A new mental health and wellness practice has opened its doors in Carson City with a philosophy that might be familiar to fans of the popular tv show Ted Lasso:

“The Mindful Goldfish, a new mental health and wellness practice poised to empower our community with renewed mental flexibility and resilience,” owner Shannon Kossick wrote. “Drawing inspiration from the heartwarming ‘be a goldfish’ philosophy from the Apple+ TV series, Ted Lasso, we champion the liberating idea of moving beyond past challenges with optimism and a fresh perspective.”

According to Kossick, the Mindful Goldfish is dedicated to guiding individuals towards a more fulfilling life, offering an array of therapeutic services designed to cultivate inner strength and lasting well-being:

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS): Discover harmony within your inner world.
  • Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR): Transform past echoes into stepping stones for growth.
  • Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT): Embrace life’s journey with purpose and vitality.
  • Mindfulness-Based Interventions (MBIs): Cultivate presence and calm in your daily life.

“Get ready to deepen your mind-body connection, as trauma-informed yoga services are also coming soon to complete this holistic approach to wellness,” Kossick said.
