Jars of Clay, A Sanctuary

Jars of Clay, A Sanctuary If you’ve been strong for everyone else but feel lost inside — you’re not alone. Hi there! My name is Monique Phillip, and I am the owner of Jars of Clay, LLC.

We help women heal from deep emotional wounds, reclaim their identity, and feel safe in their own skin again through compassionate & effective trauma therapy via telehealth. I’m a culturally responsive Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Colorado, and specialize in Trauma Model Therapy and Crisis Intervention. I provide a therapeutic approach that is warm, empathic, and non-judgmental. My style is collaborative and solution–focused. I tend to artfully weave elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, as well as experiential and existential approaches into treatment. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from the University of Houston and a Master’s Degree in Professional Counseling from Liberty University. I’ve been in the behavioral health field for over a decade, and previously worked with women of all ages in residential treatment, on probation and within the homeless community who all struggled with mental health, substance use and criminogenic issues. It has truly been the most challenging and fulfilling work I’ve ever done. Stirring up hope and helping women realize their inner power is a great passion of mine, which is what inspired me to open this practice.

If you’ve ever felt it — you know exactly what I mean. The twinge of anxiety and racing thoughts that follow even the smallest rejection.

It masquerades as love, but really it’s fear signaling that you have an unmet need. It's a protective alarm that your nervous system learned long time ago.

You are not broken. Your body is just letting you know that there are things that you need to address.

Safe relationships start when we can recognize the difference between fear and genuine love.

Here are 5 simple, doable ways to start replenishing yourself today:

Body: Trade 20 minutes of scrolling for a walk, stretch, or a real meal — your nervous system will thank you.

Mind: Do a 5-minute brain dump. Get the noise out of your head and onto paper — clarity comes after release.

Emotions: Name how you feel without fixing it. “I feel anxious/sad/lonely” is a start toward healing.

Spirit: Light a candle, breathe deeply, and sit in silence or prayer — even 3 minutes reconnects you to peace.

Relationships: Send one honest text that says, “I miss you” or “I’m not okay today.” Let people in.

💬 Which one do you need most today? Let me know below.

Mental Health Moment!

That critical voice in your head?
It’s not just random. It’s rooted in core beliefs that have been playing on repeat in your subconscious.

Over time, those beliefs begin shaping the path you walk, the choices you make, and the emotions you feel.

The Bible says, “Out of the fullness of the heart, the mouth speaks... and life flows.”

**So what if we stopped feeding the lies and started disrupting them before they take root?

Here’s the truth:
➡️ What you feed will grow.
➡️ What you starve will die.

Start replacing negative thoughts with words of life.

💬 Ready to break the cycle of negative self-talk and grow with women doing the same?

Mental Health Moment!

Sometimes the most healing thing you can do is pause... and look back.

Not with shame. Not with regret.
But with gratitude.

Gratitude for the version of you who kept going, even when the path was foggy.

Gratitude for the small wins you once prayed for.

Gratitude for how far you've come—even if you’re not yet where you want to be.

When you look back with kindness, you realize:
🌿 You’re growing.
🕊 You’re healing.
🌅 And there’s hope ahead.

Take a moment today to say thank you to your past self—and gently remind your future self: we’re going to be okay. 💯
