Nostalgia is defined most often as “a wistful or excessively sentimental yearning for return to some past period or irrecoverable experience.” It is a multi-faceted and complex emotion, often described using the oxymoronic term bittersweet.

On our blog, Elizabeth Furbish, LPC shares more about the history of the emotion, outlines the benefits and consequences of engaging with nostalgic feelings, and offers a roadmap to ensure we are using this complicated emotion to our advantage.

Scroll through for highlights and be sure to check out the full blog post at the link below! 🧠🍃🥲

This Halloween, let’s remember that the “spooky” emotions we want to push away often carry the biggest clues about our needs and values. When we stop running from them and start listening, we gain direction, healing, and connection. Therapy can help you explore these emotions in a safe, supportive way.

Moments like this can leave many feeling unsettled — especially when the presence of troops and heightened policing adds to existing fear and uncertainty.

At Sage, we believe true safety comes from trust, care, and connection — not control. As our city navigates this moment, may we keep grounding ourselves in compassion and community.

Check in on your neighbors. Take breaks from the news when you need to. Breathe deeply. Care is not passive — it’s powerful. 🕊️

Join us on October 24, 12-1 pm CST with Zaire Griffin, LCPC. Free for the general audience, $20 for CEUs.

Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated September 15 through October 15. In honor of Hispanic Heritage month, Estrella Askren-Gonzalez, LPC, discusses the stigma and barriers the Hispanic and Latinx communities face surrounding mental health and mental health treatment.

One way Sage specifically works to mitigate barriers is by hiring clinicians, and folks on our intake team, who are able to provide therapy in other languages, including Spanish. Sage also offers the required paperwork in Spanish.

We aim to provide accessible and culturally competent services to as many folks as possible.

If you are in need of a Spanish speaking provider, head on over to our website below to schedule an appointment today!

This Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we hold space for the resilience of Native and Indigenous communities and recognize the importance of mental health care that is rooted in culture, history, and community healing.

Today is World Mental Health Day 💚

This year’s theme, set by the World Health Organization, is Mental Health in Humanitarian Emergencies. In times of crisis, mental health care is not optional — it’s essential. Whether it’s war, natural disasters, or displacement, communities need support systems that help people heal and build resilience.

We want to take a moment to offer ways to get involved and to provide resources that can help folks access necessary care. Together we can reduce stigma, share resources, and remind ourselves that mental health is a human right — in every community, and especially in times of hardship. 🌍💚

Our Women’s Processing Group is starting soon — and it’s more than just a group. It’s a place to reconnect with yourself, rediscover what’s possible, and be reminded that healing doesn’t have to happen alone. 💙

Led by Savannah Mudd, NCE, LCPC, this virtual group offers weekly support for female identifying people navigating life after a breakup or divorce. Join us on Tuesdays at 6pm and take that next step forward, together.

🍂✨ As the seasons shift, it’s natural to feel a little off balance—shorter days and colder nights can feel like a loss. But fall reminds us that change can also bring new comforts, cozy rituals, and little joys to look forward to.

We asked our clinicians to share their favorite fall things, and the list is full of pumpkins, candles, apple donuts, and crisp autumn air. 🍎🕯️🎃

💛 What about you? What’s one thing that makes fall feel special (or bearable!) for you? Drop it below—we’d love to hear!
