Summerlane Counseling

Halfway through the year already? Take this as your gentle reminder to pause and reflect.

The middle of the year can be a powerful time to reflect, reset, and reconnect with what you need. You don't have to wait until January to begin again.

Maybe this summer season is inviting you to slow down. To strengthen a boundary. To ask for support. To make space for healing.

Whatever your next step looks like, know that you don't have to take it alone. 🤍 We're here to help with your summer healing journey- send us a message so we can connect!

You were promised slower days, sunshine, and a chance to recharge. So why do you feel so exhausted?

The truth is, summer isn't always restful. Between family schedules, travel, camps, social commitments, and the pressure to make the most of the season, many people find themselves feeling more overwhelmed than refreshed.

If you've been feeling unusually tired, irritable, disconnected, or simply "off," you're not alone. Summer burnout is real, and it deserves the same care and attention as any other season of stress.

As part of our Summer of Healing, we want to remind you that you don't have to wait until you're completely depleted to ask for support. Healing can begin with something as simple as checking in with yourself and acknowledging what you need.

What would it look like to give yourself permission to slow down this summer? 🌿

🎉 Our Family Strengthening Program Is Officially Underway! 🎉

Summerlane Counseling is excited to begin another season of empowering families through our Family Strengthening Program!

This year marks our 3rd year offering this impactful program using an evidence-based curriculum designed to strengthen family relationships, improve communication, build resilience, and promote healthy family functioning.

We are thrilled to welcome 4 families who have already committed to investing in their growth and well-being this summer. 💙

Over the coming weeks, these families will participate in engaging activities, meaningful discussions, and skill-building experiences that support stronger connections and lasting positive change.

Thank you to the families who have trusted us to be part of their journey. We are excited to walk alongside you and look forward to seeing the growth, healing, and strengthened bonds that will emerge throughout the program.

Thanks to Rise and Recover Selma for the referrals.

Also a Big Shout out to Selma Center for Nonviolence, Truth & Reconciliation for hosting us this year and allowing us to use their beautiful community space.

✨ Three years. Countless lessons. Stronger families. Brighter futures.

Juneteenth is a celebration of freedom and a reminder of the resilience carried through generations.

At Summerlane Counseling, we recognize the importance of honoring history, fostering healing, and creating spaces where every individual feels seen, valued, and supported.

Today, we reflect, learn, and celebrate.

Mental Health Awareness Month may be coming to a close, but at Summerlane Counseling, caring for mental health is something we hold space for every day of the year. 🤍

Through therapy, support groups, workshops, and community events, our hope is to walk alongside people through every season of life with compassion, support, and care.

Awareness is important, but so is feeling supported enough to take the next step when you’re ready. Whether that looks like reaching out, starting therapy, joining a group, or simply giving yourself permission to slow down — we’re here for you.

Awareness is important… but so is action. 💛

Mental health support can look like:
• resting without guilt
• reaching out instead of isolating
• setting boundaries
• asking for help
• saying “no” when needed
• making space for yourself, too

Healing isn’t always found in big breakthroughs. Sometimes it’s found in the small choices we make to care for ourselves every day.

This Mental Health Awareness Month, let this be your reminder that your needs matter, too. ✨

Partnerships that create real impact 🤝

Every connection we build is rooted in one goal: serving our community better.

At Summerlane Counseling, we believe collaboration strengthens the work and allows us to reach more individuals who need support.

We’re proud to be part of a network that is committed to making a difference.

Nothing is wrong with you for feeling overwhelmed— it makes sense based on what you’ve been holding. You don’t have to prove your strength by suffering in silence anymore.

If you didn't know, May is Mental Health Awareness Month and at Summerlane Counseling we're leaning into connection, self-care, growth, and creating space for the things that help us feel grounded and supported through:
- individual therapy (in-person and virtual)
- community events/events for children
- workshops
- support groups
