Regulation does not have a single look and if sitting still and breathing deeply has never quite done it for you, you are not doing anything wrong. Your body finds its way back to calm through experience, not just intention. Sometimes that looks like a loud concert, a puzzle, a dog on your lap, or dancing in your kitchen for no reason at all. The goal is not stillness, it's finding what actually works for your nervous system and giving yourself full permission to do that.

If you have been struggling to find what helps our team at Strive CLE Counseling is here. Reach out through our website to get started.

Prevention is not just hotlines and crisis intervention. It is the culture we build around the people we love every single day. It's the small consistent ways we show up for each other.

September is Su***de Prevention Awareness Month. The most powerful acts of prevention are often the ones nobody thinks to name.

If you are struggling right now please know that support is available and you don't have to figure this out alone. Reach out through our website to connect with our team at Strive CLE Counseling or call and text 988 to reach the Su***de and Crisis Lifeline anytime.

There is a treatment for depression that most people have never heard of and it is changing lives in a way traditional antidepressants simply cannot.

Spravato is an FDA approved nasal spray designed specifically for treatment resistant depression, meaning it did not respond to at least two antidepressants. It works differently than anything most people have tried before and for a lot of patients the results have been life changing. It is covered by most major insurance plans and available right here at Strive CLE Counseling with a clinical team by your side the entire time.

If you or someone you know has been struggling with depression without lasting relief, this is worth knowing about. Reach out through our website to find out if Spravato is right for you.

It’s kinda chic to actually love your job.

To set up your space with intention. To sit across from someone and know the work you’re doing is going to change something for them.

Getting a teenager to willingly come back to therapy is not a small task. In teenager language that is basically a five star review. 😂

The hardest part of teen therapy is usually just getting them through the door the first time. Once they feel genuinely heard and understood in a space with zero pressure to perform or pretend, something shifts. And that shift is where the real work begins.

If you have a teen who has been struggling and you have been wondering whether therapy could actually help, our team at Strive CLE Counseling works with adolescents and we know how to meet them where they are.

Somewhere along the way rest became something we had to earn.

It was never supposed to be that way. You do not need to justify taking a break today. You do not need to be productive enough to deserve it. Rest is not a reward. It is a requirement.

From our team to yours, happy Labor Day. We hope it is exactly what you need.

Years of higher education and the floor remains one of the most effective tools! 😂

Grounding is a real and genuinely helpful regulation technique and our therapists are leading by example.

If your nervous system has been running on overdrive and you are looking for support that goes a little deeper than laying on the floor, our team at Strive CLE Counseling is here.

If you have been following the Lindsey Clancy case and it has brought up something in you, we want you to know that what you are feeling makes complete sense.

mental health struggles do not always look dramatic. Sometimes they look like not feeling connected to your baby and not understanding why. Feeling like you are just going through the motions. Crying without knowing the reason. Feeling irritable or rageful in ways that do not feel like you. Intrusive thoughts that scare you. Not being able to sleep even when the baby is sleeping. Feeling like everyone would be better off without you. Feeling like you are watching your life from the outside.

These are not signs that you are a bad mother. They are signs that you need and deserve support.

Postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis are real medical conditions and they are far more common than most people talk about.

If any of this resonates, you do not have to figure it out alone. Our team at Strive CLE Counseling is here to support you. And if we are not the right fit for what you need, we will make sure you get connected to someone who is.

You are not alone in this. Reach out through our website, drop us a dm or call us at 440.201.4488@

✨ Tip Tuesday with Raquel ✨

Your body was literally designed to heal through laughter and most of us are not using it nearly enough. The physical and mental benefits are real. Lower blood pressure, reduced muscle tension, natural pain relief, and a genuine lift in mood all from something that costs absolutely nothing. So whatever makes you laugh until your stomach hurts, find more of it this week. Your nervous system will thank you.
