I provide support to those of us who don't always fit in and have experienced some rough times.

Imagine feeling a sense of calm and being able to sit in stillness… being able to pause and not always react. Instead, think and thoughtfully respond in a way that aligns with the real you (not the pissed off, angry, scared, sad part of you)… this is possible! Did you know we make and break 7.5 trillion synapses per week (Moshkowitz & Golden)? OK… so what? Well, this means there are 7.5 trillion opportunities for change a week… in other words, change is possible for you.

Being human is not easy and it can generate “stuff”. What “stuff” exactly? Well, the stuff I typically work with is anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction and burnout. You know what this looks like for you. It may feel like nothing seems to be helping and you're alone. It's time to reach out to someone that has experience working in this “stuff” because you're looking here and you're ready for a change.

So, OK… how do I work on said “stuff”? Talking is important and we’ll definitely be doing a lot of that... but it's not everything. As you’ve likely felt, memories can get “stuck”. My approach is to help you get your mind and body back on track and in sync because I firmly believe the answers are inside of you… it’s about listening to those answers. There are a lot of tools (i.e. movement, mindfulness, breathing, understanding and listening to our system, eye movement or EMDR, tapping) that we can talk about together and I can be the guide to help you find those answers that will help you get “unstuck”. Ultimately, this approach will be catered to you because nobody is the same.

It’s also important to acknowledge that there are many reasons we respond the way we do and it’s quite normal. There are many systems in our society that are not helpful and incredibly counterintuitive to healthy development. Things like racism, capitalism, ableism, anti-gay prejudice, prejudice towards transgender people, sexism and so much more, they are real and they impact us. How we are impacted can vary depending on our identities and group memberships. I know these are not things that can be changed in a therapy session, but I want you to know we can discuss those larger impacts if that feels comfortable for you. One tool that some have found helpful is this article from Deepa Iyer on social change.

When it comes down to it, you already know what it looks like when you don’t have extra support, so make that incredibly brave decision to care for yourself today.
