The Story Behind Mental Vitamins™

The name Mental Vitamins™ has been with me for a long time—since I was a teenager navigating one of the hardest transitions of my life.

Halfway through my junior year of high school, I moved to a brand-new place where I didn’t feel rooted, and to be honest, I wasn’t in the best place emotionally. In the middle of all that upheaval, I found myself enrolled in a Psych 101 class. My teacher, Mrs. Beard (hi, if you ever see this!), had a simple but powerful practice: every day she would write a quote on the board and call them “Mental Vitamins.”

Those words stuck with me. Quotes have always held a special place in my heart—they say the things I sometimes struggle to put into words myself. During that season of disconnection and uncertainty, those daily “mental vitamins” gave me a sense of grounding and a reminder that even in difficult times, small, meaningful doses of encouragement can help us keep going.

Years later, when I opened my counseling practice, I knew I wanted to hold onto that idea.

Just like vitamins strengthen the body, mental vitamins are the small, steady doses of insight, reflection, and care that help sustain our minds. Today, Mental Vitamins™ has grown into a space for courses, workshops, and resources—but at its core, it still carries that same heart: to offer nourishment in the moments we need it most.
