Words do matter. Use them to uplift, inspire, and connect. Here are some more thoughts on mindful communication: fundamentalgrowth.com/mindfulness-...

We ALL have the right to free speech; however, if you're using it to hate on others, spread false information, divide and conquer, incite violence, or take away human rights, then how free are you, really?

I love the ocean, but also love to spend time in fresh water. Definitely filled up some of that cup in #Coeurdalene! #naturetherapy #ecotherapy #lakelife

Today is World Nature Conservation Day, and if there's one thing you can do for your mental health and overall well-being, it's caring for the natural world.

If we don’t push beyond our comfort zones, if we don’t face our pain head on, it turns into suffering and we don't heal or grow. And that also feels uncomfortable. So, which discomfort would you like to experience?

Mental health is a dance between our inner and outer worlds, everything is intertwined. We cannot separate ourselves. Taking care of the world around us is also taking care of ourselves. And taking care of ourselves is a gift to the world. #ecotherapy #mentalhealth #wellbeing

Myself and other licensed therapists in the Los Angeles area are offering pro bono crisis therapy services for those impacted by the wildfires. Please reach out if I can be of help and share this with others. Thank you! #LAfires #LA #wildfires #mentalhealth #therapy #crisiscounseling

As the fires rage around Los Angeles, the city I call home (Luckily myself, loved ones, and home are currently safe.), I'm once again reminded of the responsibility we have to mother earth, as we are in a symbiotic relationship and we all need to be cared for. #LAfires #climatechange #ecotherapy

Indeed!

In a time of "build fast and break things, "move slow and build things" is our motto.
