself — it all matters.

Be patient with your journey. You’re not starting over; you’re continuing to grow. 🌿

That’s a human being sleeping under that blanket in Bristol, VA. 😔 He is no longer there (this was earlier in the week), but this is a reminder that it’s going to get COLD going into Monday. 🥶 If you see a situation like this, please let authorities know so they can get the individual to one of the warm facilities available to them this evening.
Please also remember that pets must come inside tonight, too!! A plastic igloo without straw, sitting on the cold ground and no flap protecting the entrance from the elements is not warm enough.

You don’t have to smile through the pain or pretend that everything’s fine. Sometimes, life feels heavy — and that’s okay.

At Anchoring Hope Counseling, we understand how hard it can be to keep going when you feel drained or overwhelmed. But you don’t have to carry that weight alone.

Therapy provides a safe, judgment-free space to express what’s on your mind and heart. No pressure, no labels — just support, understanding, and hope.

Because healing begins the moment you stop pretending and start reaching out. 💙
