    July 12, 2020

    Struggle is part of life, right? But y’all, I have to be real with you. So much is happening, that I am often overcome.

    Acceptance: Take it piece by piece.

    March 31, 2020

    Acceptance is like a jigsaw puzzle. Sometimes it’s easier to focus on a specific part of the whole, because the bigger picture feels too overwhelming.

    Online Therapy: What you need to know

    October 1, 2019

Work, childcare, health issues, and other special circumstances often keep people from seeking the care they need. Left unaddressed, the impact of significant stressors—life transitions, parent-child […]

    What is Self-Awareness?

    September 9, 2018

    It’s self-study. Self-awareness is paying attention to yourself and learning what makes you tick. It’s looking in the mirror and seeing yourself clearly, without judgment or expectation. It’s a powerful tool. When you recognize what you’re doing, thinking, and experiencing at any moment, you get to decide how to respond. Do you want to continue […]
