Deep Roots Counselling
Manitoba-based professional counsellor providing individual & Christian counselling • Anxiety & grief care • ADHD assessment & support.

Needing a safe and supportive space to dig up the old roots and lay the foundation for growth? With over 15 years working in health care, I have a special understanding of the importance of balance, wellness, and self-compassion. I have a Master's of Arts degree in Counselling Psychology, a Bachelor of Nursing degree, a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Biology, and a Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in Religious Studies
I work with youth and adults who have mood disorders, anxiety, depression, chronic illness, those dealing with trauma and crisis, and those at the end of life. I understand the important relationship between physical and mental health and wellness, and work with the understanding that all aspects of each person (physical, mental, spiritual, social, intellectual) are important and influence who we are. I work with people where they are in life, and do my best to work from a person centered approach, understanding that the client is the expert on their life and know what is truly important to them.

🧠🍂 HUMP DAY SLUMP DAY: USELESS PSYCHOLOGY FACTS

🍁 Your brain has a negativity bias.

Ever notice how you can have 10 good things happen in a day, but that ONE annoying thing is what your brain replays at bedtime?

You had a lovely Thanksgiving dinner… but someone made that one awkward comment.

You enjoyed the long weekend… but now you're thinking about everything you didn't get done.

You have so much to be thankful for… but your brain keeps reminding you about what's going wrong.

🙃 Congratulations! Your brain is being a brain.

Our brains tend to pay more attention to negative experiences than positive ones. It's a survival mechanism that helps us notice potential threats—but it can also make the good things easier to overlook.

🌱 Here's where gratitude comes in.

Practising gratitude can help us intentionally notice the good alongside the hard.

Not instead of the hard.
Not pretending everything is wonderful.
Not forcing yourself to feel thankful when you're struggling.

Just making a little room for both.

☕ Your Hump Day Challenge:

Before the day ends, name three things you're grateful for.

They don't have to be life-changing.

A good cup of coffee.
A dog who makes you laugh.
A quiet moment.
Someone who checked in.
Getting through a difficult day.

Because sometimes, gratitude isn't about having a perfect life.

It's about noticing the little things that make life feel a little more meaningful. ❤️

🍂 You can be grateful for what you have and still hope for what you need.

That's not being ungrateful. That's being human.

🧠 Hump Day Slump Day
Useless Psychology Fact
Your brain actually likes knowing what comes next.
Predictable routines can reduce the number of decisions your brain has to make throughout the day.
But here's the catch…
When your routine suddenly changes—
🍂 summer ends
⏰ alarms start again
📅 schedules fill up
🎒 school routines return
💼 work gets busier
…your brain has to process a whole bunch of “what happens next?”
And sometimes that feels like:
“Why am I so tired? I literally didn't do anything.”
Because adjusting is work.
🌱 Tiny reminder:
You don't need to create the perfect routine.
Start with one or two anchors that help your day feel predictable.
☕ Morning coffee
⏰ Consistent wake-up time
🍽️ Regular meal
🚶 Evening walk
🛏️ Same bedtime routine
Structure doesn't have to be rigid to be supportive.
Your brain isn't being difficult. It's learning the new rhythm. 🍂

Hump Day Slump Day

Useless Psychology Fact: Your Brain Doesn't Love Transitions

The fact:
Even positive changes can feel stressful because your brain has to adjust to new routines, expectations, environments, and patterns.

So when summer ends and suddenly you're thinking about:
🍎 school
📅 schedules
💼 work
🏃 routines
🍂 colder weather
🧠 ALL THE THINGS...
..your brain may basically say:

“Um… excuse me. We had a system.”

And that's why you might feel a little unsettled, unmotivated, nostalgic, or overwhelmed—even when nothing is actually wrong.

Tiny reminder:
You don't have to adjust to an entire new season overnight.

One small rhythm at a time. 🍂

🧰 TUESDAY — TOOLS FOR TUESDAY
The “Enough” Practice

This is one I think would be particularly meaningful after our Week 8 conversations about chasing joy.

We can spend so much time trying to maximize experiences that we don't recognize when we've actually had enough.

More plans.
More experiences.
More productivity.
More memories.
More fun.

🧠 Clinical Lens
Our brains are wired to pursue rewards, but more stimulation doesn't necessarily equal more satisfaction.

Sometimes wellbeing involves recognizing:
This is enough.

🌿 Practice:
At some point today, pause and ask:
Am I enjoying this—or am I trying to get enough enjoyment out of it?

That's a very different question.

🌿 MINDFUL MINUTE
You Don't Have to Make the Last Days Count

There's a strange pressure that can happen at the end of summer:
“We need to do something!”
One more beach day.
One more adventure.
One more barbecue.
One more trip.

One more perfect family memory.
But turning the final days into a checklist can make it harder to actually experience them.

🧠 Clinical Lens
Anticipating an ending can pull our attention away from the present.
Instead of experiencing what's happening, we're already thinking about what's disappearing.

🌱 Try This
Don't ask:
“What can I squeeze into the rest of summer?”
Ask:
“What do I want to actually notice?”

🌿 THE LAST LITTLE BITS OF SUMMER

Making Room for What Matters

A gentle goodbye to summer—and an intentional hello to what's next.

The clinical:
How do we transition without living entirely in the future?

There is something psychologically interesting about the final days of a season. We become very aware that something is ending, which can cause us to either:

cling to it
rush through it
become nostalgic
try to “make the most of it,”
or mentally jump ahead to what's next

Instead, this final week asks:
Can we be present for the ending without desperately trying to hold onto it—and without rushing past it?

🌱 ROOT CHECK

Is Your Routine Supporting You?

At the end of the week, pause and check in.
Not:
“Did I do everything?”
Instead:
🌿 What is working?
🌱 What feels unnecessarily difficult?
🧠 What is draining my capacity?
💚 Where do I need more support?
🌊 Where do I need more flexibility?
🛏️ Where have I forgotten to rest?
🎯 Where am I confusing achievement with worth?
And finally:
What is one small adjustment I can make next week?
Not a complete overhaul.
Not a new personality.
Not another impossible routine.
Just one adjustment.

🌿 SLOW DOWN SUNDAY

Create a Soft Landing for the Week Ahead

Sunday doesn't have to be the day you panic about everything you didn't accomplish.
Instead, try creating a soft landing.
Before the week begins:
🌱 Look ahead.
What is coming?
🧠 Identify your pressure points.
Where are you most likely to become overwhelmed?
🌿 Protect your essentials.
What needs to happen for you to function well?
💚 Schedule recovery.
Where is your rest?
🤍 Leave some space.
What happens if something doesn't go according to plan?
And perhaps most importantly:
Ask:
“What does future-me need from present-me?”
Maybe it's:
packing lunch.
checking the calendar.
going to bed earlier.
asking for help.
saying no to something.
preparing tomorrow's clothes.
or simply giving yourself permission not to fill every available minute.
💬 Remember:
Preparation isn't about controlling the week.
It's about making the week a little easier to navigate.

✝️ SOULFUL SATURDAY

You Were Never Meant to Run at One Speed

There are seasons for moving quickly.
There are seasons for slowing down.
There are seasons for building.
There are seasons for recovering.
There are seasons where you have more capacity.
And seasons where you have less.
We sometimes interpret a slower season as a spiritual or personal failure.
“I should be doing more.”
But even Scripture reminds us that there is a rhythm to life.
“For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.”
— Ecclesiastes 3:1
🧠 A Clinical Lens
Human beings aren't designed for constant high output.
Our capacity naturally fluctuates with:
sleep,
stress,
health,
environment,
relationships,
hormonal changes,
life circumstances,
and emotional load.
So perhaps the goal isn't:
“How do I maintain maximum productivity?”
Maybe it's:
“How do I respond wisely to the capacity I actually have?”
✝️ Spiritual Reflection
God doesn't ask us to prove our value through exhaustion.
There is room for work.
There is room for rest.
There is room for becoming.
There is room for simply being.
🌱 Ask yourself:
What pace is actually sustainable for this season of my life?
