This week, Firefly owner Tracy Keller chats with Jeremy Schumacher from Wellness with Jer. Tracy shares her unique journey into mental health, her work with trauma and grief, and how she supports women, teens, and those facing perinatal challenges. She also opens up about balancing motherhood, private practice, and self-care — all while building a supportive community and staying grounded through life’s seasons.

***Podcasts about therapy do not replace actual therapy, and listening to a podcast about therapy does not signify a therapeutic relationship.

  • Ask A Therapist

    Have a question about mental health, emotions, relationships, or how the brain and body respond to stress? We’re creating space to explore the topics that matter most — in a real, relatable, and educational way.

    Ask a Therapist is your chance to submit general mental health questions you'd love a therapist's perspective on.

    We’re here to offer insight and guidance — but please remember this isn’t a substitute for therapy. We won’t be answering personal or case-specific questions (those are best saved for your own therapist).

    Ready to submit a question? We might feature it in an upcoming blog, video, or live chat!
