🌿 Availability Update | Root & Bloom Counseling 🌿

I currently have a few therapy openings available:

Tuesdays (bi-weekly): 4:00pm, 6:00pm
Wednesdays (weekly): 4:00pm, 5:00pm

I’m also excited to share that I am exploring adding weekly daytime availability on Tuesdays and Thursdays (1:00pm, 2:00pm, & 3:00pm) in the near future!

These openings are a great fit for adults navigating emotional overwhelm, burnout, identity shifts, pregnancy or postpartum transitions, people-pleasing patterns, or those wanting more grounded, values-based support. My work is trauma-informed, client centered, and rooted in ACT, self-compassion, and emotional safety.

If one of these times feels aligned, or if you’d like to be notified when new openings are added, feel free to reach out directly or submit an appointment request at www.rootnbloomcounseling.com 🤍

May today be gentle on your nervous system, soft on your expectations, and spacious enough to breathe.

If this season brings joy, soak it in.

If it brings grief, overwhelm, or complicated feelings, this season is asking for more softness, not fixing.

You are allowed to move slowly.
You are allowed to rest.
You are allowed to feel exactly what you feel.

Wishing you moments of warmth, grounding, and connection today however Christmas looks for you.

Seen. Soft. Still growing. 🎄

🎄Christmas Eve can feel magical…🎄

and tender…
and overstimulating…
and emotional…
sometimes all at once.

If today brings joy and grief, excitement and exhaustion, closeness and the urge to disappear for five minutes, you’re not doing it wrong.

Holidays tend to touch old memories, family dynamics, nervous systems, and expectations all at the same time.

So if you need to move slower tonight, say no to something, step outside for air, or lower the bar a little, consider that part of the celebration too.

Wishing you a Christmas Eve that feels gentle, grounded, and just human enough. 🤍

🌿Overwhelm & The Nervous System🌿

Overwhelm does not mean you are failing.
It means your nervous system has hit capacity.

It can show up as:
Irritability
Crying easily
Shutdown
Overthinking
Panic
Avoidance
Feeling tired but wired

You deserve support.
You deserve rest.
And you deserve compassion for what you have been carrying.

✨Why Transitions Feel So Hard✨

Transitions can feel heavy, even when they’re good.

Your nervous system is wired for predictability, so changes in routine, identity, or expectations can register as stress before your mind catches up.

If you notice anxiety, irritability, big emotions, or a tendency to shut down during transitions, it doesn’t mean you’re dramatic or failing. It means your body is adjusting to something new.

You deserve patience while you find your footing.

You deserve support while your system learns it’s safe again.

🌿Therapy With Me🌿

Therapy with me is not about perfection.

It is not about being fixed. It is not about being judged or analyzed from a distance.

It is a space where you can talk honestly, feel deeply, understand your patterns, and learn to regulate your body and emotions.

It is relational, grounding, and emotionally focused.

You get to be human here.

If you have been wanting a talk based, trauma informed therapist, I am here.

A gentle reminder for the part of you that learned to survive before it ever felt safe.

Your reactions aren’t random.
Your overwhelm isn’t a flaw.
And your big feelings aren’t “too much.”

So often, what shows up in adulthood is a younger part of us asking for something it didn’t get back then: safety, rest, comfort, being taken seriously, being heard.

Healing doesn’t mean digging everything up all at once. It starts smaller than that.
Noticing. Pausing. Responding with a little more softness than you were taught.

You don’t have to reparent perfectly.
You just have to show up differently than before.
That’s enough to begin.

12/13/2025

🌿 If you’ve been looking for a space where overwhelm is understood…

🌿 Where trauma patterns make sense…

🌿 Where your emotional intensity isn’t “too much”…

🌿 And where motherhood and family dynamics are held with care…

You’re in the right place.

This is the kind of work I love.
Supporting people through the heavy things, helping them feel steady in their bodies again, making room for softness, clarity, and breath.

You deserve support that feels connecting and grounding.

Whether that support is here, in your community, or in a relationship that finally feels safe.

You are worthy and deserving of this.

🌿You Were Not Meant to Hold Everything Alone🌿

Sometimes we don’t even notice how much we’re carrying…
until our body starts whispering, “this is too much.”

Maybe it shows up as irritability.
Or shutting down.
Or feeling like one more decision might actually break you.

And the wild thing?
Most of us learned to do it alone.
Because we had to.
Because we didn’t want to be a burden.
Because someone once taught us that needing help was “too much.”

But here’s the truth:
Being overwhelmed doesn’t mean you’re failing.
It means you’ve been holding far more than one nervous system was ever meant to carry.

You don’t have to keep surviving on empty.
You get to reach.
You get to soften.
You get to take support that actually steadies you instead of stretching you thinner.

You were never meant to hold everything alone...and you don’t have to anymore.
One small ask. One shared load. One moment of letting someone in.
That is where things start to shift. Where the healing begins.

💥Let’s Talk About Mom Rage💥

Mom rage is not about being angry.

It is about being overwhelmed, overstimulated, and pushed beyond your nervous system’s capacity.

Mom rage shows up when your senses are overloaded, when you are spread thin, when your needs have gone unmet for too long, and when emotional labor is nonstop.

You are not failing.
You are not broken.
Your nervous system is tired.
And you deserve support too.

If you have been experiencing this, you are not alone.

✨The nervous system is not dramatic or sensitive.✨

It is protective.

When your body reacts harder or faster than the situation seems to call for, it is usually responding to past patterns, not present danger.

Trauma tends to shows up in the body this way. It often appears as sensations long before it appears in thoughts.

• A sudden jolt of panic.
• Your stomach dropping.
• Feeling frozen or foggy.
• Shutting down in conflict.
• Getting irritable without knowing why.

These responses are NOT evidence that you are overreacting or broken. They are evidence that your body learned how to keep you safe in ways you have not had a chance to unlearn yet.

Healing is not about forcing yourself to move on.

It is about giving your body new experiences of safety through slow breaths, supportive relationships, grounding cues, and moments where your system realizes it does not have to brace anymore.

Remember to be gentle and kind with yourself.
