Take-Home Tools at House of Wellness

Healing doesn’t stop when the appointment ends — and your growth isn’t limited to what happens during a session. At House of Wellness, we believe meaningful change is built on consistency, self-reflection, and small, intentional steps between visits.

That’s why we offer customized take-home tools designed to deepen your insight, reinforce therapeutic progress, and help you stay connected to your goals throughout the week. These tools are not “homework” — they’re an extension of your care, tailored to fit your life and pace.

Journal Prompts

Writing can be a powerful way to process thoughts, emotions, and patterns. We provide intentional journal prompts that help you:

Reflect on recent experiences or triggers

Clarify values, boundaries, or emotional needs

Explore relationships, self-image, or identity

Track progress and emotional shifts over time

Cultivate mindfulness and self-awareness

Whether you journal daily or occasionally, prompts are curated to meet you where you are emotionally.

Worksheets

Structured worksheets give you a framework for understanding and organizing your thoughts. Depending on your goals, worksheets may include:

Cognitive restructuring exercises

Emotion tracking and regulation tools

Boundary-setting templates

Communication skill builders

Self-compassion and self-esteem boosters

These resources support your learning and give you something tangible to return to between sessions.

Action Items

Sometimes growth means taking one small step forward. Dr. Maniar may collaborate with you on realistic, meaningful action items — not pressure-filled tasks, but intentional actions that align with your values and healing. These might include:

Having a difficult conversation with a support person

Practicing a new coping skill

Scheduling a moment of rest or joy

Starting a self-care routine that works for you

Each action item is designed to build confidence and momentum.

Activities

Mental wellness can also involve creativity, movement, and play. You may be encouraged to try supportive activities that help integrate your healing into your daily life. These can include:

Grounding or mindfulness exercises

Body-based practices like stretching or breathwork

Creative expression (art, music, movement)

Connection-based activities with safe people

Nature-based reflection or intentional walks

These activities are selected based on what feels accessible and meaningful to you — not just what “should” be helpful.

Reflections

In every phase of your journey, reflection helps you track growth, gather insight, and reconnect with your purpose. We’ll invite you to return to questions like:

What’s feeling better?

What still feels hard?

What are you learning about yourself?

How are you showing up for your needs — or avoiding them?

What support do you want to call in next?

These reflections often become guideposts for deeper work in future sessions.

Empowerment Beyond the Session

The tools we offer aren’t about doing more — they’re about supporting who you already are and helping you move toward who you want to become. Take what’s useful, leave what’s not, and know we’re here to adjust the plan as you grow.

You deserve care that continues even when the screen closes — because your healing is a daily act of self-respect.
