Mother’s Day is often portrayed as a time of gratitude, celebration, and connection. For many, it can be a meaningful opportunity to honor a loving relationship. But for others, Mother’s Day brings up something far more complicated, grief, ambivalence, resentment, longing, or even relief. If you’ve been wondering how to cope with complex feelings about Mother’s Day, you’re not alone.

If you live in Seattle, you know how long winters can feel. Short days, gray skies, and a steady drizzle that makes staying inside (and in your head) a little too easy. By the time the city finally starts to green up again, many people are carrying an emotional residue that no one warned them about: lingering stress, relational strain, and habits that quietly got worse over the dark months.

If this sounds familiar, it might be time for emotional spring cleaning Seattle style: a gentle, intentional reset where you shed stressors, worries, and unhelpful habits that no longer fit the person you’re becoming.

Each April, Autism Awareness Month invites us to pause and reflect on how we understand and support individuals on the autism spectrum. In recent years, there has been an important shift from simply raising awareness to genuine acceptance. This shift matters. Awareness acknowledges that autism exists, acceptance asks us to respond with respect, curiosity, and inclusion.



Explore autism acceptance through a neurodiversity-affirming lens. Learn how therapy supports individuals, couples, and families navigating ASD with compassion and clarity.

One of the first questions people ask when starting therapy is: “Do you take my insurance?”

Yesterday, March 31st, marks Transgender Visibility Day—a day to celebrate the resilience, diversity, and existence of transgender and gender-expansive individuals. While visibility is vital, it is not an end in itself. As highlighted in recent and historical events across the globe, visibility without safety risks exposing individuals to harassment, discrimination, and harm. True progress requires moving beyond visibility toward genuine safety, belonging, and dignity for all trans and non-binary people.
