Finding the Right Fit: Different Types of Psychotherapy
Did you know there are many different approaches to psychotherapy? Finding the right fit can make a big difference. Each approach offers a different path — and the best therapy for you is the one that feels safe, supportive, and aligned with your needs.
Here’s a quick overview of some common types of psychotherapy:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected. Helps you notice unhelpful patterns and build healthier, more empowering ones.
Psychodynamic Therapy: Explores how past experiences, relationships, and deeper emotions influence your current life. Helps build insight and emotional understanding.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Teaches you to accept difficult feelings rather than fighting them, while helping you move toward actions that align with your values and goals.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Offers skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and building healthy relationships. Originally developed to support people with intense emotional experiences.
Spiritually Integrated Psychotherapy: Incorporates a person’s spiritual or religious beliefs — if desired — into the therapy process, offering a holistic way to explore meaning, healing, and inner growth.
Humanistic Therapy: Focuses on personal growth, self-acceptance, and living an authentic, meaningful life. Approaches like Person-Centered Therapy emphasize unconditional positive regard and empathy.
Interpersonal Therapy (IPT): Centers on improving relationships and communication patterns. Often used to address depression, grief, and life transitions through a relational lens.
Somatic Therapy: Involves the body in the healing process, recognizing that trauma and emotions can live in our physical experiences. Techniques may include breathwork, movement, or body awareness.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR): Originally developed for trauma, EMDR uses guided eye movements to help the brain reprocess distressing memories and reduce their emotional charge. For those with serious eye concerns, you may consider visiting an emergency eye care specialist as soon as possible.
Narrative Therapy: Helps you explore the stories you tell about yourself and your life — and reauthor them in ways that reflect your strengths, hopes, and resilience.
Relational-Cultural Therapy (RCT): Focuses on healing through connection, emphasizing that growth happens within supportive, authentic relationships rather than in isolation.
Art and Expressive Therapies: Use creative processes like art, music, or writing as tools for self-expression, healing, and discovery — especially when words alone aren’t enough.

It’s important to know: Many therapists integrate elements from multiple approaches to best support each client’s unique needs. Therapy is not one-size-fits-all — it’s a collaborative process designed to be flexible and responsive to you. The most important part of therapy is not the model itself, but that the work feels tailored to your goals, your values, and your healing journey.

You deserve a space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered.

Friday Fun on Purpose: Laughter
2025-05-09
Fun isn’t frivolous — it’s a form of self-care. Play, laughter, and creativity help our minds and bodies recover from stress. Laughter is more than just a reaction — it’s a release, a reset, a way our bodies remind us that lightness is still possible, even in hard times. Sometimes when we’re under stress, laughter feels far away, but we can gently invite it back.
Today, give yourself permission to seek out a smile, a chuckle, or even a full-belly laugh — no matter how small.
Ideas to spark laughter:
• Watch a funny video or a favorite comedy clip that always gets you.
• Read a comic strip, a humorous book, or silly children’s jokes.
• Spend time with someone who makes you laugh easily.
• Play a silly game — charades, Mad Libs, Pictionary — even over text!
• Look up “wholesome memes” or “animals doing funny things” online.
• Allow yourself to laugh at something ridiculous or absurd today — even if it’s just how seriously we sometimes take ourselves.
• Re-watch a scene from a favorite sitcom, movie, or show that made you laugh out loud before.
• Try a “bad joke battle” — see who can tell the worst (most groan-worthy) joke and still keep a straight face.
• Listen to a lighthearted podcast or stand-up comedy routine that lifts your mood.
• Try to draw an animal — with your eyes closed. Share it (or don’t) but let yourself giggle at the result.
• Watch “fail” videos of cats knocking things over (sometimes pure slapstick is surprisingly healing!).
• Read “funny autocorrect fails” or “funniest wrong number texts” online.
• Tell yourself a joke out loud — hearing your own voice say something silly can shift your mood.
• Find an old yearbook or family photo album and laugh (kindly) at fashion choices, haircuts, or awkward poses.
• Write a short, ridiculous story — one that makes no sense — and allow yourself to enjoy how nonsensical it is.
• Play a goofy filter game on your phone (some have funny faces or voice changers).
• Have a contest with a friend or family member: who can make the silliest doodle in under 30 seconds?
• Try watching a silent video (like a cooking demo) and narrate it out loud with the most dramatic or ridiculous commentary you can think of.
• Remember a time you laughed uncontrollably — even just picturing it can bring a fresh smile.

MENTAL HEALTH

Nature and Mental Health: Root Yourself in the Moment
2025-05-11
Theme: Grounding through Nature
Nature has a way of helping us feel rooted — literally and emotionally. When life feels overwhelming, connecting with the natural world can bring us back to the present moment. Connecting with nature doesn’t have to mean hiking mountains. It’s about noticing and experiencing the natural world, wherever you are and however you can.
Ideas to try:
• Sit outside and notice the feeling of the ground beneath you.
• Hold a small stone, leaf, or flower and focus on its texture and details.
• If outdoor access is difficult, sit by an open window and take in the sounds of birds or the scent of fresh air.
• Watch a nature video or listen to an outdoor soundscape — like streams, rain, or birdsong.
• Take a “noticing walk” — walk slowly and try to find five things you’ve never noticed before.
• Lie on your back and watch the clouds move across the sky.
• Gently touch tree bark, leaves, or grass and notice the different textures.
• Dip your fingers into a bowl of water and imagine it’s a cool river or ocean.
• Bring a small plant indoors and tend to it, observing it each day.
• Close your eyes and imagine yourself in your favorite outdoor place. Visualize the colors, sounds, and smells.
• Sketch a leaf, flower, or tree branch, focusing on its intricate patterns.
• Sit under a tree and listen to the wind moving through its branches.
• Take photos of small natural details — a raindrop, a pattern in a rock, the veins of a leaf.
• Watch the sunrise or sunset, even briefly, and notice how the light changes.
• Collect a few natural objects (stones, shells, pinecones) and create a small “nature altar” in your home.

Supporting Your Own Mental Health: Ongoing Care and Wellbeing
Mental health care isn’t just something we turn to during times of crisis — it’s a lifelong, vital part of overall wellbeing. Just like we care for our physical health by eating nourishing foods, staying active, or visiting a doctor when needed, mental health thrives when we tend to it consistently and with care.
Even when things are going well, small, steady habits can help maintain mental health gains, strengthen resilience, and create a foundation for navigating future challenges.
Ways to Care for Your Mental Health:
• Prioritize regular sleep, balanced nutrition, and movement (as your body is able and in ways you enjoy).
• Practice mindfulness, meditation, prayer, or relaxation techniques to help anchor you in the present moment.
• Make space for friendships, hobbies, laughter, and rest — they’re essential, not optional.
• Continue therapy, medication, peer support, or self-care routines even after major symptoms improve. Maintenance is progress.
• Set healthy boundaries around work, technology, and relationships to protect your energy.
• Engage in creative expression — art, music, writing, crafts — as a way to explore emotions and reconnect with joy.
• Spend time outdoors when possible, even briefly — nature has a grounding, restorative effect.
• Reflect periodically on your needs and goals — mental health care evolves with you over time.
• Celebrate small wins and moments of growth, even if they seem minor. Progress is not always loud.
• Seek help early if you notice warning signs returning — early support can prevent deeper struggles.
Remember: Ongoing mental health care is not a sign of weakness — it’s a sign of strength, self-awareness, and self-respect. Tending to your wellbeing is an act of courage and love, both for yourself and for those around you. You are worth the time and care it takes.

Enhancing your Relationships through the 5 Love Languages
2025-05-14 19:15 - 20:15 | Maps Counseling Services, 23 Central Square, Suite 300,, Keene, NH, NH, 03431, United States
Enhance your marriage or partnership through learning about the “five love languages”. Sometimes we feel invisible even in our primary relationships because the words we want to hear or the quality time we crave are missing. Your partner may give many acts of service to show their love but not feel appreciated. Understanding your own and your partner’s love languages can deepen your connection and help you feel more adaptable, more giving, more loved!

Friday Fun on Purpose: Micro-Moments of Joy
2025-05-16
Not every fun moment has to be big. Tiny sparks of joy — even just for a few seconds — can brighten your day and lift your spirit. If finding joy feels hard today, that’s not a personal failure — that’s important information. It’s a sign your heart might be carrying a heavy load, not that you’re doing anything wrong. It’s okay to ask for support. You deserve to feel moments of lightness again.
Today, we invite you to gently open the door to small joys — no pressure, no expectations.
Ideas to Explore:
• Try a new kind of tea, coffee, or treat — something comforting or exciting to your senses.
• Watch a funny animal video — dogs in snow, cats causing chaos, birds dancing.
• Call, text, or voice message someone who makes you smile — even a short hello can lift you both.
• Light a candle or diffuse a favorite scent and sit quietly for a moment, soaking it in.
• Step outside and feel the sun or breeze on your skin — even for just one deep breath.
• Play a favorite song and move to it — whether it’s a full dance or just a sway in your chair.
• Wrap yourself in a cozy blanket and sip something warm.
• Give yourself permission to pause — set a timer for two minutes and simply be without doing.
• Doodle something silly without any goal of making it “good.”
• Look around and find one beautiful thing you hadn’t noticed before.
• Smile — even if you don’t feel like it at first. Sometimes the motion invites the emotion.
• Watch the clouds drift by or the trees sway — let yourself be quietly amazed.
• Flip through an old photo album or your camera roll and find a happy memory.
• Wear your favorite comfy socks, sweater, or cozy item — comfort is a form of care.
• Try a tiny “gratitude scavenger hunt” — find three small things you’re glad exist right now (a favorite mug, a comfy chair, a bird singing outside).
Small moments of joy are seeds. Over time, they can grow into a garden of hope.

Creativity is one of the 10 life skills advocated by the World Health Organization (WHO). It is a part of our drive as humans — fostering resilience, sparking joy, and providing a sense of well-being. This 2 hour creative workshop is designed to provide as much or as little direction as you need to jump in and play and experiment with ideas, materials, mediums, colors and textures whether that be through the medium of collage, painting, drawing, or simple mark making. We will have everything you need to play and explore… paint, paper, brushes, glue, markers and all manner of ephemera.

Facilitated by Kelly Lynch, graphic designer, creative director and author of The Vintage Postcard Collage Kit published by Storey Publishing as well as The Art Lover’s Sticker Book published by Workman Publishing and releasing this fall.

Enhance your family life through learning about the “love languages” of children and teenagers. Each of us needs and wants love, but we give and receive love in different ways. Do acts of service make you feel cared for? Or maybe a special gift touches your heart? Maybe being praised is what makes one child thrive, while touch or attention is what another child needs. Come learn and discuss simple ways to strengthen the bond with your children and deepen the sense of care and connection in your family.

Nature and Mental Health: Grow Your Sense of Wonder
2025-05-25
Theme: Wonder and Curiosity in Nature
Wonder is powerful for mental health — it invites curiosity, creativity, and a break from daily stress. Nature offers endless chances to reconnect with wonder, no matter where we are. Wonder is not about doing more; it’s about noticing more. Every body and every pace is welcome in this practice.
Ideas to spark wonder:
• Go outside and find one small thing you’ve never noticed before — a bud, a birdcall, a crack in the sidewalk.
• Take a “wonder walk” where the goal isn’t distance, but simply noticing.
• Tend to a houseplant or watch a time-lapse of seeds growing online.
• Try “sky-gazing” — simply lie back or sit comfortably and watch the sky for a few minutes.
• Look closely at a patch of grass, a puddle, or a tree trunk — notice the small world living there.
• Watch insects going about their work — bees gathering pollen, ants following their trails.
• Keep a “tiny miracles” journal and write down one thing each day that sparked a little wonder.
• Smell a flower, some herbs, or even a handful of soil — notice the layers of scent.
• Listen to the layers of sound around you: birdsong, wind, rustling leaves, distant traffic.
• Watch how sunlight moves across a surface over time — across your floor, a wall, or a garden.
• Set a timer for five minutes and find as many different shades of green (or any color) as you can.
• Find a tree and imagine how many stories it could tell if it could speak.
• Create a small “found nature” collection — gather fallen leaves, feathers, pebbles, or twigs you discover.
• Look up at the stars or the moon — even if just for a minute — and imagine the vastness beyond.
• Notice how rain smells different than dry earth (this scent is called petrichor).
• Look at a flower or leaf through a magnifying glass or close-up camera setting — notice the hidden patterns.
• Try drawing a natural object with your non-dominant hand — and let go of perfection.
• Find two natural objects and imagine a connection or a “story” between them.
• Sit silently outside for 5 minutes and notice how the world moves without your participation.
• Learn the name of one new tree, bird, or flower in your area — just one!
• Blow a dandelion and watch the seeds float away — and notice where your mind goes.
• Stand barefoot on grass, sand, or soil (if accessible) and feel the textures under your feet.
• Let yourself be amazed by something tiny — a dew drop, a spiderweb, a blade of grass.

How to Support a Friend or Loved One Who’s Struggling
It can be hard to know what to say or do when someone you care about is struggling with their mental health. You might worry about saying the wrong thing, or feel unsure of how to help. The truth is, you don’t have to have perfect words or solutions — small, compassionate actions can make a powerful difference.
Ways to Show Support:
• Listen more than you talk. Sometimes the greatest gift you can offer is a listening ear. Allow your friend or loved one to share their feelings without immediately trying to fix, solve, or give advice. Phrases like “I’m here with you” or “That sounds really hard” can be more powerful than any solution.
• Offer specific help. Instead of saying “Let me know if you need anything,” offer something concrete: “I’m going to the store — can I grab you anything?” “I’m free on Sunday if you’d like company on a walk.” Specific offers can feel more manageable and less overwhelming.
• Normalize reaching out for professional help. Seeking therapy, medication support, or other professional services is a brave and healthy step — not a sign of failure. You might say, “A lot of people find it really helpful to talk to a therapist — I can help you find someone if you want.” Let them know they’re not alone.
• Respect their pace. Everyone moves through challenges differently. Be patient if they need time to open up or to take next steps. Avoid pushing or setting expectations for how fast healing “should” happen.
• Check in without pressure. A simple text like “Thinking of you — no need to respond” can be incredibly comforting. It reminds them they’re not forgotten, even if they’re not ready to talk.
• Take care of yourself too. Supporting someone else can be emotionally demanding. Make sure you’re setting boundaries, seeking support when needed, and tending to your own wellbeing alongside theirs. You can’t pour from an empty cup.
• Accept that you won’t have all the answers. You don’t need to have the perfect thing to say. Simply being present — being someone who sees them, believes them, and stays kind — can be a deeply healing experience.
Remember: You don’t have to fix someone’s pain to be part of their healing. Your care, presence, and steady support matter more than you know.

Friday Fun on Purpose: Reconnect with What Used to Be Fun
2025-05-30
When life feels heavy, it can be easy to lose touch with the activities that once sparked joy. Sometimes, what used to feel effortless now feels far away — and that’s okay. Today, we invite you to gently reconnect with a piece of that former fun, without pressure or expectations. It’s not about recapturing the past perfectly — it’s about giving yourself permission to experience a moment of play, however small. Remember: It’s not about doing it “right” or “perfectly.” It’s about inviting a little playfulness back into your day — even just for a few minutes. If the idea of play feels far away, you’re not alone. Sometimes mental health struggles take the color out of life. It’s okay to ask for help. Playfulness doesn’t erase our struggles — but even a small spark of it can help light the way forward.
Ideas to explore:
• Color with crayons, markers, or sidewalk chalk.
• Build a pillow or blanket fort — and sit inside with a book, a snack, or simply your own breath.
• Blow bubbles.
• Skip stones across a pond or throw pebbles into a river just to watch the ripples.
• Play a simple childhood game — hopscotch, hide and seek, catch.
• Play a video game you loved as a child.
• Make paper airplanes and see how far they fly.
• Swing on a swing set and feel the air move around you.
• Watch a favorite cartoon from your childhood.
• Finger paint — no “good” or “bad,” just color and motion.
• Press flowers between the pages of an old book.
• Try “cloud spotting” and find shapes and stories in the sky.
• Play with modeling clay, Play-Doh, or kinetic sand — let your hands lead, not your mind.
• Make friendship bracelets or a simple craft with beads or string.
• Put on music you loved as a teenager and let yourself sing along (off-key is welcome).
• Try jumping rope — even if you laugh and miss every third jump.
• Plant a seed in a small pot and watch it grow day by day.
• Build a tiny “fairy house” out of natural materials like sticks, moss, and stones.
• Relearn a childhood magic trick, joke, or riddle — and share it with someone.
• Have an old-fashioned “picnic” indoors with a blanket and your favorite snack foods.
• Play with water — fill a bowl and float small objects, splash your hands, feel the coolness.
• Blow up a balloon and see how long you can keep it in the air.
• Do cartwheels, somersaults, or spin in a circle — only if your body feels good doing it!
• Create a mini scavenger hunt for yourself or someone you love — even with tiny, silly clues.
• Make up a secret handshake — even if it’s just with yourself.
• Fold origami animals or simple shapes.
• Try making “nature art” with found items like leaves, twigs, or petals.
• Draw a treasure map for an imaginary adventure.
• Pretend you’re a “tourist” in your own town — what small things would you notice with fresh eyes?
• Watch fireflies or listen for frogs at dusk if you can access an outdoor space.
• Wear something that feels playful — bright socks, silly earrings, a favorite old T-shirt.
