Carrita Counseling and Wellness

Happy Fourth of July! Show us how you’re staying cool — this is how we’re staying cool 🇺🇸💦

As we continue the last day of the heat wave, please stay safe out there. Drink lots of wate. If you are facing a need for temporary cooling, please find this list that was posted for a cooling center near you.

Need to escape the dangerous heat? Cooling centers open in central Pa. Communities are offering free, public places to cool off for those who need them.

We are deeply saddened by the tragedy in Shreveport, Louisiana. All who were affected are in our heartfelt prayers. May comfort, strength, and community surround you in the days ahead.

Your body is allowed to feel safe again. 🌿

If you’ve been living in survival mode for a long time, safety can feel unfamiliar… even uncomfortable.

That doesn’t mean it isn’t available to you.
Your nervous system learned to protect you.
It adapted in the ways it needed to.

And now, gently… at your own pace…
you can begin to show it something new.

Not by forcing.
Not by pushing.
But by creating small moments of safety—
a breath, a pause, a grounded connection.

Healing doesn’t happen all at once.
It happens in these quiet, steady returns.
You are allowed to feel safe again. 🤍

With warmth,

Janet 🩷
