Your First Counseling Session at Moonstone Wellness: What to Expect
"Taking the step to begin therapy is a significant one, and it's completely normal to feel unsure about what will happen in your first session. At Moonstone Wellness, we understand how important it is to feel comfortable and informed as you begin this journey. In your first session, you'll be greeted with warmth in a safe, welcoming space where your clinician will take the time to get to know you, answer any questions, and discuss your goals. We believe in creating a space where you can feel heard, respected, and supported from the moment you walk through the door."
Transforming Trauma: The Power of Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)
"Healing from trauma is possible. Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) helps children and teens process difficult experiences, build resilience, and reclaim their sense of self. At Moonstone Wellness, we offer compassionate, trauma-informed care where families can feel supported on their path to healing."
The Power of Empathy: Why Showing Up for Others Changes Everything
"Empathy is different from sympathy. While sympathy is feeling sorry for someone, empathy is the ability to deeply understand and share in their feelings without judgment. It’s about stepping into their shoes, feeling their emotions, and offering a compassionate response. When we show up for others, we’re often showing up for ourselves in the process."
