The start of a new year can bring pressure to do more and be better. But growth doesn’t require self-criticism.

As you think about goals or create a vision board, consider including:
• What you’re already doing well
• What supports your mental health
• What you want to feel — not just what you want to accomplish
• What you’re ready to release

You are allowed to move forward at your own pace.
You are allowed to set goals that feel kind, realistic, and align with your values.

This year, let progress be rooted in self-compassion — not pressure. 🤍

Save this for later or share with someone who needs a gentler start to the year.

Holiday stress is one of the most common themes coming up in sessions right now. Many people feel pulled between family expectations, old dynamics, and the pressure to “show up” in ways that aren’t aligned with their current capacity.

These slides break down what I often review with clients: how to set clear, sustainable boundaries and how to cope ahead for situations that may feel activating or overwhelming.

If the holidays bring up anxiety, guilt, or emotional exhaustion, you’re not alone. Preparing ahead—naming your limits, practicing your language, and planning for regulation can significantly reduce stress and increase your sense of control.

Your mental health matters during this season just as much as any tradition or expectation.

Save this if you need a reminder, and revisit it before holiday events or gatherings. 🤍

Today is World Mental Health Day.

As a therapist, I want to take a moment to remind you that your mental health is important every day, not just today. It’s the conversations we have when we’re struggling to find the right words, the courage it takes to reach out for help, and the small wins—like getting out of bed on tough days—that count.

Mental health isn’t confined to a single day. It’s in the daily moments:
✨ The strength to ask for support.
✨ The bravery to take time for yourself.
✨ The persistence to keep moving forward, even when it feels overwhelming.

So today, and every day, remember this:
You are worthy of care and support. Your feelings are valid. Your story matters. And, no matter what, there is always hope.

It’s not weak to speak.

Today is World IVF Day — a moment to honor the strength, hope, and resilience of all those who have walked or are still walking the path of fertility treatments.

As a perinatal mental health therapist, I see the emotional weight that can come with this journey…the silent grief, the waiting, the longing, and the uncertainty. IVF is not just a medical process — it’s deeply emotional, often isolating, and layered with hope and heartbreak.

To those navigating IVF now: your feelings are valid, your strength is real, and you are not alone.

To those who have completed the journey — in any direction it took — your story matters.

And to the support people holding space quietly alongside: thank you. You are part of the healing.

Let today be a reminder to hold space for compassion, understanding, and connection — especially in the moments that feel unseen.

You are seen. You are supported. You are never alone in this.

Ask any mom who’s had a miscarriage… she still knows her due date.

That date is etched in her heart.
Even if her arms are empty, she remembers the day she thought she’d meet her baby.

1 in 4 pregnancies ends in miscarriage.
It’s common, but that doesn’t make it any less heartbreaking.

As a perinatal mental health therapist, I want to gently remind you:
💔 What not to say when someone has a miscarriage:
“At least you weren’t further along.”
“Everything happens for a reason.”
“You can try again.”
“At least you know you can get pregnant.”
“It wasn’t meant to be.”

🫶 What to say instead:
“I’m so sorry. I’m here for you.”
“Your baby mattered.”
“I’m thinking of you, especially around your due date.”
“There’s no right or wrong way to grieve.”

Let’s hold space for the invisible losses. Let’s speak with empathy, not solutions. Let’s honor every parent who carries their baby in their heart instead of their arms.

So often, people associate my work with adults and perinatal mental health—and yes, that’s a huge and meaningful part of what I do. 🌿

But I also want to gently remind my colleagues, community, and clients that I also have a deep love and commitment to working with children and adolescents.

Holding space for young people—their big feelings, honest questions, and incredible capacity for change—is a privilege I never take for granted.

And parents, you’re not left out. Every child and teen session includes you—your insight, your support, your voice—because therapy is most effective when it includes the whole system.

Whether it’s a 7-year-old navigating anxiety, a teen facing life transitions, or a parent adjusting to a new baby—I’m here to support the whole family with warmth, respect, and clinically grounded care.

Thanks for helping me spread the word. ✨

🌧️ Rainy Days & Low Moods? You’re Not Alone. 🌧️

Lately, many clients have been sharing how the gloomy weather is affecting their mood. Even though it’s technically summer, the lack of sunshine and long stretches of rain can trigger symptoms similar to seasonal affective disorder (SAD). Yes—seasonal depression can still hit when it’s not winter.

➡️ You might notice:

•Low energy or motivation
•Changes in sleep or appetite
•Feeling more down or withdrawn
•A general “funk” you can’t quite shake

☀️ Tips to shift your mood when the sun won’t show up:

•Get outside during daylight, even if it’s overcast
•Move your body—gentle stretching, walking, or dancing counts
•Stick to a routine (even when you don’t feel like it)
•Use a light therapy lamp, especially in the mornings
•Talk to someone—friends, family, or a therapist

You’re not weak or lazy for feeling off. Your brain and body are responding to your environment—something we all do.

✨ Be gentle with yourself. This will pass. And if it doesn’t? You don’t have to go through it alone.

I’ve noticed some new faces here recently — welcome, and thank you for being here. I wanted to take a moment to reintroduce myself and share a bit about the work I do.

I’m a licensed therapist based in Red Bank, New Jersey, offering both in-person sessions and virtual therapy across the state. I work with children, adolescents, and adults, and I’m certified in perinatal mental health, supporting individuals through the emotional transitions of pregnancy, postpartum, and parenting.

My approach is centered on creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space — a place where you or your child can feel truly heard, respected, and supported. Whether you’re facing anxiety, life transitions, parenting stress, or simply looking for a space to reflect and grow, you are not alone.

I know that reaching out for help can be one of the hardest and bravest steps you can take. It takes strength to ask for support, and I deeply respect that courage.

I’m currently accepting new clients for individual and group therapy. To start, I offer a free 15-minute consultation call — a chance to connect, ask questions, and make sure it feels like the right fit for you or your child.

If you’ve been thinking about therapy, I’d be honored to support you on your journey. Feel free to reach out via message or through the link in my bio to schedule a consultation.

Today is Bereaved Mother’s Day — a day to honor the mothers who hold their babies in their hearts instead of their arms.

To every mother who has experienced pregnancy loss, stillbirth, infant loss, or any form of motherhood shaped by grief—your love, your pain, and your story matter. You are not forgotten. You are a mother.

As a perinatal mental health therapist, I see you. I walk with you in the quiet, painful spaces that often go unspoken. Today, and every day, your grief is valid. Your baby is remembered.

Please take a moment today to care for your heart, reach out for support if you need it, and know that you are not alone.
