You've seen the feelings wheel, now explore the attachment wheel!
These styles- secure and insecure attachment- are rooted in early childhood experiences with caregivers and describe how individuals form and maintain emotional bonds in relationships. These styles manifest as different patterns of behavior in adult interactions. While all are valid, some can impact one's life in a way that compromises quality and enjoyment. Fortunately, many different types of therapy can help one to identify, challenge, and improve attachment styles. Call us today at (972) 439-5297 or email at info@246counseling.com for a free 10-minute consultation.

🇺🇸 On National POW/MIA Recognition Day 2025, we solemnly remember the courageous service members who were prisoners of war or are still missing in action.

Their bravery and sacrifice embody the highest ideals of duty and honor. We also stand with the families who wait and hope for their safe return, keeping their memory alive in our hearts.

As a nation, we reaffirm our pledge to never forget their sacrifice and to continue searching for answers until every one of them comes home.

Let us honor their legacy today and every day.

Your mental health is just as important as your physical health—because they’re deeply connected. 💚

Just like your body needs exercise, nutrition, and rest to stay strong, your mind needs care, support, and attention to thrive. When we prioritize mental wellbeing, we improve our ability to cope with stress, build healthy relationships, and enjoy life more fully.

Ignoring mental health can impact physical health, and vice versa. That’s why taking care of both is essential for whole-person wellness.

Remember: seeking support for your mental health is a sign of strength, not weakness. You deserve to feel your best—inside and out. Call us today at (972) 439-5297 or email at info@246counseling.com for a free 10-minute consultation.

You can read all about swimming—the strokes, the techniques, the safety tips—but you won’t truly learn until you get in the water and start practicing. 🌊🏊‍♀️

Healing and personal growth work the same way. It’s not enough to just know about change or understand it intellectually. Real progress comes from taking action, showing up, and sometimes stepping into uncomfortable spaces.

Therapy offers a safe, supportive environment where you can “get in the water” at your own pace, learn new skills, and build confidence. It’s okay to start slow, to stumble, and to keep trying.

Ready to take the plunge? You’re not alone—and we’re here to help you every step of the way. Call us today at (972) 439-5297 or email at info@246counseling.com for a free 10-minute consultation.

🇺🇸 On this Patriot Day, September 11, 2025, we pause to remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost in the tragic attacks of 2001 and to honor the extraordinary heroes who showed courage, sacrifice, and compassion in the face of unimaginable terror.

Today, we reflect on the strength, resilience, and unity that brought our nation together during one of its darkest moments. We pay tribute to the first responders, military personnel, and everyday Americans who continue to protect our freedom and keep us safe.

May we never forget their bravery or the profound impact of that day — and may we carry forward the spirit of hope, compassion, and patriotism that defines us as a nation.
