"People heal in connection with others."

Trista brought this quote home from her recent Perinatal Mental Health Advanced Psychotherapy Training — and it's stuck with us. In her words, it's already shaping how she shows up for clients: "making me more intentional about checking in with clients regarding outside support, connection to resources, and finding safety in relationships with friends, family, or with their providers."

Understanding this shapes what a therapist notices, what they ask about, and how they help clients build a life that supports their healing — not just a weekly hour that does.

Pregnancy and postpartum have a way of bringing things to the surface — fear, old trauma, grief, experiences you thought you'd moved past. You don't have to wait until after the baby arrives to address any of it.

EMDR is a trauma therapy approach that works by helping your brain process stuck memories without requiring you to talk through every detail. And it's well-suited for the perinatal period.

Our therapists have been doing additional work to deepen their training in using EMDR specifically with perinatal clients — because this season deserves care that actually meets you where you are.

Swipe to learn more about what EMDR is and what it can help with. And if any of it sounds familiar, visit rootsbrancheswellness.com to learn more about our team and whether we might be a good fit.

We are so excited to welcome Rachael Uchytil, CSW to our team of therapists!

Rachael brings a warm, trauma-informed approach to her work and a deep passion for supporting clients through some of life's most tender seasons — particularly in the perinatal space and beyond. She believes healing is personal and that there is no one-size-fits-all timeline for growth:

"Every person progresses differently, healing takes time, and the process is often not linear. Being patient and compassionate with yourself is a crucial part of your journey, and therapy is a safe space to explore, process, and grow at your own pace."

We are so glad she's here. Head to the link in our bio to read her full profile and learn more about working with Rachael.

The fox doesn't try to return to who she was before her kits were born.
Neither does the rabbit, the bear, the otter, or the beaver.

They rest. They eat. They trust their bodies. They stay close to their own.

You carry those same instincts.

You are allowed to do the same.

This one is for you if you're in postpartum — or not far from it.

We love celebrating our team's growth and Trista just completed the Perinatal Mental Health Advanced Psychotherapy Training, a 6-hour advanced training that moves her one step closer to earning her PMH-C certification.

Here's what she took away from it:

"One of my favorite quotes from this training was 'People heal in connection with others.' It was a pretty consistent theme throughout the training. I feel like this will impact my practice moving forward by making me more intentional about checking in with clients regarding outside support, connection to resources, and finding safety in relationships with friends, family, or with their providers.

One other thing that stood out to me is that with perinatal mental health, it's easy to get frustrated with certain behaviors, emotions, or thoughts. However, seeking to understand the drivers of that behavior — instead of getting frustrated with ourselves or others dealing with any type of perinatal struggle — significantly improves the healing process.

I want to be certified so I can deepen my understanding and expand my reach to this population of people impacted by perinatal mental health disorders."

At Roots & Branches, specialized training in the perinatal space isn't just a bonus — it's something we actively pursue. Watching Trista get closer to her PMH-C is exactly what sets this practice apart. We just want to take a moment to recognize Trista for putting in the work.

If the term "self-compassion" makes you roll your eyes a little, we get it. It can sound vague — or worse, like something that sounds nice in theory but is completely useless when you're actually in the thick of it. Therapist and author, Russ Harris, cuts right through that: acknowledge your suffering, respond with kindness.

You would do the same for a friend or loved one. Maybe it's time to do the same for yourself.

International Women's Day has existed for 115 years as a day to mark society's progress toward gender equality — and to remind us how far we still have to go.

At Roots & Branches, we see that gap closing quietly in our therapy rooms. We witness brave women sit across from our therapists and say something out loud that they have never said before — admitting to the exhaustion, the grief, the love that coexists with the hard parts, all while carrying the weight of feeling like they weren't measuring up as a wife, a mother, a woman.

When the quiet parts finally get said, something shifts. She begins reframing her expectations, allowing for more compassion, more recognition, and more surrender to what life has to offer — with fewer comparisons and no more shame.
Gender equality starts here, with a woman allowed to say how she feels.

Who decided what a woman's body should look like? When you start pulling that thread, the answer is uncomfortable. The beauty standards we've internalized weren't designed to make us feel good — they were designed to keep us insecure and buying. It's time to put down that story and write our own.
