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!

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

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!

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.

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.

As Social Work Week draws to a close, it's importa As Social Work Week draws to a close, it's important to remind all of our fellow professionals to take care of themselves in this inspiring but draining work we do every day.
..
Social workers are under a high risk for burn out on a regular basis due to poor funding, lack of support and pressure to be a Jack-of-all-trades in many of the roles we play. We carry the trauma of our clients while also being mindful of full caseloads, performance measures and legal restrictions to the way we provide our services. ..
We need to support one another but also know the limits of our own scopes and our boundaries, to remind ourselves that we cannot lose ourselves in this work! Prioritize your self care. Be brave in asking for what you need. Put your health and wellness on the list of things you need to do so you can continue to do this amazing job for the communities you serve! ..
"I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And I will not let what I cannot do interfere with what I can do." - Edward Everett Hale

Being supportive and empathetic is all about meeting people where they are at - validating and acknowledging their experience and pain instead of jumping straight to 'making them feel better' or spinning their words into a quick positive.
