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.

I look at the date today with a mixture of shock a I look at the date today with a mixture of shock and gratitude and joy. Today marks the day I finally took the step to open my private practice. It feels surreal to recognize that a whole year has passed by since then, and I am flabbergasted by all the changes myself, and the collective world, have gone through. Transformation is hard. Change is frightening. But living authentically is worth it. Thank you to my friends, family and community for supporting this dream every step of the way!

๐Ÿ˜ฑ Ever get caught thinking about the worst case sc ๐Ÿ˜ฑ Ever get caught thinking about the worst case scenarios? It's a super common (but unhelpful) thinking habit and can make you feel even worse!

When you notice that you're focused on all the 'what ifs', and making mountains out of molehills, ask yourself this question ๐Ÿค”:
"What's MOST LIKELY going to happen?"

Sometimes this is enough to shift our thinking to focus on what's really going on - instead of all the terrible ideas our brain can come up with!

It's the start of your week, so here's a quick rem It's the start of your week, so here's a quick reminder on #mindfulmonday to practice staying in the moment! Breathe in, notice the air in your lungs, and then let it all out. ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ Even 2 minutes of mindful breathing (That's about 12 breaths) can have a huge impact on your mental health - it reduces anxiety, improves your mood, balances your nervous system and even helps you think more clearly!

So pause - breathe - and then go kick butt this week! ๐Ÿ’ช

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:

๐Ÿ˜ท Wear a mask when entering the building and wear it throughout our appointment
๐Ÿ“‹ Complete a health-screening at the door following current PHGB regulations
๐Ÿ‘ Use hand sanitizer at the front desk before entering the office
โ†”๏ธ 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!

Sometimes feels like you barely get a breath before the next wave of stress is taking you over. I haven't had the strength to clean, or tidy, or do any of the projects needed around the house and it's hard not to get down on yourself about it all.

One day at a time. Do what you can with what you have. Hoping this reaches whoever needs to see it today.
