A new offering…

Ritual for mental health, emotional resilience, and meaning making. An embodied practice, a somatic experience, grounding. Ritual as expression and art therapy. Ritual for intention setting and as a daily practice for regulation. Ritual for closure, grief work, and community. Ritual for strengthening intuition and instinct.

This seasonal, four part workshop series focuses on meaning making and ritual infused with somatic practices, community, and finding joy. While we will talk about mental health, regulation, and emotional resilience, this is not a therapy group. This is a workshop, an education space, and an experience.

So many clients wanted to talk about how to take care of themselves this weekend and over the coming weeks. Here are a few general tips, but the biggest one would be… go to therapy. 😌💛

It is fairly typical that as the cold and darkness settle in, therapists get busier! Even so, I am keeping the kettle full and ready, to provide some extra warmth for my in person clients. ✨🫖☕️✨

What is healing for people in therapy isn’t that a therapist will have some all knowing answers to the problems of the world. The healing happens in the process. It is in the trusted connection, the safe place, and the vulnerability that growth happens. Most importantly, it happens in the relationship.

Relationship. This was such a key word for me in graduate school. What do social workers do? We do relationships. We connect and support. Relationships that are the grease on the gears of the systems we move through. As an outreach worker for homeless youth, part of my job was creating connections at other shelters and agencies. And now, as a therapist, I often describe my work as being grounded in relationship. I work to create an environment of care and respect for my clients. I also push myself to be open to feedback and to gently offer feedback to my clients, so that you can grow through reflection- and I can grow as a clinician.

This is not easy work, but it is so necessary. It is through this practice that we strengthen our ability to tolerate the distress that is required for relationship repair. In our culture, there is a major push toward individualism and away from interdependence which requires repair and staying connected through conflict. We too easily retreat to our corners, disengage, or write people off. Collectively we need to strengthen our relational repair muscles! 💪✨

Here’s a gentle reminder for your summer: Make space for nothing.
We get so caught up in doing —all the hustle of maximizing summer.
My suggestion… make time in your calendar to just be. No plans. No pressure. Ideally, aim for a full day — but even a few hours will do. If someone asks, “What are you doing this weekend?”
You can say (or know), “I have plans, I’m doing nothing.”
Don’t overthink it. Let it unfold however it wants.
🌞 On your day of nothing, follow your body’s lead. Sleep in. Go for a slow walk. Sit in the sun. Cook something nourishing. Read that book you’ve forgotten about. Stretch. Sway. Move. Rest. Tend.
Stay off social media if you can. If you feel any sadness or restlessness, sit with it. Notice it. Honor it. Be curious about it. This is how we strengthen deeply knowing — slowing down and tuning in.
This is a compassionate way to care for yourself. To release the expectations of others. To offer yourself this care. 💛
