Ever feel like your thoughts are working against you?

Cognitive distortions are automatic thought patterns that feel true—but are often shaped by trauma, anxiety, or survival mode.

The good news?
They’re not your fault—
and they can be unlearned with compassion, insight, and support.

At Gemstone Wellness, we help you slow the noise, meet your thoughts with curiosity, and reconnect with your truth.

💎 You are not broken.
You’re becoming.

✨ Celebrating International Drag Day with Gemstone Wellness ✨

Drag is more than performance. It’s a powerful act of healing, resistance, and self-expression.

For many in our LGBTQIA+ community, drag is not just a costume—
It’s therapy.
It’s identity made visible.
It’s the safest way to say:
“This is me. And I deserve to take up space.”

At Gemstone Wellness, we honor the transformative power of drag in fostering resilience, boosting confidence, and creating spaces of collective healing.

Today, we celebrate those who dare to be bold, to be themselves, and to love themselves every step of the way.

Yes, we offer both in-person and telehealth therapy — and yes, it still feels human. 💛

Whether you choose to meet us face-to-face in the office or connect through your screen from anywhere in Illinois, therapy is about you — your feelings, your story, your healing.

Maybe today you’re in the mood for a quiet, private space. Maybe you want the comfort of your own home, or the freedom to talk from wherever you feel safe.

No matter how or where you show up, we’re here to listen, to hold space, and to support your journey — because care should always meet you where you are.

Meet Jenny (and the rest of us) from anywhere in Illinois — care that meets you exactly where you are. 💛

Because your feelings matter, and support should never feel out of reach.

We are always here for you. Healing can start today. 💙

🖤 July is BIPOC Mental Health Awareness Month 🖤

Mental health care hasn’t always been safe or accessible for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color.

Systemic racism, medical mistrust, and cultural stigma create real barriers — but healing is still possible.

At Gemstone Wellness, we offer:

🗣️ Therapy in English & Spanish
💸 Sliding scale options
🌈 LGBTQIA+ affirming, trauma-informed care
💻 Telehealth & in-person sessions across Illinois

You deserve therapy that listens, understands, and honors who you are.

📲 We’re here when you’re ready.

🧠 Today is National PTSD Awareness Day, and at Gemstone Wellness, we’re holding space for every story shaped by trauma.

PTSD isn’t one-size-fits-all. It can come from childhood experiences, systemic oppression, identity-based harm, or moments that changed everything — and it shows up in ways that are often misunderstood.

You are not “too much.” You are not broken.
You’re a human being responding to what you’ve lived through.

🌿 Healing is possible — and you don’t have to navigate it alone.
We’re here for you.

Yoga isn’t about twisting into the most impressive pose—it’s about coming home to yourself.

At its heart, yoga is a practice of reconnecting—with your breath, your body, and your inner rhythm.

In the pursuit of fitness or self-improvement, it’s easy to forget the deeper reason we move:
To feel good. To feel whole.

Let your practice be an act of self-love, not self-punishment.
Some days, that might be a full flow. Other days, it’s a mindful walk, a deep breath, or simply stillness.

You don’t have to earn your wellness.
You are already worthy of care.

At Gemstone Wellness, we recognize Juneteenth not only as a historic moment of emancipation — but as a deeply emotional marker of generational trauma and the enduring strength of Black communities.

The legacy of slavery did not end in 1865. Its effects live on — in bodies, in families, and in the systems that shape our daily lives.

As a trauma-informed clinic, we know that healing is not linear, and that true freedom includes the restoration of safety, voice, and dignity.

Today, we hold space for:
✨ The grief that remains unspoken
✨ The resilience passed down through generations
✨ The radical acts of rest, joy, and self-reclamation

To our Black clients, colleagues, and community:
We see you. We honor your truth. We are committed to being a space where healing is sacred and justice is part of the work.

May this Juneteenth be a day of remembrance, reflection, and restoration.

✨ This month at Gemstone Wellness, our clinical focus is on deepening our practice with nonbinary clients. We’re exploring how to create liberatory, gender-affirming spaces that honor each client’s unique experience, beyond the binary. 🌈

From confronting cisnormativity in therapy rooms to holding space for fluidity, we’re committed to ongoing growth and education, because our non-binary clients deserve nothing less than radically celebratory care.

💎 Healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. And neither is gender.
