Ashley Mahdavi, LPC, CCDPD Counseling Services Providing mental health and addictions services to help people improve their quality of life

Therapy can be a great tool to help people improve their quality of life and go from just surviving to really living. In my counseling sessions I utilize cognitive behavioral theory to help people adjust their thoughts and behaviors to work for them instead of against them. I provide a judgement free approach in a calming environment to help people work toward being the best version of themselves.

Great explanation for those who are genuinely seeking to learn more to support the LGBTQ+ folks in their lives. Diversity is something to celebrate, not punish. 🏳️‍🌈

The thing many people don't realize about practicing gratitude is that it's not just about the big things- having food to eat, shelter, family, aspects of your health, etc. The type of gratitude that really creates a mind shift is finding it in little moments throughout your day, even in unexpected situations.

Folding laundry I was excited to see only 2 pairs of socks to match (hooray sandal season!) Also, the absolute gleeful gallop of my dog as he stole one from the fresh pile.

I got into a minor fender bender and, once the nerves settled down, I felt appreciative that the other person was so calm and kind. No raised voices, no cursing, just two adults in a moment that wasn't ideal for either of us.

Gratitude sneaks up in unexpected ways and can change your whole perspective. I could've told everyone I had an absolutely horrible day, but the reality was that it was a pretty good day, with about 30 minutes of higher stress as everything worked its way out of my body. I shook it off and walked on stage for my tap dance recital about 2 hours later and am glad for that opportunity. Live your life despite the unexpected chaos that will inevitably unfold.

Great suggestions for how to get more enjoyment out of life. It takes a conscious effort for most people, but it's absolutely worth the pay off!

Nothing makes me happier than seeing people be so authentically themselves, even if it goes against some imaginary social norm, as long as they arent hurting anyone in the process. Dye your hair purple, fill your antique china cabinet with action figures, sing to the music in the grocery store, allow the world to see whatever it is that is unique and beautiful about you!

For every person that rolls their eyes or gives a sideways glance, there will be at least one more who is excited to watch you in your element. When I first got this shark purse I was over the moon about it. Then, I wondered if people would judge me as childish or express some disapproval at my delightful whimsy. The opposite became far more common. I have had dozens of people approach me to talk about it. To share their love of sharks, to ask me questions about it, to tell me a story about some wildlife adventure. Show the world who you are and you will find your people.

Feeling grateful for former clients who are able and willing to reach back out for additional support when they need it. I feel really honored to know that the work we did and the therapeutic relationship we built is still strong even if there are years in between our sessions. To my former clients: you're always welcome back when life takes an unexpected turn. I'm always rooting for you, no matter how long it's been.

Laughter has been one of the most healing things in my life. Just when I need the relief, laughter comes in to create some levity. Take a moment to ponder what my adorable coworker may be thinking in this moment and create some laughter for yourself.

Far too often I see people that say they wish they would've started therapy sooner. It's a great way to take care of yourself and be able to show up in life the way you want to, instead of just muddling through. Reach out to schedule a session today.

Mother's day is one of the more difficult holidays for lots of people because of how complicated these relationships can be. Sending love to anyone who needs it. If you aren't connected with a mother figure, take a minute to give a hug or share a conversation with any woman you admire instead.

This spoke to me because it's so true. We need moments of joy the most when we're suffering. A good conversation with a friend, a funny movie, time with pets, a warm hug. Don't pass these up when you're going through something. Lean in instead.
