What I’ve learned as a new mom…

✨Matching Christmas jammies are a must.
✨Most things a parent does is from a place of deep, unconditional love, and also sometimes fear. Are we doing the right thing? Are we screwing them up? Will they want this later in life?

Man……this is hard. What a whirlwind, whiplash of an experience. Happy 5 months, baby. I love you so so much.

Arguably the best table at the Adam’s Middle school Mental Health Fair. Not only do you get to see these two faces, but skittles and fidget toys too!?! 😍

To say has made an impact on the South Bay mental health community is an understatement. Monica has worked diligently to provide athlete mental health services and psychoeducation to pretty much anybody who will listen! From school presentations to podcast guest appearances, it is impeccably clear that this practitioner leads with her heart and passion in this field. I’m so lucky to have a front seat while this incredible human changes lives, providing the antidote for teens and young adults who struggle the athlete lifestyle. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Can we get a round of applause for this incredible wife, mother, and associate therapist for returning from maternity leave? 👏🏼I’ve said this before and I stand by it, this baby hit the jackpot with you as a mother. And we all hit the jackpot to have you in the therapy field. The way you move through these beginning stages of motherhood with such intention and love is infectious. The amazing part is, that’s how you are in all areas of your life. Especially with the families you serve. We love you, Ariel!! ♥️♥️♥️

✨Rock spirals can represent the full expansion of human life and the healing, therapeutic process. We begin from a point, a center: expand, contract, differentiate and disappear into the center point once again. ✨This life pattern mirrors the inhalation and exhalation of each breath and the expansion and contraction dance of our life cycle. ✨Because our path is so imbued with this spiral movement, we often find our life returning or cycling back to similar issues and patterns. It is important and hopeful to note that though the same issues may reappear, we always have the opportunity to address them from an enhanced state of awareness.
✨This perspective is gifted via that innate dynamic flow, which continues to carry us along the spiral pathway.

✨The deeper therapeutic process supports awareness of these personal patterns and creates opportunities to review them with fresh eyes.
✨One can then, chose to accept, shift, change, let go, grow and continue the inner directed movement toward self-awareness and full expression of our unique life’s work and gifts.

Parents.....you're doing great!!!!

There’s a lot of pressure right now to make sure your child is learning everything in school, eating healthily, understanding how to navigate emotions, and so on. But you should know that this period of time will not make or break their future quality of life. During a crisis, it is much more impo...
