Jessica Fosse, MS, APC, CRC, guides us through understanding when sadness is a normal response and when it signals something more persistent. She explains how the severity, impact on daily life, and duration distinguish situational sadness from clinical depression, and emphasizes seeking help when needed. 💬🧠💙

With a client-centered, trauma-informed approach, Jessica helps individuals recognize shifts in mood, explore underlying causes, and find practical paths to stability—whether through therapy, coping skills, or medical collaboration. 🧭✨

If you’re navigating sadness or mood changes, you don’t have to face it alone—Jessica is here to walk with you toward clarity and continued momentum. 🤝🌟

🎙️ Ross Mills from Atlanta Specialized Care dives into three common gender biases that discourage men from seeking therapy. 🧠💬 From the stigma of emotional vulnerability to the fixer mindset and the fear of judgment, these barriers can keep men from getting the support they deserve. 🫶✨ Ross explains how recognizing and challenging these biases opens doors to healthier choices, honest conversations, and real growth for individuals and the people who care about them. 💪🌱

🗝️ By acknowledging vulnerability, embracing support, and choosing to ask for help, we empower men to prioritize well-being—and break the cycle of silence. Let’s normalize therapy as a strength, not a weakness. 🗣️🌟
