We are so thankful for our local schools and teachers that work so hard to care for our Clients! We enjoyed sponsoring a celebration for teachers with December birthdays at Arlington Middle School.

From AMS:

🎄🍬 Sweet celebrations ahead! 🍬🎄

We sprinkled some peppermint cheer as we celebrated our December birthday teachers — and it was extra sweet thanks to our sponsor! From candy cane smiles to festive fun, these educators make our days brighter and our halls merrier. ❤️🤍

A huge thank you to Arlington Psychological Associates for helping us celebrate and spread the holiday cheer. We’re so thankful for your support!

Happy Birthday to our December crew! May your year be filled with joy, cheer, and plenty of sweet treats! 🎉🍭✨

“Imagining that we’re doing someone a favor by allowing them to avoid what might feel painful, is false. When we’re making the choice not to ask about a hard situation, we’re not being kind, respectful, or sensitive. In our silence, we’re requesting that the other person join us in our denial and disconnection; we’re asking them to abandon their experience, and we’re making parts of their experience welcome and other parts unwelcome. But saddest of all is that we're leaving them alone in a place where they most need our company. We’re not meaning to, but we're creating loneliness within the relationship itself.”

Loneliness is curable, and so much easier than we imagine.

How do you know when back-to-school stress is normal, and when it signals a deeper mental health struggle?

The new school year can bring excitement and worry. Knowing the difference between normal stress and real concern is key for families.

Therapy alters brain structure for the better! We’ve always known Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is effective. Now, brain scans show that transformation.

Research shows that cognitive-behavioral therapy not only eases depression symptoms but reshapes brain regions tied to emotion regulation.

Next time you find yourself in a “nothing fight” pause and ask what’s really going on beneath the surface.
