Burnout gets all the attention. But moral injury is what happens when the work doesn't just exhaust you β€” it puts you in conflict with your own values. It's common in caregivers, healthcare workers, first responders, and educators. And it requires more than rest to heal.

Teacher Appreciation Week looks different when you stop asking "do they feel celebrated?" and start asking "do they feel okay?"

What educators are carrying right now has a name β€” and it isn't burnout. This week, we wanted to say something more honest than "thank you for all you do."

Swipe through. Share it with someone who needs to see it. And read more about moral injury and how it is affecting our teachers on our blog.

It's world book day! Our staff loves to give and receive book recommendations. Here's what we are hyping up: a good mix of mythology, memoir, fantasy, philosophy, feminist classics and feel-good fiction.

Which of these have you read? And what would you add to the list? Drop your recommendations in the comments.

This week: the Boundary Waters lost its mining protections by one vote. The emperor penguin was officially listed as Endangered. Scientists confirmed the Atlantic ocean current system is weakening faster than models predicted.

If you're feeling emotional about these things, we hear you.

Eco-anxiety β€” defined by the American Psychological Association as "a chronic fear of environmental doom" β€” is a rational response to what is actually happening. So is anger. Anger at decisions made over the objections of hundreds of thousands of people. Anger at watching irreplaceable things get traded away. Anger that doesn't need to be redirected into a to-do list to be valid.

This is all grief. Our most recent blog post touches on eco-anxiety. See our stories for the link or visit rootsbrancheswellness.com/blog.

Have you considered that your favorite romance novels have been doing a little light therapy when you read?

Escaping into a story where someone's needs aren't too much, where softness is a superpower, where the door isn't closed and they feel seen? Hello, wish list.

Every trope has a fantasy underneath it, and that fantasy is usually pointing at something real. Something you want, something you've been told you can't have, something worth a closer look.

Swipe through, pick your favorite, and maybe screenshot the one that made you think. Then bring it to your next session because your therapist may have thoughts.

We're so excited to welcome Shanel Stevens, AMFT to the Roots & Branches team!

Shanel works with couples and individuals navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, and identity exploration. Her approach is collaborative and strengths-based β€” she shows up as a genuine partner in the room, not the expert with all the answers, and creates space for clients to reconnect with their own values and grow from there.

She wants anyone considering therapy to know: you don't have to have it all figured out before you start. Just show up β€” she'll meet you there.

When she's not in session, Shanel is the kind of person who always shows up for her people. She loves being outdoors, is happiest near the ocean, and recharges through travel. At home, life is good with her husband and their two dogs.

We're so glad she's here. Head to our website to read her full bio.

We are so proud of Jenna Wilkinson, ACMHC.

Jenna just earned her Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of the Southwest β€” and with it, her ACMHC licensure, making her the only Associate Clinical Mental Health Counselor on the Roots & Branches team.

"I loved that my program had me complete all of my courses prior to working with clients so I felt confident and able to apply all that I had learned."

That kind of preparation shows up in her work. Jenna brings a grounded, human-first approach to supporting clients through anxiety, depression, perinatal mental health, faith transitions, couples therapy, grief, and more β€” using modalities like ACT, DBT, IFS, and Gottman Method.

If you would like to learn more about Jenna and her practice, check out her bio on our webpage https://www.rootsbrancheswellness.com/jennawilkinson

Call or message to check Jenna's availability.

Congratulations, Jenna. We're so glad you're part of this team!

Today is World Health Day 🌍

This year's theme is Together for Health. Stand with Science β€” and we're here for it.

Here's what the science says:
More than 1 billion people worldwide live with a mental health condition. Effective, evidence-based treatments exist. And mental health is a basic human right β€” not something you earn, not something you wait until crisis to deserve.

At Roots & Branches, we use approaches that are grounded in research: EMDR, Gottman Method, ACT, IFS, and Lifespan Integration. These aren't trends on social media. They're what the evidence supports β€” especially for perinatal mental health and trauma.

Swipe through to see what the research actually says. πŸ‘‰

Standing with science means trusting that your struggles are real, that treatment works, and that you don't have to white-knuckle your way through the hardest seasons of your life alone.

If you've been thinking about reaching out, today's a good day to do it.
