Here’s to a New Year! We’re all about vulnerability over here…and 2023 was both amazing and incredibly challenging! I am so grateful for all of my clients and colleagues who have helped grow ADJ Counseling and hope to grow even more in 2024!

Although I don’t like “resolutions” I do encourage thoughtful reflection and the setting of goals & intentions! So, I’m setting the goal to be more present on social media.

Whew...recently I have felt the pressure to be "productive". My to-do list is LONNNGGG and there doesn't seem to be enough time in the day to do "all of the things."

This has been my mantra the last few weeks..."Taking care of yourself is productive." We are not superhuman, even if we would like to think so. We need to recharge, disconnect, and take care of ourselves.

Time for a parenting check-in. Sometimes we fall into the trap of black and white thinking. We’re either awesome parents 🤩 or we are failing miserably 😞…

I’m here to tell you THATS NOT TRUE! You can be a great parent AND be utterly exhausted. We exist in the grey. How are you feeling as a parent?

Let’s take a moment to chat about anxiety…

We all experience anxiety to some degree. Sometimes it can be a helpful internal motivator, and other times can be debilitating. No one likes to worry or struggle, so we often want to get rid of our anxious feelings and the thoughts that accompany it. I always say feelings aren’t bad, and yes that includes uncomfortable feelings associated with anxiety. Using cognitive-based strategies to counter our anxious thoughts can be so helpful.

This is your reminder that your thoughts aren’t always helpful and can perpetuate those uncomfortable feelings.

Contact me today (info in the comments) if you’re interested in learning how to push through to a healthier mindset to have more control over your anxiety!

We are in a new month, but likely you are in the same grind…school, work, home life. How many of you are in that cycle of rinse and repeat?! I know I am!

Self-care is so important ✨and let me tell you, it is a necessity!!! These are just a few ways that you can refill your own cup so that you can step into your daily life more settled and ready to tackle the day!

Check out my blog post over on www.adjcounseling.com to read a bit more about what practical self-care can look like.

Before the day comes to a close I’d like to acknowledge . Today holds a particular significance for me as someone who has experienced two healthy pregnancies after a loss. Having two children didn’t erase the loss of what could’ve been.

We don’t often get the space to talk about the struggles we may face on the road to becoming a parent, and it shouldn’t be that way! If you’re on your journey to parenthood, have your rainbow 🌈 baby, or are just in need of compassionate non-judgmental space to come to terms with where you are on that journey, contact me today.
