Miranda Counseling Counseling for children, teens, adults, and couples. Clients may be dealing with past trauma, anxiety, family relationship issues, attachme Parenting is hard.

Including Play Therapy, EMDR, Art Therapy, and other evidence based therapies for individuals and family's in need. Our approach at Miranda Counseling may seem unique, but we truly put an emphasis on the whole family. Many well trained therapists make the mistake of working with only one member of a family: the child, or the parent. We believe in a holistic approach: making sure the entire family is healthy and functioning. Every parent has a “guilt” button and worries they are “screwing up.” Often children believe they are the problem and if only they weren’t the family would be happy (divorce, abuse, anxiety, etc). A therapist helping a child understand they are loved is one thing, but how much more powerful would it be to have the parent in session with their child to help them heal? Period. We shouldn’t have to do it alone, and we all need help. Our team of therapists are trained to meet with you and your family and help all of you communicate and have the relationships you want.

What would a therapist put in your trick-or-treat bag? Forget the full-size candy bars… we’re handing out the things we really want you to have this Halloween:

A little self-compassion — because you’re doing better than you think.

Healthy boundaries — “No” is a complete sentence. Even at the holidays.

A reminder to breathe — it is amazing how much a deep breath can make things a little better.  

Permission to rest — you don’t have to earn it.

A giant scoop of perspective — not everything needs to be fixed today.

Some emotional regulation skills — because sometimes you just need to pause before you react.

A handful of “I’m allowed to feel this” — feelings aren’t bad or wrong. They’re information.

And, of course… actual candy. Because we all need a little something yummy. 

Trick or treat yourself to a little extra kindness this Halloween. Which one would you want in your therapy trick-or-treat bag?

We spend so much of our day asking our brains to keep up—work, school, responsibilities, notifications, decisions, and everything in between.
Today, take 5 minutes to pause and give your brain a little care.
🌿 Step outside and take a few deep breaths.
💧 Drink some water.
📵 Put your phone down for a few minutes.
🎧 Listen to a song that makes you feel good.
🧘‍♀️ Stretch, breathe, or simply sit quietly.
💬 Check in with someone you trust.
😴 Give yourself permission to rest.
Self-care doesn’t have to be complicated or take hours. Sometimes, a few intentional minutes can be a meaningful reset.
This World Mental Health Day, take a moment to care for the mind that carries you through every day. 💚
What will you do for your brain today?

“Whatever comes my way, I can handle it.”

Anxiety often wants a guarantee that everything will be okay. But life doesn’t always give us certainty.

Often we cannot eliminate the unknown, but we can work to to build trust in ourselves that we can meet whatever comes next.

School is back… and maybe it’s time for a little quiet time for you, too. 🤍

The backpacks are packed. The kids are back in routines. And after a summer of constant noise, snacks, questions, activities… the quiet can feel pretty amazing.

Give yourself permission to enjoy it.

Drink your coffee while it’s hot.
Sit in the quiet for a few minutes.
Take a walk without answering a hundred questions.
Breathe.
Do something that fills you back up.

Quiet time isn’t selfish. Rest isn’t something you have to earn after taking care of everyone else.

Sometimes taking care of your family starts with taking a little care of yourself, too. 

Caregivers of kiddos, what are you doing with your first little pockets of quiet now that school is back?
