Grateful to be featured in this month’s ALT Magazine alongside other local mental health professionals.

On World Mental Health Day, I encourage everyone to remember that you don’t have to wait until you’re struggling to prioritize your mental health. Sometimes, the first step toward feeling better is simply having an honest conversation.

Thank you, ALT Magazine, for helping bring awareness to such an important topic in our community! 💚

Today is National Mental Health Day. Take time to focus on yourself. You are worthy. You are needed. You are loved. Don’t give up. 💙

Here are a few quotes from this month’s issue. Please pick up a copy and read the full stories.

“Asking for help is not a sign of weakness. We all experience times when life feels harder, and there is no shame in needing support..." To someone who feels like they have to carry it all alone, "You do not have to do it alone. It takes strength to know when it is time to ask for help." She adds a reminder she offers often in her practice: "'No' is a complete sentence. You don't have to explain or apologize for protecting your time, energy, and peace." - - Karen Johnson, Olive Tree counselling

If You Could Give Every Person In Texarkana One Piece Of Advice About Taking Care Of Their Mental Health, What Would It Be?
Do not wait until you are falling apart to take care of yourself.
Pay attention to the small changes. Notice when you are not sleeping well, when you are withdrawing from people, when you are constantly on edge, or when you just do not feel like yourself.
Talk to someone you trust. Slow down when you need to. Take care of your body. Ask for help before things become overwhelming.
Mental health care does not have to start in a crisis. Sometimes it starts with one honest conversation.

- Grant Barnett, Barnett Wellness Clinic

—————

What can we do as a community to reduce the stigma surrounding mental health?
Model the behavior we want to normalize. When community leaders, parents, teachers, healthcare professionals, and others openly prioritize their own mental well-being, it sends the message that caring for mental health is simply part of caring for ourselves and not something we do only in crisis and separate from our overall health and wellness.

- Jacquline Russell, The Healing Nook

Today, we remember not only the lives lost on September 11, 2001, but also the lives forever changed by what happened that day.

Trauma does not always end when the immediate danger is over. Grief, fear, survivor’s guilt, and the weight carried by first responders, service members, families, and communities can remain for years.

May we honor those we lost by choosing compassion, courage, service, and unity.

We remember. We honor. We will never forget. 🇺🇸

IT IS TIME! Reader's Choice Nominations are here!

Remember: At least the top five that were nominated will make it to the voting.

Voting is in November.

Earlier in August, we had a post asking the public to submit your suggestions and opinions for this year’s categories. We may do the same again next year, so be sure to mark your calendars!

With so many wonderful businesses, organizations, and individuals in our community, it’s simply impossible to include a category for everyone. We do our best to recognize as much of our community as possible, but there are always other deserving categories than we have room for.

Thank you for your continued support, participation, and enthusiasm for the categories listed. We truly appreciate it and are grateful to have such an great community!
