AMEN!! Thank you Simone for being willing to share your story and champion self care and the power of therapy!!

❤️❤️❤️❤️ Self care is so very important for athletes and we’re so thankful that Olympic Champ Simone Biles has been so open in sharing her journey, which we know is helping others. Biles has spoken of how much therapy has benefited her and during this Mental Health Awareness month of May - and always - it’s great to continue to destigamtize what would have previously been barriers.

Making it easier to lobby for the Counseling Compact I posted about earlier.

05/16/2025

Ok Texas friends this is a long one but hang in there. States are trying to make a Counseling Compact which means a Licensed Professional Counselor can get practicing privileges in other participating states to see clients there. This would be AMAZING for military families, individuals working out of state, a college kid out of state, etc. They don't have to start over with finding a new psychotherapist- they can continue with the therapist they have grown to trust! This bill is currently in our State House and Senate to be voted on. If it is NOT passed by end of session on June 2nd (2 wks) it won't be voted on again till 2027--2 YEARS!
If you are a psychotherapist or you have had/have a therapist you love you know the value of this. PLEASE send an email to our Reps and Senators asking them to support these bills to get them passed. I took me awhile but I just email each committee member. Here are some links to use. Let's do what we can to get this passed!

Current committee the bill is with https://senate.texas.gov/cmte.php?c=510

Good thoughts to remember!

Do you have a Piglet..I sure hope you do.

This is long, but worth the read:
Pooh woke up that morning, and, for reasons that he didn't entirely understand, couldn't stop the tears from coming. He sat there in bed, his little body shaking, and he cried, and cried, and cried.

Amidst his sobs, the phone rang.

It was Piglet.

"Oh Piglet," said Pooh, between sobs, in response to his friend's gentle enquiry as to how he was doing. "I just feel so Sad. So, so, Sad, almost like I might not ever be happy again. And I know that I shouldn't be feeling like this. I know there are so many people who have it worse off than me, and so I really have no right to be crying, with my lovely house, and my lovely garden, and the lovely woods all around me. But oh, Piglet: I am just SO Sad."

Piglet was silent for a while, as Pooh's ragged sobbing filled the space between them. Then, as the sobs turned to gasps, he said, kindly: "You know, it isn't a competition."

"What isn't a competition?" asked a confused sounding Pooh.

"Sadness. Fear. Grief," said Piglet. "It's a mistake we often make, all of us. To think that, because there are people who are worse off than us, that that somehow invalidates how we are feeling. But that simply isn't true. You have as much right to feel unhappy as the next person; and, Pooh - and this is the really important bit - you also have just as much right to get the help that you need."

"Help? What help?" asked Pooh. "I don't need help, Piglet.

"Do I?"

Pooh and Piglet talked for a long time, and Piglet suggested to Pooh some people that he might be able to call to talk to, because when you are feeling Sad, one of the most important things is not to let all of the Sad become trapped inside you, but instead to make sure that you have someone who can help you, who can talk through with you how the Sad is making you feeling, and some of the things that might be able to be done to support you with that.

What's more, Piglet reminded Pooh that this support is there for absolutely everyone, that there isn't a minimum level of sad that you have to be feeling before you qualify to speak to someone.

Finally, Piglet asked Pooh to open his window and look up at the sky, and Pooh did so.

"You see that sky?" Piglet asked his friend. "Do you see the blues and the golds and that big fluffy cloud that looks like a sheep eating a carrot?"
Pooh looked, and he could indeed see the blues and the golds and the big fluffy cloud that looked like a sheep eating a carrot.

"You and I," continued Piglet, "we are both under that same sky. And so, whenever the Sad comes, I want you to look up at that sky, and know that, however far apart we might be physically...we are also, at the same time, together. Perhaps, more together than we have ever been before."

"Do you think this will ever end?" asked Pooh in a small voice.

"This too shall pass," confirmed Piglet. "And I promise you, one day, you and I shall once again sit together, close enough to touch, sharing a little smackerel of something...under that blue gold sky."
I hope that you have a piglet to call and share a sob with.🥰😇😊
