Did You Know?

Therapy isn’t just for people in crisis.
Studies show that counseling helps improve problem-solving, self-awareness, and coping skills, even for individuals who aren’t experiencing a mental health disorder.

Think of it like going to the gym: just as exercise strengthens your body, therapy strengthens your mind and emotional well-being.

Have you ever tried counseling as a way to grow, heal, or simply understand yourself better?

Today we celebrate the hard work, dedication, and resilience of the American workforce. 💪 But as we honor labor, let’s also remember the importance of rest.

🧠 Mental health is just as vital as physical strength. Burnout, stress, and exhaustion are reminders that we are human—not machines. This Labor Day, take a moment to pause, recharge, and honor the balance between work and well-being. 🌿

✨ You deserve rest. You deserve peace. You deserve care.

Sometimes the weight we carry isn’t just from today—it’s from yesterday, last week, or even years ago. 🕊️

Today, give yourself permission to release what you cannot control and focus on what’s within your power. Healing begins when we stop replaying the past and start nurturing the present moment.

💭 Ask yourself: What can I let go of today to create space for peace?

🌱 One step, one choice, one breath at a time—you’re building a stronger, lighter you.

BREAKING: Virginia Wesleyan University in Virginia Beach will be renamed Batten University.

In an exclusive interview with 13News Now, University President Dr. Scott Miller said, "this is a defining moment for this institution."

The name change honors a legacy that began in 1978, with Frank and Jane Batten, whose visionary philanthropy over the years transformed Virginia Wesleyan into a nationally known institution.

🧠💔 Access is still a major barrier.

Millions of people in the U.S. are struggling with their mental health—but more than half of them don’t get the help they need. Why?

🚫 Therapy is too expensive.
🚫 There aren’t enough providers.
🚫 Insurance doesn’t always cover it.
🚫 Stigma keeps people silent.
🚫 Some communities have zero mental health resources nearby.

It’s not enough to say “get help” when help isn’t accessible.

We need to do better—as individuals, as communities, as a nation.
✅ Mental health care should be affordable.
✅ Support should be available, not weeks or months away.
✅ People shouldn’t have to choose between paying rent or going to therapy.

Until mental health care is treated as essential, the crisis will continue in silence.
Let’s raise our voices for those who can’t. Let's push for a system that helps everyone, not just those who can afford it.

🧠💬 Anxiety disorders are the most common mental health condition in the U.S.
More than 40 million adults are affected every year.

That means 1 in 6 people you know may be battling racing thoughts, panic attacks, constant worry, or fear that doesn’t seem to “make sense.”

Anxiety isn’t just “nerves” or “overthinking.”
It’s real. It’s exhausting. And for many, it’s invisible.

But here’s what’s also true:
💡 Anxiety is treatable.
💛 People can and do get better.
🗣️ Talking about it breaks the stigma.

So if you're struggling, you're not alone—and you're not weak. You’re human.
And if someone opens up to you about their anxiety, listen with love, not judgment.

Let’s build a world where mental health is taken seriously—and where peace of mind is a priority.
