đź’™ October is National Substance Use Prevention Month! đź’™

Prevention begins with awareness, education, and connection. This month, we’re reminded of the importance of having open conversations about substance use, recognizing the signs of struggle, and creating supportive environments where people feel safe asking for help.

✨ Small steps can make a big difference:
đź’› Educate yourself and others.
đź’™ Offer compassion instead of judgment.
🌿 Encourage healthy coping skills.
🤝 Connect loved ones with support and resources.

Substance use can affect individuals and families from all walks of life. By reducing stigma and leading with understanding, we can help build stronger people, healthier families, and safer communities.

Remember, you don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. Reaching out for support is a sign of strength. 💚

🎙️ Podcast Feature! 🎙️

We’re excited to share that Emily Runyan was recently a guest on the Practice of the Practice Podcast with Joe Sanok!

Emily joined Joe for an insightful conversation on:

🏢 “From Therapist to Landlord: Should You Own Your Practice Building?”

Owning a practice building can be a big step for a therapist and business owner—and it comes with plenty of questions, opportunities, and considerations. Emily shares her experience and perspective on what it can look like to take that step beyond being a therapist and into becoming a property owner.

Whether you’re a therapist thinking about growing your practice, exploring private practice ownership, or simply curious about the business side of mental health, this is a great conversation to check out!

🎧 Listen to the episode and hear Emily’s story!

What's the difference between trauma therapy and regular therapy?

Regular talk therapy can be genuinely helpful for many concerns — but trauma usually needs more than conversation. Trauma gets stored in the brain and nervous system in a way that talking alone often can't fully reach. Specialized trauma therapy uses approaches specifically designed to help your brain and body actually process what happened, not just discuss it.

At Tennessee Mental Wellness, all of our trauma therapists are trained in evidence-based, trauma-focused methods — primarily EMDR and Brainspotting — that work at the level of the nervous system rather than just the thinking mind. That distinction is what makes trauma therapy different, and it's what makes lasting healing possible for so many of our clients.

đź’ś September is Su***de Prevention Month đź’ś

Sometimes the people who are struggling the most are the ones who seem to be doing just fine.

Su***de prevention starts with connection, compassion, and being willing to have the conversation.

If you’re concerned about someone:
• Check in and ask how they’re really doing.
• Listen without judgment or immediately trying to fix things.
• Take signs of hopelessness or thoughts of su***de seriously.
• Encourage them to reach out for professional support.
• Remind them that they don’t have to face difficult moments alone.

And if you’re struggling, please know that asking for help is not a weakness. You deserve support, understanding, and someone willing to walk alongside you.

đź“ž If you or someone you know is in immediate danger or thinking about su***de, call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline. In an emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department.

💜 You matter. Your life matters. Your story isn’t over.

💔 Grief Can Happen Even When We’ve Never Met

The loss of Dolly Parton has left many people feeling a deep sense of sadness—even people who never met her, knew her personally, or were part of her inner circle.

And that grief is real.

Sometimes we grieve people we only knew through their music, movies, stories, generosity, or the way they made us feel. Dolly was more than a famous singer. For generations of people, she represented kindness, resilience, joy, comfort, and home. Her passing can bring up memories, nostalgia, and a sense that a small piece of our world has changed.

You don't have to have personally known someone for their life to have mattered to you.

🌿 If you're grieving Dolly—or another public figure you've never met—give yourself permission to feel it.

You might:
• Listen to a song that brings back a special memory
• Talk with someone who understands why their loss feels significant
• Allow yourself to cry or feel nostalgic
• Reflect on what that person represented in your life
• Take a break from social media if the constant reminders feel overwhelming
• Remember that grief doesn't always make sense—and it doesn't have to

There is no “right” way to grieve, and there is no requirement that a loss be personal or close in order for your feelings to be valid.

Sometimes, we aren't only grieving the person.

We're grieving a time in our lives, a feeling, a piece of our childhood, or the comfort that their presence brought into our world.

💗 Be gentle with yourself. Your grief is allowed to be meaningful—even when the relationship was from afar.

CBT: Understanding the Connection Between Your Thoughts, Feelings, & Behaviors 🧠

💭 Have you ever noticed that one difficult thought can completely change your mood—and then influence how you respond?

That’s the foundation of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), one of the most widely used and well-researched approaches to therapy.

CBT is based on a simple but powerful idea:

Our thoughts influence our feelings, and our feelings influence our behaviors.

In therapy, CBT can help you:
✨ Identify automatic or unhelpful thought patterns
✨ Challenge thoughts that may not be accurate or helpful
✨ Develop more balanced ways of thinking
✨ Learn healthier ways to respond to difficult emotions
✨ Practice new skills between sessions and apply them to everyday life

CBT is practical, structured, and focused on building skills you can use outside the therapy room, too.

You don’t have to stay stuck in the same patterns. Learning to understand your thoughts can be an important step toward changing how you feel and respond.

đź’š Ready to explore whether CBT could be a good fit for you? Reach out to Tennessee Mental Wellness to learn more or schedule a consultation.
