Today we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and remember why this day matters.

It’s not just a day off work; it’s a call to reflect on justice, equity, courage, and our responsibility to keep moving toward a more compassionate and inclusive world.

January can be heavy: cold weather, post-holiday bills, and big transitions can stir up exhaustion, apathy, or numbness. We can’t always choose the colors we’re given, but we can choose what we paint. Even small acts of care count. What would you like to paint with the colors you’ve been given? 🎨

Life will always have unknowns, and that can feel stressful. How we respond to uncertainty matters just as much as what’s happening. One of the most helpful things you can do is focus on what’s within your control (your daily routines, self-care, reaching out for support) and be gentle with yourself when things feel unpredictable. Simple practices like limiting news overload, leaning on trusted people, and taking intentional moments of rest can help steady your mind and body. 🧘

You’re allowed to feel unsettled— your reactions are normal, and you don’t have to handle everything at once.

You’re allowed to have off days.

Lately, I’ve been hearing from many people who are pushing themselves past their limits and ending up overwhelmed, burned out, or experiencing more frequent or intense dissociation.

Resilience doesn’t always look like “powering through.” Sometimes it looks like:
• having a good cry on the couch with your emotional support show 📺
• showing yourself compassion when your house is messy and you don’t have the energy to fix it
• canceling plans or choosing rest without guilt

Building resilience and preventing burnout often starts with pausing, acknowledging and accepting how you feel. From there, you can respond more intentionally to life’s demands, instead of just surviving them.

You don’t have to be okay to be worthy of care.

Entering 2026 with a little more self-forgiveness.
For the mistakes I made.
For the things I didn’t know yet.
For doing the best I could at the time.

As this year begins, it can help to pause and reflect:
What do you want to keep with you?
And what are you ready to let go of?
These questions are relevant not only now, but anytime you feel weighed down by the past.

You don’t have to bring everything into this year.
Some things can stay in the past 🤍

Happy New Year! 🥳

New year, same human 🧠
If setting goals or intentions feels encouraging, wonderful.
If it feels overwhelming, you’re not doing it wrong— you’re listening to yourself.

You don’t owe the new year a brand-new version of you.
Gentle is allowed.

As you scroll, you’ll probably see a lot of end-of-year highlights and “look what I accomplished” posts 📸✨.

If that stirs up feelings of being behind or like you didn’t do enough— pause 🛑.

If all you did this year was survive, cope, and maintain… that not only counts, it’s impressive with what you’ve been through.
I hope you can feel even a small sense of pride in the effort it took to keep going 🌱.

Last Monday of 2025.

Emotionally? I’m already in sweatpants, eating leftovers, and forgetting what day it is.

Be gentle with yourself; this week doesn’t need perfection, just survival. 😅

The holidays can be tender.
While some are celebrating, others may be quietly grieving— the loss of a loved one, a job, health, routines, or changes in relationships.

Supporting someone during this season doesn’t require fixing or forcing positivity. This graphic from Option B highlights meaningful ways to show up for someone who’s hurting. Reach out in whatever way feels most supportive for the person who came to mind as you read this.

If someone you love is struggling this season, your steady presence often matters more than having the perfect words. 🫂

If you or someone you know could use extra support, please reach out to us at New Hope Counseling, LLC. No one has to navigate loss alone.

As Hanukkah comes to a close, may the light kindled over these past eight nights continue to carry forward, bringing warmth, reflection, and hope into the days ahead. Wishing peace, rest, and gentle moments as the holiday concludes.

Regulation before reflection.🪞

If you’re a parent, you may feel unsure how to best support your child as they come home from school or after-school activities. Transitions can be hard, and every child has different needs for how they want to reconnect after a long day.

I’ve seen the attached post circulating online, and while I haven’t been able to locate the original research source to verify the specific claims (possibly attributed to psychotherapist Isabelle Filliozat), there is research showing a strong relationship between family routines and children’s emotional regulation. I chose to share this because the core message is an important one.

Before processing the day, many kids, and adults, need time to regulate their nervous systems. Lower stimulation, quiet moments, and space to decompress can help set the stage for meaningful connection later.

This is especially worth keeping in mind as we move into busy end-of-year schedules, school breaks, and holiday activities. Connection doesn’t disappear when we pause; it often deepens once regulation comes first.
