Pride Month is a time to celebrate love, identity and courage to be yourself!

While we celebrate, we also recognize that not everyone feels supported or understood. If you’re struggling, feeling overwhelmed or simply need someone to talk to, our therapist are here to listen and support you.

You don’t have to navigate this alone.

If you have a chance, go check out the brand new New Pathways building on June 26th for their open house. I got to tour the building this morning and WOW! It is beautiful!! The spaces were built with so much intentionality to help families find comfort and peace in a time of stress and uncertainty. It is a space that will bring hope!

It is graduation season, which means many families are preparing to say goodbye as their child heads off to their next adventure. For some, it's the first child leaving home, for others, it may be the second, third, fourth - and each transition can bring its own challenges and emotions. This season can be difficult for parents, couples and families as they adjust to changing household dynamics and the mix of pride, excitement, sadness and uncertainty that often comes with these milestones.

Graduation can also be emotionally challenging for the students. They may be feeling sadness and grief due to losing the community and routines that they have known for so long, feeling anxious about what comes next, while also experiencing excitement about finally being an adult.

Feelings of grief during times of transition can be surprising and unexpected. Feeling both intense pride and deep sadness at the same time is completely normal! Major life transitions, even happy ones, can trigger emotional and physical stress responses, sometimes leading to heightened anxiety, sadness and discomfort.

Remember: you are not alone! We are here to support you as you navigate all of the emotions graduation season can bring.

Do you and your partner find yourselves clashing over parenting styles?
Do these differences lead to tension or conflict at home?
Have you suggested therapy, but your partner isn’t quite ready to take that step?

You’re not alone—and there are ways to move forward together.

The Gottman Institute is offering a low-cost webinar designed to help couples navigate parenting differences with more understanding, cooperation, and productive communication.

Learn practical strategies to reduce conflict and strengthen your partnership—while staying aligned as parents.

Parenting is deeply personal. The way we respond to our children is often shaped by how we were raised, what our homes were like growing up, and the values we learned along the way.
When partners bring different parenting experiences and expectations into their relationship, those differences can sometimes lead to tension or misunderstandings.
In this webinar, we’ll explore how childhood experiences shape parenting perspectives and how couples can navigate those differences in a way that strengthens their partnership.
Drawing on Gottman research, participants will learn practical tools to communicate more effectively, reduce criticism and defensiveness, and work together as a parenting team.
Because raising kids is easier when you feel like you’re on the same team.

New Pathways has built a 24/7 shelter so families are no longer required to bounce back and forth between temporary shelters. New Pathways is a great resource for families in need!

✨ Big things are happening at our new 24/7 shelter… and we are getting so close! ✨

We’ve officially reached the inspection phase 🙌 — a HUGE milestone in this journey! Every step brings us closer to opening our doors and welcoming families into a safe, stable place to call home.

🛋 Furniture installation is set for mid-May (we can hardly wait to see it all come together!).

🔧 Inspections are underway
💛 And behind the scenes… so much is happening that it’s honestly hard to even grasp all the moving pieces.

What we do know is this: hope is being built here.

We are beyond excited to have our families fully moved in and comfortably settled into this beautiful new space in August. This dream has been years in the making, and seeing it come to life is something truly special.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us — we couldn’t do this without our incredible community 💛
