In our fast-paced, people-pleasing culture, it can be easy to lose sight of our own needs and desires.

In our increasingly digital world, it can be tempting to opt for the convenience of online therapy sessions.

The holiday season is upon us, bringing its familiar whirlwind of twinkling lights and festive music. However, many of us feel the ever-present pressure to make everything perfect.

The recent election results have left many feeling anxious, worried, and uncertain about the future.

The holiday season can be particularly challenging for those experiencing grief. While others are celebrating, you may be grappling with a profound sense of loss and emptiness. It's important to remember that grief is a normal response to loss. Whether your loss was recent, a year ago, or ten years ago, the holidays have a way of activating our grief. During this time, you might find yourself struggling with conflicting emotions. On one hand, there's pressure to participate in festivities and appear joyful. On the other, you're dealing with the pain of missing a loved one or processing a significant loss. This internal conflict can lead to increased stress, anxiety, and feelings of isolation. It's crucial to acknowledge that there's no "right" way to grieve, especially during the holidays. Some may find comfort in maintaining traditions, while others might need to create new ones. The key is to be gentle with yourself and allow space for your grief. At Insight Counseling and Wellness Center, we understand the complexities of navigating grief during this season.
