Real talk. I tried to take a nice professional loo Real talk. I tried to take a nice professional looking selfie to show my awesome 'EAT SLEEP SOCIAL WORK REPEAT' shirt, but it was like a siren call for my children to basically photo bomb for all they were worth.

You can see my absolute cringe of anticipation, preparing to get a stray toy car jammed up my nostril or an elbow to the teeth as it became open season to crawl all over me just to get in front of that camera. 30 seconds prior, they were happily playing.

Kids have that sixth sense don't they?

Trying to find those moments of beauty and 'bright Trying to find those moments of beauty and 'bright' during the dull winter blues? Even taking half a second to look up and spy that perfect moon in the evening sky can be enough of a reminder that there's gratitudes everywhere when you look for them. Not pictured: the absolutely bone chilling wind this view made me forget #mentalhealthmama #dailygratitude #daymoon #winterblues #takeamoment #mindfulmondays
Did you know you can now safely attend for in-pers Did you know you can now safely attend for in-person counseling? 

You might not see it, but behind this mask is the same smiling face of your compassionate therapist! This is the view you'll have when you attend for in-person sessions. With safety precautions in place, and screening at the door, I am happy to welcome my clients back into my office space with the following precautions:

😷 Wear a mask when entering the building and wear it throughout our appointment
πŸ“‹ Complete a health-screening at the door following current PHGB regulations
πŸ‘ Use hand sanitizer at the front desk before entering the office
↔️ Maintaining 6-feet of distance during entirety of our visit

The office is thoroughly sanitized and cleaned between each appointment, and appointment times are staggered to ensure no clients are meeting in the waiting area. 

Feeling so proud of our community and all that we are doing to keep each other safe! Stay positive and test negative friends!

Note the burnt toast, that I found sometime MUCH l Note the burnt toast, that I found sometime MUCH later after starting one task and forgetting entirely that I had started to make myself something to eat. Note the second set of slices, cooking once I realized I had abandoned my snack from 2 hours previous and was attempting to eat again.
.
This is the life of the easily distracted, the constantly multitasking, the mentally divided. Can you relate to that sort of day? Starting one task and then getting side tracked and forgetting entirely where you started?
.
Somedays I feel like I have 30 tabs open in my internet browser and my brain! 🧠
.
Human beings are awful at multitasking and yet we strive for that all the time.
.
Reminder to do one thing at a time and take care of your own needs. You'll probably burn less toast that way πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸžπŸ”₯ #mentalhealthmama #mentalhealth #easilydistracted #mindfulness #adhd #attentiondefecitdisorder #multitasking #multitaskingproblems
Given recent events and the encouragement from the Given recent events and the encouragement from the Grey Bruce Health Unit I will be moving exclusively to online or telephone appointments for the foreseeable future, to ensure we are doing our part to reduce unnecessary movement in the community. Please let me know if you feel comfortable moving to a video or a telephone appointment for any upcoming booked sessions!

How I'm feeling today! .. Sometimes it's terrifyin How I'm feeling today!
..
Sometimes it's terrifying to make the jump, to push ourselves to leap when we are afraid of whether we will land, or fall. But fear is a paralytic and we can stay stuck in our 'comfort' zones. Because they are just that - comfortable!
..
Pain and fear can be a precursor for growth. We can learn so much about ourselves or go past our self imposed limits and for once be more than we think we can be. You'll never know unless you try! ..
Prove yourself wrong today. Try something new. Risk a little. Make some magic.

Many people start their mental health journey with Many people start their mental health journey with many hopes and expectations about the process. We expect to lay on the couch and have our counselor give us some massive insight that will make everything click into place. But any seasoned therapist will tell you, progress is slow and full of peaks and valleys. ..
Social workers play many different roles in the health care system, from system navigation, case management, personal support to direct clinical therapy. And in every role, we are there to support you through the ups and downs that inevitably come when we start to take care of ourselves and make those necessary changes.

No matter what stage you are at, a social worker can help you along the way!
