✨ A gentle reminder about gratitude: Gratitude doesn’t have to be loud, perfect, or attached to a holiday. Sometimes it’s simply pausing long enough to notice what is sustaining you right now: your breath, your growth, your people, your resilience, your healing.

The beautiful thing about gratitude is that it expands whatever it touches. The more we pay attention to the good, the more our minds learn to look for it. Even the smallest acknowledgment such as “I made it through today” can create a meaningful shift.

And if this season feels heavy, complicated, or different than years past, you’re not alone. You are allowed to honor your feelings and still make space for moments of grounding and gratitude in whatever way feels right for you.

Give yourself a moment of compassion today. You’re doing the best you can. 🧡

Today, we pause to honor the transgender lives lost to anti-transgender violence. This day is also about recognizing the weight of grief, fear, and exhaustion that many in the trans community continue to carry.

As a mental health professional, I want to affirm this:
Your identity is valid. Your life matters. Your safety, your joy, and your mental well-being matter.

For those who are grieving, hurting, or feeling unseen today, please know:
🩵You are not alone.
🩷Your emotions are real and worthy of care.
🤍There is space here for you, your story, your identity, and your healing.

For allies and loved ones, today is a meaningful reminder of the role we all play in fostering safety, compassion, and affirmation for transgender individuals every day.

May we continue to build a community rooted in dignity, respect, and care for every person.

🇺🇸 Veterans Day Reflections: We Are Not Invisible 🇺🇸

Today holds special meaning for me both personally and professionally. As a therapist, business owner, and woman veteran, I carry with me the lessons that service instilled: resilience, integrity, teamwork, and the deep value of community.

Women have always served with courage, leadership, and heart even when our stories haven’t always been visible. So today, I want to say to my sisters-in-arms: we are not invisible. Your service matters. Your strength, your story, and your continued impact matter.

To all who have served, and to the families who stand beside them, thank you. You continue to inspire the work I do and the space I strive to create for healing and connection ❤️🤍💙

👻 This Halloween, remember… not every mask we wear is part of a costume. Sometimes we hide behind smiles, busyness, or humor to cover pain or exhaustion.
Healing begins when we feel safe enough to take the mask off, be seen, be heard, and be accepted as we are 🧡

You don’t have to face the shadows alone.

✨ Behind the scenes at my desk this morning ✨

As someone who experiences seasonal affective disorder (SAD), my desk setup becomes part of my self-care routine this time of year. Here’s what’s keeping me grounded ⬇️

💡 Light box for mood + energy
☕ Morning coffee (aka comfort in a cup)
💧 Water + meds reminder
📱 My phone playing a motivational playlist 🎶

If you’re not familiar, Seasonal Affective Disorder is a type of depression that often shows up during fall and winter when daylight decreases bringing lower energy, sadness, increased sleep, difficulty concentrating, appetite changes, and more.

Here are a few things that can help:

🌞 Get sunlight or use a light therapy lamp
🚶🏾‍♀️Move your body. Short walks count!
💬 Stay connected with others
✅ Create routines to stay grounded 
🎧 Play music that lifts your spirit

This season, I’m leaning into small habits that make the darker months feel a little lighter 🍂

What do you do to care for your mental health during the fall and winter? 💭

✨ So proud to support my friend and colleague as she opened the doors to her beautiful new office space for her practice Lift My Soul Therapy Solutions!!! 🥳💐

There’s something powerful about community,
about showing up, cheering each other on, and celebrating milestones together. None of us do this alone, and moments like this remind me how important it is to build a circle that uplifts and supports one another 💙

Here’s to new beginnings, bold dreams, and the people who keep showing up 🥂

Today, we honor Indigenous Peoples’ Day. This is a time to slow down, acknowledge truth, and honor the wisdom, strength, and resilience of Indigenous communities of the past, present, and future.

As a therapist, I’m continually reminded that healing isn’t only personal; it’s collective. Indigenous teachings around community, connection to the earth, and storytelling have long reflected that truth.

Today also calls us to recognize the continued fight for justice, the preservation of culture, and the work of reconciliation that remains. May this be a moment not just of reflection and gratitude, but of recommitment to walk with awareness, respect, and care, and to amplify Indigenous voices in the ongoing journey toward healing and equity.

October is ADHD Awareness Month 🧡

ADHD isn’t just about being “hyper” or “forgetful.” It’s living with a brain that works differently. Sometimes it’s a challenge, sometimes it’s a gift, and often it’s both.

I’ve learned that ADHD can look like:
💡 Brilliant bursts of creativity and out-of-the-box ideas
🌪 A million tabs open in your brain at once
📅 Forgetting things even when you really care
🎯 Being super focused on tasks, but forgetting to eat
💖 Deep empathy and passion for what matters most

Awareness matters because too often ADHD is misunderstood or dismissed. The truth is, support and compassion make all the difference. If you or someone you love has ADHD, you’re not alone. You are seen, you are valued, and you have so much to offer.

Thank you to the for these graphics and spreading awareness 💖
