Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end~ Seneca Bittersweet morning as we watched our oldest play her last high school soccer game. Endings are difficult and change is hard, but the reflection and memories that it typically inspires can be a great reminder of what we have accomplished, enjoyed, and endured. So with sadness we say goodbye to a chapter but with excitement we look forward to a new one beginning. ‘Tis the cycle of life~ *#newbeginnings #newchapter #hardtosaygoodbye #faceforward #psychotherapist #psychotherapy #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness

#weekendvibes as I do my best to stay committed to my health and fitness goals. I try to remind myself that I am worthy of my own commitment How do you stay disciplined and committed to yourself? * #psychotherapist #psychotherapy #healthandwellness #commitment #discipline #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #liveyourbestlife #selfcare #firewife #firstresponders #firefightermentalhealth #marriageandfamilytherapist

Sometimes it is very easy for negative self-talk to pop into our heads. It is that automatic thought that can be as simple as I’m so dumb. When I find this happening, I try to remind myself to talk to myself like I want my daughters to talk to themselves. When we acknowledge our thoughts and feelings in a compassionate way, we self-validate. In turn, we are much better able to cope with disappointment, sadness, and sorrow. #thoughtfulthursday #psychotherapy #psychotherapist #marriageandfamilytherapist #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #therapy #selfvalidation #positiveselftalk #selfcompassion #compassion

I love that through EMDR I’m able to help those who have experienced trauma find relief!

I’ve been having this conversation a lot with people lately and I’m wondering what you think. Do you think that social media enhances your connections or do you find that you’re comparing yourself to others? https://www.psychologytoday.com//2017/the-comparison-trap

Great article that explains what an MFT does (we do not only see families and couples )
