Emily Mitchell-Harris Counseling

04/16/2024

New name alert!!! That's right, my business' name has changed from Emily Lanspa Counseling LLC, to Emily Mitchell-Harris Counseling!

A few other changes to note: I have moved from Missouri to Wiscosin and transformed my therapy practice to full Telehealth! I am also narrowing my client focus to teens and young adults instead of 3 to infinity. As a therapist in private practice it feels empowering to begin honing in on my niche and discovering who I work best with and where I see myself doing the most good for my clients.

I hope to continue to grow in my speciality with teens and young adults and what I can offer via telehealth. Your support has meant the world to me and I appreciate your continued support as I grow as a business.
If you know someone looking for a therapist, I have immediate openings.

Today was very inspirational and I hope that all kids, and adults too, feel loved and respected so that they can reach for their dreams, creating a beautiful future. "To the children of our country, regardless of your gender, our country has sent you a clear message: Dream with ambition, lead with conviction, and see yourself in a way that others might not see you, simply because they’ve never seen it before. And we will applaud you every step of the way," Harris said during her Vice President-elect Acceptance Speech.

We are all facing storms and it’s important to remember that storms end and our lives continue. Find those who will be there for you during the storms and after, and be vulnerable enough to share your experience with them to receive the much needed support in difficult times ❤️ The Boy, The Mole, The Fox, and The Horse - Charlie Mackesy

It’s never too late to learn something new and never too early to begin teaching it! Before I started my private practice and providing therapy in middle schools, I was blessed to be a part of Wyman Center’s Teen Outreach Program, teaching these skills to middle schoolers in a classroom setting and watched them practice them in their daily, everyday lives. It’s truly necessary that society welcomes social-emotional learning as a fundamental skill set and it’s heart warming and magical to see children using these skills! I now teach and practice these skills with my clients and will continue to advocate to get these topics in schools curriculums!!

Ringing a bell? Take a few minutes sometime today and check in with yourself. Have you been feeling not physically great? Have you been stuffing some of your emotions and thoughts down and down so you don’t have to “deal” with them? Our physical and mental bodies are so connected, when we suppress the mental, it shows up in the physical. Take a look at the Emotions Wheel and try exploring some of those emotions you may be suppressing, then share them with someone you love and trust or get an appointment with a therapist to explore all of your important emotions!

Sometimes a check list is the boost we need. Love this check list I saw online! It checks in with your physical, mental, social, and psyche. We are whole human beings and we have to take care of and check in with ALL parts of ourselves. Taking care of your whole self is true definition of “treat yo self” extended Sunday... Happy Labor Day!

Loneliness, connection, health, and happiness. One of the very best podcast episodes I have listened to and I urge you to take a listen too! In my personal life and the years working as a therapist, I have been met with this complex feeling of loneliness and have always had difficulty defining and explaining it. Brené Brown’s podcast Unlocking Us with Dr. Vivek Murphy did a beautiful job diving into this topic that so many of us struggle with and gave me a new perspective on loneliness and managing the feelings and shame associated with it. Find it on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/unlocking-us-with-bren%C3%A9-brown/id1494350511?i=1000472142134
