June is PTSD Awareness Month.

One of the largest hallmarks of PTSD is avoidance.

Avoiding thoughts, feelings and external triggers provide temporary relief. Continuing to avoid interferes with real recovery, however.

PTSD is treatable. It won't be easy, but you don't have to face it alone.

When you are ready, we'll be here.

Happy Friday, everyone!

Many of you have seen Michele Rickman's post on the Psych Solutions page.

I'm excited to share that I will be seeing clients one day a week in Michele's Baxter Springs office. I am looking forward to working alongside Michele and her team and expanding access to services in the area.

The rest of the week, I'll continue seeing clients in my Pittsburg office at Got Your Six Counseling.

Just to be clear—Got Your Six Counseling isn't going anywhere! Pittsburg will remain my home base, and I am fully committed to serving my clients there. This new opportunity simply allows me to collaborate with a great team while continuing to grow and support our communities.

Thank you all for your continued support. I appreciate each of you!

Have a great weekend!
