Whole Counseling and Wellness

Motherhood is beautiful…but let’s be real, it’s also exhausting and comes with the worst PTO policy ever. 😅

That’s why we are teaming up with and to bring the National Walk for Mothers and Mental Health right here to Stuart, FL.

This event is all about connection, movement, and shining a light on something too often left in the dark: mothers’ mental health.

📅 Thursday, October 2, 2025
⏰ 9:30 AM
📍 Flagler Park Basketball Court → Gilbert’s Coffee Bar
👕 Wear green to show support
👶 Family + strollers welcome

What to expect:
🌿 A refreshing community walk
☕ Coffee + connection at Gilbert’s
💪 Fun + activities with FIT4MOM
💚 A chance to remind ourselves: moms’ mental health matters

I’ll be there representing .counseling, Whole Counseling & Wellness, where my focus is women’s mental health, with a specialization in perinatal and reproductive care. My heart is in this work because I’ve seen time and again that when moms thrive, families thrive.

So, let’s walk together, for ourselves, for each other, and for every mom who deserves support. I’d love to see you there. 💚

We Won! We’re Honored ✨

Whole Counseling and Wellness has been named a 2025 Best of Florida Regional Winner in the Mental Health & Therapy Practices category, and I am feeling deeply grateful.

This recognition is such a meaningful moment, not just for me, but for every woman who has walked through our doors, shared her story, and bravely pursued healing.

At Whole Counseling and Wellness, our mission is centered around women’s mental health across the lifespan, with a special focus on perinatal, maternal, and reproductive mental health. From fertility journeys, pregnancy, postpartum, and loss, to identity shifts, hormonal transitions, and the everyday mental load so many women carry, we hold space for it all.

This award reflects the community we’re so passionately building, one grounded in compassion, safety, and support. Most of all, it’s a testament to the trust and encouragement we’ve received from those within this community.

To everyone who voted, shared, referred, or encouraged us, thank you! You’ve helped amplify this mission and make care more accessible for women who need it most.

With so much gratitude,
Ellen
Founder, Whole Counseling and Wellness
