As the year ends, gentle reminder: You don't need to have everything figured out by January 1st. No "new year, new you" pressure necessary.
Reflect if it helps. But also know that rest, healing, and simply surviving a difficult year are worth celebrating. Progress isn't always linear, and growth doesn't follow a calendar.
You're doing great already! 🌱

This week, our staff get to experience the joy of seeing our clients' faces light up when they receive holiday gifts -- thanks to the generosity of community donors!
A huge thank you to all of the elves at the Fairbanks Emblem Club 109, Altman, Rogers & Co. and Stoel Rives LLP!
The gifts themselves are appreciated; the feeling that someone took thought, time and care into giving them will last forever.

Grief during the holidays is real and valid. Whether you've lost someone recently or years ago, or you're grieving other losses (relationships, jobs, health, dreams), the holidays can intensify those feelings.
Support options:
Grief counseling/therapy specializing in bereavement

It's okay to not be festive. It's okay to create new traditions. It's okay to feel however you feel. Professional support can help you navigate this difficult season. Call 907-563-1000.
