Big decisions are being made by Houston families—and with them, big emotions. Whether you're waiting on a school decision, processing a rejection, or choosing between options, the stress can feel overwhelming. As a therapist, I see how much this uncertainty impacts both parents and children. That’s why I recently sat down with Julie Blumberg of Houston School Options for a conversation about how families can approach school decisions with more confidence and less anxiety.

We are excited to share that our very own therapist, Allie Lee, LPC-Associate, has completed specialized training in executive functioning. This advanced training enhances her ability to support clients struggling with organization, time management, emotional regulation, and other cognitive skills essential for daily life.

I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to speak at West U Elementary School today on the important topic of Test and School Decision Anxiety. As middle school decisions are released and standardized testing approaches, I know this can be a stressful time for both students and parents. My goal is to normalize these feelings, provide practical tools for managing anxiety, and remind families that there is a right path for every child—one that aligns with their unique strengths and needs.

We have some exciting news to share at Well Mind Body! Dr. Elizabeth Miller is thrilled to announce that, in addition to her existing role supervising Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), she is now offering supervision to Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs) in Texas!

As a trusted and experienced supervisor in the mental health field, Dr. Miller has had the privilege of mentoring LPCs, guiding them through their clinical hours and helping them grow into competent and confident therapists. Expanding this opportunity to LMFTs allows her to support even more mental health professionals on their journey to licensure, enhancing the quality of care provided to individuals, couples, and families throughout the state.

Last night, Alberta Totz and I had the incredible opportunity to attend the Houston Functional Medicine Meet-Up, where we got to hear Dr. Tom O’Bryan speak.
