Setting resolutions can really engage our motivation and desire to achieve. It is exciting to set goals and meet them!Often times, we expect so much out of ourselves, that we end up setting unrealistic and unattainable goals, especially around this time of year. So here is how you to set a REALISTIC resolution this year:…
I should start this out by saying that about 5 years ago, I thought this idea of self-care was absolute bullsh*t 🙈🙉🙊. As a professional, I would roll my eyes anytime I heard mention of the term self-care because I didn’t have time for it. I had a to-do list 4 pages long and that…
Everyone is stressed to the MAX and it is impacting not only our health, but our relationships, our performance….basically, our whole lives.
Having trouble falling asleep? Does your mind seem to wander? Are you rerunning the day, thinking about everything you could have done differently?

This tells your body that they have to be on the lookout. That’s…
There have been a handful of times (ok, who am I kidding – it’s way more than a handful!😋) when I kind of lose it 💥. You know what I mean, right? Something (probably very small in the grand scheme of things) really just sends me over the edge and I boil over like a…
Obviously, when I am writing this, we are still in the midst of the COVID pandemic, so most therapists are still doing teletherapy. However, as things go back to “normal” (whatever that even is, right? 🤷♀️ ), it is important to discuss the benefits of both in-person counseling and teletherapy. Teletherapy most definitely has its…
