🔹 Therapists, Our Field Is Evolving—Are You? 🔹

We’re witnessing a massive shift: AI tools and venture capital-backed platforms are encroaching on our space, repackaging mental health and support into scalable “products.”

But here’s the truth: They can’t replicate the human impact you bring.
What they can do is force us to rethink how we show up and serve.

This weekend I spent time with my extended family at our annual reunion—and wow, my heart is full.

We laughed, danced, shared stories, ate way too much food, and simply enjoyed each other’s presence. Being with family reminded me of something I often forget in the busyness of work and caregiving:

It’s okay to pause. To breathe. To just be.

As therapists, we hold so much space for others that we sometimes forget to hold space for ourselves. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or stuck in compassion fatigue—you’re not alone.

Here are 7 gentle ways to get your light back when you’re running on empty:
1. 🌿 Reconnect with joy – Do one thing this week that brings you genuine happiness (no productivity attached).
2. ☀️ Step outside – Let nature remind you of the world beyond your inbox and therapy notes.
3. 🧘🏾‍♀️ Say “no” and mean it – Protect your peace by honoring your boundaries.
4. 💬 Lean into community – Reach out to someone who gets it. You don’t have to carry everything alone.
5. 🎨 Create something – Journal, draw, cook—whatever helps you feel grounded and expressed.
6. 💤 Prioritize real rest – Not scrolling. Not zoning out. Actual rest. Your body and brain will thank you.
7. ✨ Remember your “why” – Revisit what brought you into this work. Sometimes purpose can relight the fire.

💛 You are not just a therapist. You are a human being who deserves care, rest, and joy too.

If this resonates with you, drop a heart in the comments and let’s remind each other to breathe.

📚 Therapists—Are You Trained to Help Students with ADHD Thrive This School Year? 🧠✏️

As kids, teens, and college students head back to school, the need for trained therapists who understand ADHD is greater than ever.

Whether it’s…
➡️ A 6th grader who can’t stay focused in class
➡️ A teen struggling with emotional regulation and peer relationships
➡️ A college student overwhelmed by executive function demands

—these students need support from professionals who get it.

🎓 That’s why I’m offering TWO targeted ADHD trainings to equip therapists with the tools to confidently assess and support children, teens, and young adults with ADHD.

💡 If you’ve ever felt unsure how to differentiate ADHD from anxiety or trauma…
💡 If you want real-world interventions that actually work in session…
💡 If you’re ready to expand your expertise and help more students succeed…

✨ This is your opportunity to get trained, get confident, and get results.

📥 DM me or visit the link in my bio to learn more about the upcoming trainings and secure your spot.

Let’s make this school year a success—for you AND your clients. 💼📓

After 20+ years supporting ADHD clients as both an educator and clinician, and as a parent to a neurodivergent child, I’ve seen the urgent need for deeper, **neuro-affirmative training** among mental health professionals.
