Nov 6, 2023

As the holidays approach, Salt River Therapy is making more resources available to help people cope with issues including family stress, isolation, and mental health issues that come up over the holiday period. These resources include social support and ways to deal with problems.

Many people are experiencing a rush of emotions as the holiday season draws near, and for some, the idea of attending family gatherings might present a unique set of challenges. Salt River Therapy, a reputable boutique therapy practice in Brooklyn, New York, is pleased to announce that it is increasing its availability to better serve people in need of support this holiday season.

Although the holiday season is frequently celebrated as a time of happiness and warmness, it can also be a time of increased stress and emotional strain. Old dynamics reappear when family members meet together, and people may experience a variety of typical mental health issues. Anxiety, depression, loneliness, and heightened interpersonal conflicts are a few examples of these.

Teresa Thompson, Founder and Senior Therapist at Salt River Therapy, explains, "While the holidays can be a source of joy and connection, they can also trigger feelings of isolation and anxiety. People often feel pressured to meet unrealistic expectations, and unresolved family issues can resurface, leading to emotional distress."

Jack Skelton, Associate Therapist at Salt River Therapy, adds, "It's important to recognize that these feelings are normal and that seeking therapy during this time can be immensely beneficial. Therapy provides individuals with tools to manage stress, cope with difficult emotions, and improve their relationships with loved ones."

Therapy during the holiday season can offer a lifeline to individuals facing various challenges:

  • Coping with Holiday Stress: The pressure to create the "perfect" holiday experience can be overwhelming. Therapy helps individuals manage stress and set realistic expectations, allowing them to enjoy the season more fully.
  • Managing Family Dynamics: Family gatherings can bring both joy and tension. Therapy offers strategies for navigating challenging family dynamics, setting boundaries, and improving communication.
  • Combating Loneliness: For those who may be spending the holidays alone, therapy provides a supportive space to address feelings of loneliness and explore strategies for connection.
  • Addressing Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD): Some individuals experience Seasonal Affective Disorder during the winter months. Therapy can help individuals develop coping mechanisms and explore treatment options.
  • Overcoming Grief: The holidays can intensify feelings of grief for those who have lost loved ones. Therapy offers a compassionate and understanding environment to process grief and find ways to honor cherished memories.


Salt River Therapy's dedication to giving clients a secure, compassionate, and private place endures, especially throughout the holiday season. To meet the rising demand for therapeutic services, the practice is increasing its availability, ensuring that people have access to the help they require.

Depending on their comfort and desire, clients can schedule sessions with Salt River Therapy either via the internet or in person. While in-person meetings are offered at Salt River Therapy's office in Downtown Brooklyn, virtual sessions are more convenient for customers in across New York and New Jersey. Take the first step and set up a time to talk with their therapists by scheduling an initial phone consultation with them.

"During the holiday season, it's crucial to prioritize mental well-being and seek support when needed," emphasizes Teresa Thompson. "Our therapists are dedicated to helping clients build resilience, foster emotional well-being, and create a meaningful and manageable holiday experience."
