What feels most important in trauma therapy?

Feeling emotionally safe with your therapist
Having choice and control over the pace
Learning grounding/nervous system tools first
Knowing you don’t have to share every detail

*NEW PERIMENOPAUSE / MENOPAUSE THERAPY GROUP FOR WOMEN*

If you’ve been thinking:
“Why am I suddenly exhausted but wired?”
“Is my brain… buffering?”
“Why am I crying AND furious AND fine within 20 minutes?”
“Why does sleep feel like a prank?”
“Why do I feel like I don’t recognize myself?”
You’re not broken. You’re not dramatic. And you’re not alone.
We’re starting a therapist-led perimenopause/menopause group for women who want:

🫶evidence-based education (no fluff, no fear-mongering)
🫶validation + community (because this can be isolating)
🫶skills for emotional volatility, distress tolerance, self-compassion
🫶help communicating needs + renegotiating roles/ intimacy
🫶tools for medical self-advocacy and spotting misinformation

This season can mess with mood, sleep, body, confidence, and identity. We’ll name what’s happening, reduce shame, and build steadier footing—together.

Register Now! This in-person group will cap at 10 members.

Love that’s calm, kind, and consistent isn’t boring — it’s safe.

This Valentine’s Day, let’s celebrate the green flags — the people who listen, communicate, and show up even when it’s not easy.

Real love doesn’t make you question your worth; it helps you remember it. 💚

Love isn’t supposed to leave you anxious or guessing.
Before Valentine’s Day, let’s discuss the red flags we sometimes overlook when we just want it to work.

Because healthy love doesn’t keep you guessing. It doesn’t make you smaller.
It feels steady, safe, and reciprocal — even when it’s not perfect.

"The snow is now gone in the backyard and I just counted 6 shoes out there" - 👟🥿🩴🥾👡👢

This fb message from my friend left me on the floor! The struggle is REAL 🤣 For me, it's like 5 plastic bowls and empty fruit cup containers lying in the yard. Moms, can you relate?

I am SO GLAD life doesn't require perfection and that it is OKAY TO BE A HOT MESS, because no one I know would survive otherwise. IF you're still living in that mentality of perfection, just know that you don't have to...!

GGC Clinician, Jaclyn Moy's favorite way to relax is: "..reading or watching a show with friends and family. I just finished reading The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennet, which is a fun Sherlock Holmes-esque story in a fantasy world."
