As Mental Health Awareness Month comes to a close this week, we wanted to take a moment to honor the therapists behind the work. 💜 🧡

The ones holding space for hard conversations.
The ones showing up with compassion, consistency, and care.
The ones helping people navigate grief, anxiety, trauma, identity, relationships, burnout, healing, and growth every single day.

Therapy is more than techniques and interventions. It’s human connection, advocacy, emotional presence, and creating spaces where people feel safe enough to be honest about what they’re carrying.

This week, we asked some of our therapists to reflect on why they became counselors, myths they wish people understood about therapy, and resources they often share with clients. Their responses are thoughtful reminders of the heart behind this work and the importance of accessible, culturally responsive mental health care.

To our therapists: thank you for the emotional labor, the advocacy, the patience, and the care you pour into your clients and communities every day. We appreciate you. 🫶🏾

Join the therapists at Team Zola for a panel discussion, discussing managing emotions without shame!

05/25/2026

After having a baby, intimacy can feel different physically, emotionally, and mentally. In this clip from our webinar, Samantha Kendall, Marriage and Family Therapist, shares a gentle connection exercise for couples to slow down, reconnect, and approach intimacy with compassion instead of pressure.

“Intimacy is not a performance. It’s connection.” 🤍

Sometimes rebuilding closeness starts with small moments of presence, honesty, and care for each other’s nervous systems.

What’s one way you and your partner intentionally reconnect after stressful seasons? ⬇️

Meet Essie Connor, now accepting new clients ✨

Essie is a licensed therapist in MD & VA offering virtual sessions for individuals who may look like they have it all together on the outside, but feel exhausted, disconnected, or overwhelmed underneath. She works especially with BIPOC clients navigating difficulty slowing down, and feeling stuck between who they are expected to be and who they truly are.

Her approach creates space to move beyond just “thinking through” your emotions and into actually feeling and understanding them, so you can build self-awareness, strengthen your voice, and show up more authentically in your life and relationships.

If you’ve been carrying a lot on your own and are ready for something to feel different, this may be your sign.

You don’t have to "earn" your seat at the table. 🪑✨
If you’ve spent your life over-extending, over-preparing, and over-performing just to feel "enough," this is your reminder to exhale. Your worth is inherent. It exists whether you are "on" or "off."

Repeat after me: My presence is enough. Period.

"I should be able to handle this on my own."

It’s one of the most common things we hear, and it’s usually the biggest barrier to actually feeling better. We’ve been taught that seeking help is a last resort, but in reality, it’s a strategic move for your own growth. 🧠✨

Swipe through to see why these common therapy myths might be holding you back from the clarity you deserve.

At Zola, we’re here to help you turn "just talking" into meaningful action.
