The Anchor Clinic • Telemental Health Services

09/29/2025

Eight years ago today, The Anchor Clinic opened its doors and welcomed our first official member of the Anchor Family to continue their healing journey. Hundreds of patients later, “thank you” simply doesn’t express the gratitude I feel adequately. The gratitude and honor that comes with being allowed to sit in the valleys, celebrate the wins, mourn the losses, and help navigate all the twists and turns of life along side some of the most resilient, incredible, extraordinary people I have ever known.

The number 8 is deeply personal to me. Not only because of my or my daughter’s August birthday, along with various heartbreaks and struggles in Augusts past, but the number eight also symbolizes new beginnings, rebirth, and spiritual renewal. In a time when the nation I love is in turmoil, the world is on fire, and the devil is having a heyday with the abundance of vulnerability of us all, marking eight years feels like a Godsend.

A reminder that we are who we are for a purpose. Our pain has purpose. Our peace is worth fighting for. YOUR peace is worth doing all the hard things to recapture. Or perhaps to find peace for the first time in your life. You are worthy of peace!

As loud as the winds of your storm are howling right now, please hear me:
This storm will pass.
When the dust settles, another may come.
But you, yes - YOU, can and will survive it.
You can learn to dance in the rain.
Shine brighter than the lightning.
Embrace the thunder.
And find peace even in the midst of the hurricane.
How do I know? I’ve been there. I’ve also sat with countless others as they began to realize that the storm was never meant to destroy them - it only served to clear the way ahead to rebuild an even better future.

So thank you, Anchor Fam, for allowing me into the most broken and beautiful places of your heart. I look forward to continuing this work and watching even more of you regain the light in your eyes that you may have thought was gone forever. Together, we can weather any storm. ⚓️

We wanted to let our Anchor family know that the clinic will be closed through Tuesday, August 5th. We will return all messages, emails, and voicemails in the order in which they were received when we return. Thank you all for being such an important part of our Anchor fam! ⚓️

While we hold on to hope that our great Nation will someday find her way back to the land we love, One Nation, undivided, with liberty and justice for all, we celebrate her freedoms today and enjoy her colorful display of patriotism. 🇺🇸

That said, we also mourn with those aching for the America they grew up with. The America they dreamed of. The America our babies may never know. ❤️‍🩹

Please, if you are celebrating, be safe. Consider those with trauma reminders that come with every firework pop and pets who don’t know what they mean, either. Be mindful and kind. Sometimes holidays look a little different for others. 🇺🇸

Let’s unlearn that together. Like…now-ish. ⚓️

We pray that your Memorial Day is safe and peaceful as you remember and honor those who gave all in order for it to be so. 🇺🇸

You know those days when something is on your heart, something turns your life upside down, something needs to be decided and you are torn apart inside, something just doesn’t feel right? Those days when you wish you could just take out your phone and send a message to someone outside of your bubble (so you don’t have to brush elbows with them at the dinner table or pass them the next day at work) just to get it out? 🤯😤😩 Those moments at 2am when grief has washed over you and you don’t want to “burden” your people (not that they’d ever consider you a burden to start with!)? Those moments when something feels terrifying and amazing but you need to talk it out with someone before you take the leap?

Your therapist has entered the chat. 📱

TAC has been offering private, secure, online messaging based therapy services since 2017. Text based messaging. Video based messaging. Live video. Voice messages. A combination of them all. Whatever feels more comfortable to you - that’s what we’ll do. 📞🖥️📱

For less than the cost of one private pay hour of therapy, you can have access to your therapist for a full four weeks. Send messages anytime - 24/7 - from the comfort of your phone or computer and receive personal, thoughtful, confidential responses weekly. ❤️‍🩹

For those who aren’t ready for full face to face therapy, simply don’t have the time, aren’t able to find childcare or other resources to make it to our brick and mortar clinic, or just need a little support - our messaging options may be just what you need. ⚓️

Besides, everyone could use a therapist. Even therapists need therapists! A safe space with no judgement, no one running to tell your secrets, with support and encouragement from a highly educated and experienced clinician right from your phone. 📱

To all the mothers: mothers who gave birth naturally, mothers who gave birth with medication, mothers who had c-sections, mothers who had surrogates, mothers who adopted, those who took on the mother role - sisters, grandmothers, aunts, friends, other family members, mothers of four legged babies, mothers of babies in Heaven they once held, mothers of babies in Heaven they only held internally and in their hearts, mothers of every kind…

Today we take a moment to honor, cherish, celebrate, remember, love, and support you! Thank you, thank you, thank you for all that you do! 🥰

And to those who are without their mothers…

Today we mourn with you, honoring your story, sit in the silence with you, and send you hope for comfort and peace. Spend today however you need! ❤️‍🩹

Let me ask you something.

How are you?

No, really. How are you doing?

“Fine,” isn’t an acceptable answer. I’ll take anything genuine from fan-freaking-tastic to a raging dumpster fire. Something real. Something honest. Because I’m asking because I care. I know that feels odd in this cruel, twisted world. But here - you’re safe and you matter and I’m asking.

If that answer is anything short of feeling truly, authentically content, reach out. You don’t have to even make a phone call. Send a text. An email. Skip the line and fill out the form in the comments. No matter how you send up your smoke signal - we are here for it. Dumpster fire and all! 🔥⚓️

The Anchor Clinic currently offers virtual appointments (video, phone, or live messaging), message-through-the-week plans, or limited in-person sessions. Let us know what you prefer or ask any questions you may have along the way to see what may be the best fit for you and your healing journey.

Oh, one more thing. Seeking therapy doesn’t mean something is wrong with you. It likely means something that was wrong with someone else went untreated and ended up harming you or something happened and you are having a little trouble shaking it (not that life allows time for healing or grieving most of the time!). Maybe nothing happened but something just doesn’t feel solid in your world and you just need a little support to get moving in the right direction. Whatever the case may be, we’ve got you, fam.

Now this is a cause I can get behind. 😂 For all those in our Anchor fam who have been brokenhearted thanks to someone most likely totally unworthy of them: have a little fun with your healing! ❤️‍🩹 Enjoy! ⚓️

💫 From your TAC Fam: Happy New Year! 💫

If all you did was survive 2024: we celebrate you!
Here’s to learning to thrive in 2025! ❤️‍🩹

Because you deserve to finally be able to breathe easier, live more authentically, and embrace your own unique path in life - without judgement, without doubts of others slowing you down, without the expectations of others holding you back. You deserve joy. You are worthy of peace. Isn’t it time to start making yourself a priority? ⏰

May 2025 be the year you step out of survival mode and into truly living and thriving! ⚓️

🎄 Gentle Reminder: 💔

While you may experience the Christmas season as one of joy, loved ones, laughter, and excitement, please also be cognizant of those who are grieving, struggling with depression and anxiety, feeling isolated and invisible, or those unable to financially handle the holidays the way others can. Yes, it is a joyous season and a very important time to celebrate for so many, but for some - behind the masks of smiles and good cheer - lie broken hearts just trying to make it through the next week.

TAC lifts up prayers for all of our Anchor family who experience any extent of these things as well as for those who love those struggling - neither should go unnoticed. ❤️‍🩹⚓️
