The new year often brings pressure to do more, be more, change more. But healing doesn’t follow a calendar.

As you settle into 2026, here are 3 gentle questions to carry with you:

1️⃣ What do I need more of? Not to succeed, but to feel supported.

2️⃣ What feels unfinished, unspoken or in need of care? Healing often begins by naming what still hurts.

3️⃣ How can I show up for myself — even in small ways? Maybe it’s making a therapy appointment, drinking water or turning your phone off for 30 minutes before bed.

You don’t have to do everything. Just start with something.

Therapy isn’t about fixing yourself. It’s about listening to yourself with care, curiosity and compassion.

At Family of Hands, we invite reflection that honors your whole self.

💙 We’re here when you’re ready.

They say today is Blue Monday, the “saddest day of the year.”

But at Family of Hands, we know grief, depression and emotional weight aren’t confined to one Monday. And they’re not signs that something is wrong with you.

This time of year can feel slow, dark, foggy, or heavy, but that doesn’t mean you’re failing.

It means you’re human.

Winter asks us to slow down. To soften. To turn inward.

Sometimes the most courageous thing you can do is rest. And if you're carrying more than you can hold, we’re here to hold it with you.
💙 Send us a message if you’d like to talk. Therapy is available in-person or virtually.

🎄 Just a reminder: We’ll be closed on Thursday, December 25 and Friday, December 26 for the Christmas holiday. We’ll be back on Monday to support you.

If you need immediate mental health support, call or text 988 for the 24/7 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline.

Wishing you warmth, love and moments of peace this holiday season.

To everyone moving through this season —

With quiet grief or cautious hope.

With joy that feels complicated.

With memories that ache and love that lingers.

With boundaries you’ve worked hard to hold.

With healing that’s still unfolding.

We see you.

You don’t have to feel merry to belong here.

💙 From all of us at Family of Hands, we’re wishing you gentleness in the days ahead. If you need support, we’re only a phone call away.

You can laugh and still feel loss.

You can decorate and still cry.

You can gather and still grieve.

Grief doesn't follow a calendar. And healing isn’t about getting over it. It’s about learning to carry it differently.

If the holidays feel heavy this year, know this: There’s no wrong way to move through them.

✨ You’re allowed to take up space. You’re allowed to rest. You’re allowed to grieve.

We’re here if you need someone to walk beside you.

As the new year approaches, many of us reflect on what we want to carry forward and what we’re ready to release.

The holidays can stir tender emotions.
If someone you love is hurting this season, they don’t need solutions — they need presence.

The most meaningful thing you can do is witness their grief.

That might look like:

1. Listening without trying to make it better.

2. Sitting beside them without rushing their healing.

3. Honoring silence when words fall short.

✨ Your quiet presence may be the most healing gift you give this year.

At Family of Hands, we often hear this in the weeks leading up to Thanksgiving:

“I should feel thankful...but I just feel sad.”

If this season brings grief, you’re not alone. The holidays can stir both joy and longing. Love and sorrow. Full tables and empty chairs.

There’s no one right way to feel right now.
Whatever your truth is, there’s space for it here.

🖐 If you need support this season, we’re here to walk with you.

Grief can show up as sadness. Or it can appear as anger, anxiety, numbness, exhaustion — even relief.

On National Grief Awareness Day, we recognize that loss is deeply personal. There is no one-size-fits-all response. What matters is that you feel safe to feel it.

At Family of Hands, our grief-informed counselors walk alongside children, teens, adults and elders navigating grief of all kinds. Whether the loss is recent or long ago, your pain is real — and your healing matters.

Reach out to learn more about how we support grief with empathy and presence.
