I’ve been hearing a lot of buzz about back to school.

Some good, some bad, some just whatever.

There’s really no way to predict how the first day will go. It might go your way, or you’ll learn that life has other plans for you.

Either way, you will handle it.

I was really pumped to have a free 20 minutes today to take a walk, but after 5 minutes in, I was greeted with a big NOPE!

Things really can’t always go our way, but sometimes you just have to dive in and work with what you got!

What we resist, persists.

10 years ago today, I opened the doors to my very first office… with zero clients, an ugly brown loveseat, and a whole lot of hope. I had no idea what was ahead, but I just kept showing up.

Today, I get to do this work alongside the most phenomenal team (literally)—and I couldn’t be more grateful.

Thank you to every client who has trusted us, every team member who has joined this journey, and every person who’s cheered us on along the way.

What a crazy busy ride. Here’s to what’s next. 💛

Just cause. ❤️

Today isn’t just about fireworks and barbecues.

It’s about the people who believed in freedom enough to fight for it.

We remember the cost of independence.

We honor the courage it took to imagine a better future.

Wishing you a safe and meaningful 4th of July.

I am SO excited to proclaim that we are officially launching The OCD/ERP Help Desk!

The Help Desk will be led by our guy Connor as part of our commitment to providing gold-standard care for anxiety and OCD.

This is a dedicated time where any teammate can sign up for a consultation with Connor to deepen their understanding of ERP, get case support, or strengthen their approach to treating any anxiety disorder through ERP.

Our team continues to believe in delivering exceptional, evidence-based care—and this added layer of support ensures our team is equipped to do just that.

Connor has definitely proven himself consistently since joining our team, and I am fully confident entrusting him with this responsibility!

“Sha-la-la-la-la-la, live for today…”

I was raised on music like Let’s Live for Today by The Grass Roots. It played in the background of my childhood on the south side—at BBQs, in the car, around the house, on crappy garage speakers.

I knew the lyrics by heart, but I never really heard them. Not until a recent vacation.

It was one of those rare, quiet moments when things slow down. No notifications, no deadlines, no one needing anything. Just the sound of water, sun on my face, and a little music playing in the background.

That song came on, and for the first time, it landed.

“When I think of all the worries that people seem to find

And how they’re in a hurry to complicate their minds

By chasing after money and dreams that can’t come true

I’m glad that we are different, we’ve better things to do

When others plan their future, I’m busy loving you

Shah-la, la-la-la-la, live for today

And don’t worry ‘bout tomorrow, ay-ay-ay

We were never meant to worry the way the people do

And I don’t need to hurry as long as I’m with you

We’ll take it nice and easy, and use my simple plan

You’ll be my lovin’ woman, I’ll be your lovin’ man

We’ll take the most from living, have pleasure while we can

Shah-la, la-la-la-la, live for today

And don’t worry ‘bout tomorrow, ay-ay-ay

That line hit different this time.

Maybe it was the break from the usual chaos, or committing to not touch my email for 10 days!

Maybe it was being next to the man who quietly holds so much of our life together—the one who tolerates the extremely early mornings, the late nights, the working weekends, and the constant hum of being married to a therapist and a business owner.

As a therapist, I spend so much time helping others try to stay present—because the truth is, our minds are constantly pulled toward the past or the future.

And it hit me… sometimes it takes stepping away from the noise to actually absorb the wisdom that’s been in front of you all along.

You don’t need to have it all figured out.
You don’t need to carry tomorrow’s load today.
You’re allowed to find joy in the moment you’re in.

And if no one’s told you lately, you deserve that kind of peace.

Yes, that’s my mom in a wedding dress (on my wedding day), and yes, this cute bunny gave me a Mother’s Day card.

Gratitude.

Grief.

Quiet moments you didn’t realize were shaping you.

It’s for the people who raised us, held space for us, believed in us…even when we didn’t believe in ourselves.

It’s for the ones we call, the ones we miss, and the ones we’ve become.

For the love that shows up in packed lunches, silent sacrifices, bedtime routines, and hard conversations.

For mothering in all its forms—through presence, through memory, through paws or hands.

Today, we honor the mothering that shapes us—no matter what form it takes.

As for mom’s dress….she fell in love, and without hesitation, I said, “Get it, girl! The day isn’t just about me.”
