🎃 We're Heading to the 9th Annual Howl-O-Ween 5K! 🎃🐾

I'm excited to share that Holistic Hive Directory will be participating as a vendor at this year's Howl-O-Ween 5K Run/Walk, benefiting the Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire!

❤️ This organization holds a special place in my heart. I spent several years volunteering as an Adoption Counselor with the Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire, helping animals find their forever homes. Part of my role included conducting Feline-ality assessments to better understand each cat's personality and help match them with the right adoptive families. I also adopted one of my own beloved feline companions through the organization!

Having participated in the Howl-O-Ween 5K in years past, I'm especially excited to return and support an organization that has meant so much to me.

🐕 Come join us for a fun, festive event supporting animals in need!

A Retreat for Intention-Led Professionals

05/31/2026

Hi everyone! 👋

I'm Kerri Vercellini, LMHC, LCMHC, owner of Awaken Holistic Counseling Services, and I'm excited to announce a new service I've begun offering called Family Regulation Intensives.

Over the years, I've worked with countless parents, couples, and families who felt stuck in recurring patterns of conflict, emotional overwhelm, communication breakdowns, or household stress. Often, families don't need months of waiting to begin making meaningful changes—they need focused support, practical tools, and a fresh perspective.

That's exactly what these intensives are designed to provide.
🌿 Family Regulation Intensives help families: ✔ Improve communication and understanding
✔ Reduce emotional reactivity and conflict
✔ Strengthen connection and cooperation
✔ Create practical strategies for a calmer home environment
✔ Identify the deeper patterns keeping families stuck

This is a concentrated, solution-focused consultation service designed to create momentum and lasting change.

📍 In-person services available throughout the New Hampshire Seacoast and bordering Massachusetts communities

💻 Virtual services available throughout all of Massachusetts and New Hampshire

If you've found yourself saying:
💭 "We're trying everything and nothing seems to be working."
💭 "Our family feels stressed all the time."
💭 "We know something needs to change, but we don't know where to start."..this may be exactly the support you've been looking for.

I'd be happy to answer questions and help determine whether a Family Regulation Intensive would be a good fit for your family.

Helping families create more calm, connection, and resilience—one relationship at a time. ✨

05/22/2026

I’m really excited to begin offering a new service: Family Regulation Intensives. 💛

Over the years, I’ve seen so many loving families struggling with stress, dysregulation, communication breakdowns, overwhelm, and feeling stuck in patterns they don’t know how to shift.

Sometimes families don’t necessarily need long-term therapy — they need focused support, practical tools, nervous system understanding, and a compassionate outside perspective that helps things finally start making sense.

These intensives are designed to help families build:
✨ more regulation
✨ stronger communication
✨ deeper understanding
✨ collaborative problem solving
✨ greater connection within the home

This offering blends holistic approaches, family systems understanding, regulation support, and practical guidance in a personalized way that I believe fills an important gap many families are currently experiencing.

I’m genuinely passionate about this work and eager to help support families in creating more peace, connection, and resilience together.

Serving Coastal NH & nearby surrounding MA areas for in-person services, and all of MA & NH virtually.
Feel free to message me if you’d like more information. 💛
