FAITH BASED + HOLISTIC + TRAUMA INFORMED
| Mental Health Practitioners in Louisiana | Our therapist are well trained in several different theories of therapy.

We approach counseling from a wholistic paradigm in which we assess the emotional, physical, spiritual, cognitive, and social aspects in the life of each client. We seek to match the client with the therapy model best suited for the presenting problem and the client's personality.

November is National Family Caregivers Month.

If you're caring for an aging parent, a child with special needs, a spouse through illness, or anyone who depends on you, this month is for you. We see you, and we care.

Caregivers are often the last ones to admit they're tired. It can show up as irritability, poor sleep, getting sick more often, or losing interest in things you used to enjoy. Caring for someone for a long time can easily lead to putting off caring for yourself. It's okay to see your needs too.

Two small things this week: accept one offer of help you'd normally turn down, and give yourself fifteen minutes that belong to no one else.

If you know a caregiver, skip "let me know if you need anything." Offer something specific: dinner on Thursday, or an hour so they can get out of the house.

"He comes alongside us when we go through hard times, and before you know it, he brings us alongside someone else who is going through hard times so that we can be there for that person just as God was there for us." 2 Corinthians 1:4 (NTE)

Lamentations was written in grief, after the destruction of Jerusalem. These words about mercy being new every morning didn't come from someone whose life was going well. They came from the middle of ruin.

If this week was heavy, you don't have to carry it into tomorrow as a verdict on who you are. Tomorrow's mercy doesn't depend on how well the week went.

"The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies are never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness." Lamentations 3:22–23 (ESV)

Here are some of our clinicians with this specialty and openings! 🪴

Red Ribbon Week runs October 23–31 every year, and many schools mark it with substance-use prevention activities. It's also a good prompt for parents and grandparents.

A few things that tend to help:
- ask what your kids are already seeing and hearing before you start explaining;
- aim for short conversations over time instead of one big talk; and
- let them know they can come to you if a friend is in trouble.

If someone in your family is already struggling with substance use, SAMHSA's National Helpline is free, confidential, and open 24/7 in English and Spanish: 1-800-662-4357.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

In some families and churches, keeping the peace has meant keeping quiet.

But Scripture describes God as a refuge for the oppressed, not as someone who asks the oppressed to stay hidden.

The National Domestic Violence Hotline lists warning signs that include a partner who:

- keeps you from friends and family,
- controls the money without discussion,
- insults or shames you in front of others, or
- intimidates you with threatening looks or actions.

The Hotline notes that even one or two of these behaviors can be a red flag.

If that's your story, help is free, confidential, and available 24/7: call 1-800-799-7233 or text START to 88788. If you are in immediate danger, call 911.

"The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble." Psalm 9:9 (NIV)

October is ADHD Awareness Month.

The National Institute of Mental Health describes ADHD as a neurodevelopmental disorder that can show up in three areas:

- inattention (trouble staying on task or organized), -
- hyperactivity (restlessness, moving or talking a lot), and -
- impulsivity (interrupting, trouble waiting your turn).

Some people struggle mostly in one area; others in all three.

Everyone loses focus sometimes.

What sets ADHD apart, according to NIMH, is that these patterns are frequent, show up across settings like home, work, and school, and get in the way of daily life.

NIMH also notes that symptoms begin in childhood and usually continue into the teen years and adulthood, which is one reason some adults don't recognize it until later.

If this sounds familiar, a conversation with a qualified professional is the right next step. No social media post can diagnose anyone, including this one.
