In just two weeks, a new chapter begins for our family — my husband will be officially retiring, and after thoughtful reflection, I’ve decided to step back from full-time work. I’ll be focusing more intentionally on my private practice and creative projects that have long been on my heart.

While I deeply value the work I do and the incredible people I serve, this shift allows me to create more space for both family and self-care.

With this transition, I’m excited to announce that I will be accepting new clients starting June 30th.

If you’d like to learn more or inquire about insurance coverage, please reach out at wellnessofmindcounseling@gmail.com.

Here’s to new seasons, balance, and continued growth.

Are you a Mental Health Clinician and a Woman of Color in Private Practice?

Whether you’re full-time or part-time in private practice, we know how important it is to have a supportive community — especially one that gets your lived experience.

A fellow clinician of color and I are exploring interest in a free monthly virtual peer supervision + support group created specifically for women of color mental health professionals. This will be a space to share case insights, receive guidance, and feel supported in your work — without judgment.

We’re planning to launch in September and are currently gauging interest.

If this speaks to you, please comment “YES” below and send me a DM with your email address so we can follow up with more details.

We all have unconscious biases.

The problem isn’t that we have them…
.It’s that, unexamined, they can negatively impact our work. Whether bias impacts an individual client as it erodes trust and rapport, or whether it perpetuates larger mental health disparities, the fallout hurts everyone. Including you. That’s why we created this training with ethics and legal expert Dr. Kathryn Krase, JD, MSW, who has decades of experience working with thousands of clinicians to identify and respond to bias in their roles with clients and communities. In this training you’ll also learn: How Implicit bias can affect the authenticity and trustworthiness of clinicians The latest ethical guidelines related to implicit bias Hands-on techniques to challenge and overcome biases in your practice Micro and macro level impacts of bias on the development of mental health care And more! By understanding and addressing implicit biases, mental health clinicians can enhance the quality of care they provide, reduce disparities in treatment outcomes, and contribute to a more equitable mental health system!

There are so many myths when it comes to self-care:

Myth #1: Self-care is selfish. This couldn’t be further from the truth. When you take time for yourself and get sufficient rest and exercise, you feel more energetic and are less likely to lash out or project your negative feelings on others.

Myth #2: The effects of self-care are temporary. True self-care is finding not only what helps you unwind, but what recharges you for more than the length of a bubble bath. It is so important to find something specific that works for you.

Myth #3: Self-care is just for women. Women certainly have many challenges these days, but men are just as susceptible to stress and burnout. It’s for EVERYONE!

Myth #4: Self-care takes too much time. We are all busy, but self-care does not require a huge chunk of time from your busy day. Weaving self-care into your day and making it routine is important. It can be 5 minutes or longer.

Myth #5: Self-care is doing anything that soothes you. It’s important that self-care is something you enjoy doing. Self-care should support and promote health and wellness and should not be addictive or harmful to your body.

Myth #6: Self-care is the same for everyone. While we all have challenges and stressors in our lives, the way we each handle those issues is different. The ways we unwind and recharge also vary from person to person. Self-care is different for each person.

Prioritizing some time for self-care can go a long way towards helping us lead healthier, happier lives. Trying different things will help you find your own rhythm and know what works best for you. Make the time to do the things you love and that make you feel recharged. Before long, you’ll see the benefits of self-care in your life.
