Posted • Your therapist will never “tell you what to do”, but they will work with you to come up with small goals that can increase confidence, improve your mood, and build up emotional tolerance/agility. These seemingly small things, in conjunction with the insights you’ll take away in therapy stack up to create a life where you are in the driver’s seat and are happy and healthy enough to enjoy the ride.

Welcome, Mary Thomason, Counseling Intern
Pronouns: She/Her please go to the book your appointment to have at our website to book a session with Mary. Here’s her bio below:

Hello, I am Mary Sarah Thomason, a counseling intern with a specialization in art therapy from Pennsylvania Western University. I take a holistic approach to counseling, honoring each unique person’s journey by working from a number of perspectives, including person-centered, DBT, Gestalt, mindfulness, transpersonal, and narrative therapies. I believe the space between us is sacred, and that it is a safe container and a relationship of witness that allows for deep healing to take place.
I acknowledge that we are all raised within systems and cultures—from family to global—and that these systems influence how we have developed and how we experience the world around us, and ourselves in the world. I am not here to fix, because you are not broken. I am here to mirror back to you the beauty and intrinsic value you have as a person. I believe in the innate wisdom of your body and look at emotions and sensations as messengers—not problems to be fixed, but experiences to be honored.
I specialize in working with women living with anxiety, depression, and borderline personality disorder, as well as women who have experienced trauma, domestic violence, sexual assault, pregnancy and child loss, and systemic trauma from navigating “mental illness” through the medical, school, and court systems. My personal experiences, work in community, and studies have made this work particularly important to me.

Posted • “I’m fine” can be a reflex.
It’s short. It’s polite.
And it often hides what’s really going on.

You might say it because:
- You don’t want to burden others with your feelings.
- You’re not sure how you feel yet, & “fine” feels safer than explaining.
- You fear judgment or rejection if you share the truth.
- You’re used to minimizing your needs to keep the peace.

The problem? Every time you default to “I’m fine” when you’re not, you reinforce the idea that your real feelings are too much, inconvenient, or unwelcome.

So save this list for a quick guide for what you vanish say instead.

You don’t have to spill your life story every time someone asks how you are.
But even small shifts toward honesty can help you feel more grounded, connected, & seen.

Posted • .kellyvincent I don’t know about you, but I’ve found myself more easily triggered lately with everything happening around us.
It’s a reminder that we can’t always control what comes our way — but we can control how we meet it.
Pause. Breathe. Choose with intention.
That’s how we protect our peace in a world that feels anything but peaceful. 💛
