Current mood: somewhere between I’m fine and let me check the chart…

The feelings wheel reminds us that every emotion deserves a name. When we can identify what we’re feeling, we can better understand, express, and care for ourselves. 💗

One of my favorite feeling wheels pairs emotions with somatic feelings made by Lindsay Braman!

Remember your feelings are YOURS and valid to have. And if you’ve ever been in my office you know I love to say… two feelings can be true and had at the same time!

Spent the day brunchin and learning! Love that I get to surround myself with so many smart, supportive, and caring clinicians! I always leave this event feeling inspired and in awe at all of the amazing things my colleagues and counselor friends are doing in this field.

Always fun catching up with the other counselors in our area especially my fellow “Harvard on the bayou” graduates. ❤️🖤

Growth doesn’t come from staying comfortable — it comes from challenging yourself 🤍

I talk a lot with my clients about setting goals.. even if those goals feel a little scary! I also love to practice what I preach so I make sure to set my own goal as well!
One thing I had on my 2026 bingo card was completing my LPC-S course — and I did it 🙌 Next stop applying with my licensing board to officially add LPC- S (supervisor) to my name 🎉

Just a reminder: set the goal, even if it feels a little big. You’re capable of more than you think.

What’s something you’re working toward right now?

You can count on me to always match your silly!

In my office I’ll always encourage you to be authentically yourself both in session and outside! 💗
