So much of what we call “good mental health care” still expects people to adapt to systems that were never built for them.

In this new blog post, I break down how trauma-informed, neurodivergent-affirming care differs from traditional models—and why those differences actually matter for healing, not just coping.

If you’ve ever felt like therapy technically worked but still didn’t quite fit, this one’s for you.

You were never the problem. What you needed just wasn’t met—and those needs still deserve care and attention today.

Rest is not just sleep. Neurodivergent nervous systems work harder, and many of us never learned the types of rest we actually need. This post is adapted from the work of Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith, who identified seven core types of rest that support real recovery.

Whether you are masking all day, overloaded by sensory input, mentally exhausted from constant problem-solving, or simply worn down by being “on” all the time, you deserve rest that restores you.

If this resonated, you are not alone. Learn more at Valley-High Counseling in Simpsonville, SC.

Healing isn’t just about sleep or pushing through exhaustion. For neurodivergent people, rest looks different—and there are actually seven types of rest our brains and bodies need to function, recover, and thrive.

I just published a new post breaking down the 7 types of rest in a simple, accessible way, including how to recognize what kind of rest you’re missing and how to get it without needing a full day off or a vacation.

If you’ve been feeling drained, overwhelmed, or constantly “running on empty,” this one is for you.
