We discuss the deep winter crash that often hits in January and February after months of emotional giving. I share a recharging practice to help you identify your top energy leak—whether it's a loose boundary, heavy responsibility, or draining pattern—and explore how to create a smaller, gentler version that still honors you.

I talk about the powerful connection between anxiety and people-pleasing, and how this combination can lead to burnout and emotional exhaustion. I explore where people-pleasing comes from—often rooted in fear of rejection or conflict—and how anxiety amplifies these feelings. I explain the psychological component of how our brains activate a make everyone happy response instead of healthy fight-or-flight. I emphasize that self-care isn't selfish and that boundaries are essential for emotional health. I share three practical tips: practice saying no starting small, pause and breathe before committing to anything, and celebrate your wins. Most importantly, I remind you that you're not responsible for everyone else's happiness, your value isn't measured by what you do for others, and you are enough just as you are.

For National Thesaurus Day:

Here’s a reframe:

“Overwhelmed” → “I could use support.”
“Stuck” → “I’m pausing.”
“Broken” → “I’m healing.”

Words matter. And so do you.

Today is often labeled “Blue Monday,” but heavy feelings don’t follow a schedule.

If today feels heavy, your emotions matter.

You don’t have to carry them alone.

Meet the compassionate team behind LifeBalance Counseling.

Autumn Allen brings over two decades of experience walking alongside individuals through addiction recovery, housing instability, trauma, and life transitions. Her work bridges clinical insight with creative expression, offering a space where healing is shaped by your story—not a script.

With dual Master of Science degrees in Social Work (trauma-focused) and Child & Developmental Psychology, Autumn is in the final phase of earning independent clinical licensure in New Hampshire. During this time, she collaborates closely with a senior clinician to ensure clients receive layered, thoughtful care.

Autumn’s approach blends expressive arts and narrative therapy, inviting clients to explore identity, resilience, and emotional regulation through metaphor, movement, and meaning-making. She’s especially drawn to supporting military veterans and young adults, meeting them with grounded empathy and strategies that honor both vulnerability and strength.

Clients often describe her as intuitive, creative, and deeply present. Her sessions offer a place to:

Reframe your story with intention and agency

Engage healing through art, reflection, and embodied practices

Build tools that feel personal, practical, and empowering

Be witnessed—not judged—as you navigate your path forward

Autumn doesn’t just hold space—she helps you reclaim it.

If you’ve been considering therapy, this may be your sign.
