This Veterans Day and holiday season, we’re giving back in a tangible way.

We’ve adopted a military family of 5 through Soldiers’ Angels Adopt-A-Family program. The family has three pr***en girls. Their wish is simple: groceries for a holiday meal and a few gifts to make the season feel special.

We created an Amazon wishlist so gifts can be purchased and shipped directly to them. We wanted to make participation easy, transparent, and meaningful.

👉 Wishlist link: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2JBOXPUAWMGHF?ref_=wl_share

If you’d like to join us or pass the link along to someone who loves giving during the holidays, we would love that. A little support goes a long way.

Let’s bring some joy and stability to a family that has given so much to ours.

Still feeling so grateful after Wednesday night’s Vibrant Inside & Out event 💗

A huge thank you to Whitney and the team for opening their space and hearts, to Brittany and Jen for sharing such powerful stories of resilience, to The Helen Knoll Foundation for their incredible work in early detection and education, and to Britt for helping us all feel a little extra radiant.

And to everyone who showed up — thank you. It felt so good to connect, to hear stories of strength and self-advocacy, and to be reminded of the power of community and conversation.

A gentle reminder to take time for self-exams and early screenings — knowing your body and trusting yourself is one of the most important ways to advocate for your health. Get the knowledge, stay curious, and share it with your friends.

Stress isn’t just “feeling off”—it can mess with your sleep, spike your cortisol, and even shrink the part of your brain that handles memory (the hippocampus). Therapy helps you stay ahead of it before it builds up. If you're feeling the pressure (dating, school, work, life), try these quick stress hacks:

1. Breathe like you’re watching the sunset at Windansea – Slow, deep breaths signal your brain to relax. Try the 4-7-8 method next time you’re feeling anxious.
2. Move a little – A walk down Prospect or a few laps at La Jolla Shores can lower cortisol and boost your mood.
3. Unplug for a sec – Your brain wasn’t built for constant notifications. Set screen boundaries and protect your peace.Your mental health is worth taking seriously—even in paradise.

🧠☕️ 1. Coffee + Dopamine = Morning MagicYour brain actually gets a dopamine kick just from expecting your morning coffee. That means the first sip isn’t just a ritual—it’s a mini mood boost. Want to start your day right? Set your mug out the night before and wake up to your built-in brain therapy.

Meet the La Jolla Wellness team

We’re therapists, but not the “stare silently and nod” kind.
We’re the “help you unpack your life and laugh about it along the way” kind.

Here’s what you should know about us:

- We believe therapy is for real life (messy, beautiful, complicated).
- We run on lattes (espresso and tea) and deep conversations.
- We take mental health seriously—but try not to take ourselves too seriously.

We’re big on connection, community, and cheering each other on.

Equal parts heart and humor.

Ever given yourself a hug… and felt totally weird about it? Turns out, it might be exactly what your inner child needs.

Reparenting is all about giving yourself the love, care, and validation you didn’t get growing up so you can heal old wounds, quiet that harsh inner critic, and build healthier relationships today.

It’s not always pretty. It can be awkward, messy, even emotional. But experts say that learning to “parent” your younger self—through things like writing letters to them, imagining comforting them, or practicing kindness toward yourself—can shift the way you show up in the world.

And no, it’s not a magic overnight fix. But for many, it’s the path from “the me who had to protect me” to “the real me” who can actually feel safe, loved, and open. 💛

Have you ever tried reparenting?

Ever lie awake at 2 AM replaying that one awkward thing you said… from 5 years ago? 🙃

Turns out, it’s not just you being dramatic—your brain might actually be wired to remember mistakes more vividly.

A new study found that people with higher social anxiety show extra-strong brain rhythms (theta waves in the medial frontal cortex) when they mess up—locking those cringe moments into memory.

So yeah… your brain’s basically making a highlight reel of your most awkward hits. 🙄 The good news? Knowing why is the first step to changing it.

If you are having a hard time with these cringe moments, reach out.

🌟 Big News at La Jolla Wellness! 🌟

After years of cheering each other on from parallel paths, I’m so excited to share that Robyn Reddell is officially joining La Jolla Wellness as Co-Owner and Director of Clinical Services! 💛✨

Robyn has always been a steady, guiding force behind the scenes—offering her wisdom, groundedness, and deep care since the very beginning. After building our own practices independently, we finally decided it was time to make it official and merge.

If you know Robyn, you know what a calming presence she brings to every room she's in. She's the perfect balance to my drive—thoughtful, steady, and rooted. Whether working with clients or supporting colleagues, she shows up with clarity, compassion, and calm leadership.

As Director of Clinical Services, Robyn will support our team with her years of experience and help expand the services we offer to meet the growing needs of our community.

Robyn and I can’t wait to build this next chapter of La Jolla Wellness together.
