Lindsay Stewart, one of our amazing therapists at DK Counseling, shares the podcasts she recommends to clients most.

Therapy is just one hour a week, but the other 167 hours matter too. The right podcast can help you learn new tools, feel less alone, and keep the momentum going between sessions.

Lindsay’s top picks:

- The Happiness Lab with Dr. Santos
- The Psychology of Your 20s with Jemma
- Mantra with Jemma
- Therapy in a Nutshell with Emma
- A Slight Change of Plans with Dr. Maya

Which one is your favorite? Tell us in the comments, and save this post for your next walk or commute.

Podcasts are a great supplement, but not a substitute for therapy. At DK Counseling Services, we’re here to support you in session and out.

September is Su***de Prevention Awareness Month. We want to let you know that you always matter, and you are not alone.

Sometimes the people carrying the heaviest weight are the ones who seem "fine" on the outside. It can seem tricky to know what the warning signs may actually be. You may hear someone talking about feeling hopeless, pulling away from people, giving things away, or a sudden sense of calm after a hard day. How can you help someone before a crisis hits? Swipe through to learn what to look for, and how to help.

If this is you today: please reach out. Call or text 988 anytime, day or night. It's free, confidential, and staffed by people who want to help. You don't have to say the right thing. You just have to reach out.

And if it's someone you love, check in, ask a direct question, or sometimes just being there for them can mean more than you know.

Always remember, you are never a burden and you are not alone. Help is closer than it may feel.

Unfiltered mornings at the practice! It’s safe to say they were not prepared for morning roll call 😂.

We are thrilled to officially welcome Dr. Amar Chakra to our practice family!

Dr. Chakra is a double board-certified psychiatrist who works with children, teens and adults. He looks at the whole picture before deciding what to recommend, and he builds each plan around what is best for the individual patient. Bringing an incredible depth of expertise, compassionate approach, and a shared dedication to helping our community thrive is only a few of the reasons we are excited to have Dr. Chakra as a part of our team.

With this new addition, we are proud to offer a comprehensive care practice. What does that mean for you? It means you can now access a seamless approach to your mental wellness goals, including therapy, psychiatry, and psychological testing all under one roof.

Can you believe the first day of school is just around the corner? It feels like yesterday we were planning summer fun and vacations. You and your child are probably feeling a mix of excitement and anxiety as the day gets closer. We know that transitions can be tough. If those "back-to-school jitters" are starting to set in, here are a few gentle ways to help ease the worry.

Always keep in mind this time of year can be stressful for you, too! Be gentle with yourself as you navigate this new school year. If you or your child needs extra support navigating school anxiety or life transitions this fall, we are here to help. Reach out through link in bio.

Lately, there’s a lot of pressure to be completely put together. Society pressures us to always show up healed, calm, and perfectly curated.

But that's not real life, is it?

It’s okay if your progress feels messy. It’s okay if your feelings feel complicated. It’s okay if you are afraid. The magic isn't in being fearless; it’s in the showing up.

Save and share with someone who needs to hear this today.

Do you ever catch yourself mindlessly scrolling through your feed? All of a sudden, your jaw is clenched, your shoulders are up to your ears, and your anxiety is through the roof.

That’s the dreaded doomscrolling trap. Our brains are naturally wired to look for threats, but constantly consuming stressful content tricks our nervous system into a chronic state of fight-or-flight.

Why not try Bloomscrolling.

Bloomscrolling is the practice of purposefully seeking out and consuming positive, beautiful, and uplifting content. Think: sweeping nature land and waterscapes, inspiring art videos and community stories, or gentle mental health reminders.

Here is why shifting your focus matters:

1) Regulates Your Nervous System: Swapping chaos for calm signals to your brain that you are safe, allowing your heart rate and cortisol levels to drop.

2) Protects Your Mental Energy: You can’t pour from an empty cup. Guarding what enters your visual field preserves your energy for the things that actually matter in your real life.

3) Rewires Your Algorithm: The more you look at what grounds you, the more the algorithm will serve you exactly that. You have more control over your digital environment than you think.

This week, I challenge you to do a quick feed audit and seek out pages that bring a sense of peace or inspiration.

Drop a 🌸 below if you’re joining the bloomscrolling movement this week!
