With fall just around the corner (yes, in 4 days! 🤯), consider this your gentle reminder:

🍁 It’s okay if you don't feel like you're thriving right now.
🍁 It’s okay if you're still adjusting, holding on, or simply making it through one day at a time.

Personally, I have to remind myself of this often — especially this time of year. I always expect the start of the school year to bring instant structure, routine, and motivation ... but the truth? It usually takes weeks, maybe even months to settle in. And that’s normal.

This fall, let’s move with a little more ease.
Let’s make space for rest, reflection, and slow starts.
Thriving will come — and in the meantime, we continue to move day by day. 🧡

✨Something new and fresh is coming!! ✨

We have been busy this summer working on a refresh to our practice logo, website, and client experience! One of our values is ensuring the Austin and greater Texas community feel welcomed, supported, and informed when coming across our practice. As our practice has grown and we've deepened our approaches to play therapy and trauma informed care, we also want to focus on evolving our brand to better reflect who we are.

As we evolve, our goals remain the same...

🧒 Supporting children and families with care and compassion
🌱 Providing trauma-informed therapy for all ages
💡 Making our services, approaches, and values clear and accessible to everyone who visits us

And, a little fun fact, Mindful Connections Counseling officially opened doors in October of 2021, so next month extra special to us! We can't wait to share more with our amazing community!

September is Su***de Prevention Month and we want to remind our community that while it is not easy to talk about su***de, it is necessary to:

➡️ Have open conversations about topics around su***de.

➡️ Normalize going to therapy and reaching out to someone for help.

➡️ Remember that asking "are you having thoughts of killing yourself" or "are you thinking about su***de" does not make someone more likely to attempt. It can create a safe space for someone to talk about their thoughts.

➡️ Know that it's okay if you don't have the right thing to say if someone confides in you about suicidal thoughts. Being there to listen without judgment and aiding in finding resources can be life saving.

➡️ Therapy is one aspect of support, but other valuable resources include having a supportive community, crisis support, safety planning, and medication.

Hannah just returned to us from a short trip to the University of North Texas, where she dove deeper into child-centered play therapy with Dee Ray, Ph.D., LPC-S, NCC, RPT-S™. Hannah definitely values applying her training and skills to support families across Austin!

Hannah is still accepting clients and has after school and weekend availability. Sign up for a free consultation by using the link in our bio 💗

Parent sessions are such a valuable aspect of our work with children as play therapists! While our weekly play therapy sessions with children are invaluable, we know it’s important to extend our therapeutic work beyond the playroom and into your child’s everyday environment. Our parent sessions are not just about updates, but also about connection, education, understanding, skills, collaboration, and so much more!

This one is for all those actively working on themselves, navigating parenting, and of course for the SWIFTIES!

If you’re on social media, you’re probably aware that Taylor and Travis announced their engagement and it’s a pretty big deal. ANNND it is also a pretty big deal for you to tend to yourself...to the parts that need some softness, balance, and compassion. Because just like Taylor, you deserve to have your own version of a love story. To feel delicate without having to be broken and to know it’s okay to take a step back and breathe.

Boundary setting is a big topic, especially as therapists who are always advocating for our clients to do what feels healthy, positive, and important to them. This is a theme that admittedly, was not apart of my vocabulary for a long time. We are taught to respect our elders, authority figures, family members, etc. But when respect comes with symptoms of worry, anxiety, guilt, or feeling controlled, this is a sign that boundary setting is needed.

These are some important reminders for you on boundary setting. Remember, setting boundaries does not equal disrespect, it just means finally respecting yourself.
