Here in Minnesota, winter asks a lot of us. The cold lingers, the days are short, and the world can feel loud, tense, and overwhelming. If you’ve noticed your energy dipping or your mood feeling heavier lately, you’re not alone, and you’re not doing anything wrong.

This season is a time of wintering: slowing down, turning inward, and conserving energy. Just like the earth rests beneath the snow, we’re allowed to rest too.

🌱 Maybe today’s win is getting out of bed.
🌱 Maybe it’s texting someone you trust.
🌱 Maybe it’s simply breathing through the day with kindness toward yourself.

None of that is “too small.” It all counts.

Light doesn’t disappear in winter.
It gathers quietly, waiting.
And so do we.
Brighter days will return, and until then, it’s okay to move gently, take up space, and ask for warmth in whatever ways you can.

Be soft with yourself. You’re carrying more than you realize. 💙

Meet our staff:
Hannah Fisher, MS

Hannah earned her Bachelor of Science from the University of Wisconsin–La Crosse and her Master of Science from Winona State University. She is a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor and is currently working toward licensure as a Professional Clinical Counselor.

Hannah chose to become a therapist because she believes deeply in the power of being heard. In a fast-paced and often overwhelming world, she values slowing down, listening, and truly taking the time to understand each person’s story. Her goal is to provide a space where clients feel supported, understood, and never alone.

Hannah works with clients ages 8 and up and has experience supporting children, adolescents, and adults. She provides care for a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, relationship challenges, and co-occurring mental health and substance use concerns -- always meeting clients where they are.

Hannah hopes clients leave sessions feeling heard, cared for, and supported. She strives to walk alongside clients through some of life’s most challenging moments and believes therapy doesn’t have to be scary. It’s about finding the right fit and building trust at your own pace.

Outside of work, Hannah enjoys spending time outdoors, going for walks with her dog, Kash, gardening, and staying connected with family and friends as part of her own self-care.

If Hannah sounds like a good fit for you or your family, she would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey.

As we step into a new year, we’re carrying one thing with us above all: hope. 💙

At Spero, hope isn’t just part of our name—it’s the heart of everything we do. It’s in every conversation, every act of service, and every connection we make with our community.

Whether 2025 was full of growth or full of challenges (or both), we want you to know that you’re doing better than you think. You’re not alone. And you are worthy of support, joy, and peace in the year ahead.

Here’s to 2026—another year of healing, helping, and showing up for one another.

Imagine a housing solution that doesn’t rely on a single dollar of government funding: just the strength and generosity of our community! That’s exactly what we’re building together in Steele County. Thanks to dedicated partners like the Housing Crisis Triage and Diversion Programming Team, neighbors like Natalie (who recently found temporary housing thanks to community sponsorships), and YOUR ongoing support, we’re proving real change is possible.

Want to be part of the next big step? Join us at the Community Summit (in partnership with Spero MN) on January 29 to share your voice, meet local leaders, and help craft bold solutions. Every gift this season: no matter the size: directly closes our just over $140,000 year-end campaign gap and fuels hope for families right here at home.

Let’s lift each other up! Donate today and make stronger than ever.

Earlier this month, our Spero team bundled up and joined the Annual Main Street Lighted Parade—and it was pure joy to see our community shining bright together.

Events like these remind us why we do what we do: connection, celebration, and showing up for one another. 💙

Thank you to everyone who waved, cheered, and shared a smile with us. We’re grateful to be part of such a vibrant and caring community.

“We realized we didn’t just need to reintroduce ourselves to the community—we needed to relearn the community, too.”

At Spero, we’re proud of the care we provide—therapy, recovery support, skills training, and more. But true impact starts with listening.

That’s why we’ve been spending real time in Dodge, Steele, and Waseca counties—learning what people need now, so we can show up with services that meet them where they are.

Because hope doesn’t happen in isolation—it happens in connection.

We all do better when we all do better.

As we head into the heart of the holiday season, this message feels especially true.

Whether you're offering a kind word, volunteering your time, or simply checking in on someone you care about—these small, generous acts help build a stronger, healthier community for all of us.

At Spero, we’re proud to be part of a network of local partners, neighbors, and changemakers who believe that hope grows when it’s shared.

Wishing you warmth, peace, and connection this holiday week.

During a season focused on giving to others, don’t forget to give to yourself, too.

You deserve:
☕ Moments of peace
💬 Space to say “no” when you need to
🌟 Joy without guilt

Prioritize rest. Protect your peace.
And know you're not alone.

The holidays can bring joy—but also stress, grief, or loneliness.

Let’s remember:
❤️ A kind message can lift someone’s day
❤️ A dropped-off meal can ease someone's burden
❤️ A donation to a local partner (like Community Pathways United Way of Steele County or The Salvation Army USA ) can change lives

Support takes many shapes. Every gesture matters.
