Hi 🧡 May is Mental Health Awareness Month but this isn’t a “post once and move on” kind of thing.
Mental health isn’t a trend or a perfectly worded quote and we don’t take it lightly. We’re here if you need us, no pressure.

Happy Tuesday! This is a little ADHD tip because believe me, I am all too familiar with the shame that comes with feeling unreliable or careless. If it matters, don’t rely on remembering it later.
Move it out of your head right away.
Put it somewhere your brain will see again:
• a repeated reminder on your phone
• a visible list
• a calendar with a reminder
I’ve taken to writing things down immediately on a sticky note and posting it at my desk where I’ll keep seeing it. Setting a reasonable deadline for yourself helps too. 🧡

You don’t need to “earn” rest and if sleep isn’t fixing it, that’s not a personal failure! Rest is more than just doing nothing, it’s getting what your body and mind actually need 🧡 I hope everyone has a lovely Thursday and that you get the rest you need.

Child abuse awareness and prevention also means knowing what to look for and what to do next. It’s not always obvious but some signs can include sudden changes in behavior or mood, fear around certain people or places, unexplained injuries and withdrawal, anxiety or regression. If something feels off it’s okay to take it seriously. In NM you can report suspected child abuse to CFYD at 1-855-333-SAFE (7233), or contact local law enforcement if a child is in immediate danger. Therapists are mandated reporters and are required to take steps to protect kids by making a report. Awareness is more than knowing, it’s being willing to act. 💙

This is a post for Autism Awareness Month by our one and only Horace Hackney who specializes in ASD (particularly with people who’ve discovered they are autistic as an adult), as well as OCD, men’s issues, couples therapy and ADHD. He can help those with autism understand what works for them rather than feeling forced to fit in. (and always with a bit of humor) 🧡

Happy hump day! Some people think of therapy as someone analyzing every little thing you do or say but the reality is a lot more human than that. Therapists pay attention to these things not to judge you but to understand what feels safe for you, what feels uncomfortable and what you’ve had to do to cope. 🧡

For many people, struggling to communicate isn’t from a lack of effort but a lack of tools and support. Communication skills are something that a therapist can help you build. 🧡

You probably don’t have a lack of motivation but you’re running on depletion. At the same time, change can seem exhausting. Small things can be enough to remind yourself that you don’t have to wait until Friday to feel okay. (I need to take my own advice with this one) 🧡

Look at all these lovely faces. 😌 Behind every session is a real person who is listening closely, thinking carefully, and showing up with intention.
This is our team of therapists at The Balanced Path 🧡 (we have openings!)

Happy March!👋 In honor of Women’s History Month, we’re taking time to spotlight women’s voices from our team and reflect on what women’s mental health means to them.
The work of supporting women’s wellbeing is shaped by generations of advocates, clinicians, and communities who have pushed for greater understanding, compassion, and access to care.
We’re SO GRATEFUL to the therapists who continue that work today. 🩷
