At our core, trauma and dissociation specialized practice is about giving voice back to what was silenced — pain, parts, stories, identities, and truths that were never safe to speak before.

Today, on this National Day of Service, we’re reminded that healing doesn’t happen in isolation. It happens in community and connection, in action, and in choosing—again and again—to show up for what matters.

✨ Service can look like:
• Advocating for human rights and mental health access
• Supporting marginalized and underserved communities
• Volunteering locally or donating to organizations doing the work
• Checking in on someone who may be struggling
• Using your voice when silence feels easier

For those of us living with trauma, speaking up can feel risky. And yet, every small act of courage, connection, and care matters. Collective healing is built through collective action.

Today, we invite you to do one thing — big or small — in service of compassion, justice, and healing. Because caring is not passive. Healing is not neutral. And your voice matters.

🩵 Therapy is Cool.
🩵 Community care is powerful.
🩵 And service is one of the ways we keep hope alive.

New blog! But also a content advisory if you're planning to watch the show for reference. The blog is centered around the outcomes from working as a team (or plural system). Please take care of yourself if you choose to watch the actual show. SEAL Team on Paramount, includes combat, trauma, moral injury, and mental health challenges in true to life fashions. Please use discretion, especially for those sensitive to discussions of violence, PTSD, or military-related stress.

By Heather (LS) Scarboro LCMHC-QS, LCAS, NCCPop culture doesn’t always do justice to complex inner experiences—but every now and then, we find meaningful parallels in unexpected places. Fans of the television series SEAL Team know it as a show about elite Navy operators navigating missions, trau...

🌍 Human Rights Day 🤝💙

Today on Human Rights Day, we honor the truth that dignity, safety, and belonging are universal rights — not privileges. For many, especially those living at the intersections of marginalized identities, these rights are still fought for daily.
We stand firmly with survivors, with LGBTQ+ communities, with BIPOC individuals, and with all people whose humanity has been ignored, questioned, or harmed by systems of oppression. Your identity, your story, and your healing matter.

As a trauma-focused, LGBTQ-allied, and culturally responsive practice, we reaffirm our commitment to:

✨ Providing affirming, identity-centered mental health care
✨ Supporting and uplifting BIPOC clients whose resilience is often demanded, not acknowledged
✨ Protecting safe, inclusive therapeutic spaces for all bodies, genders, cultures, and lived experiences
✨ Centering survivor autonomy, agency, and voice
✨ Challenging racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, and all forms of systemic harm
✨ Advocating for a world where safety, identity, and self-expression are respected — never debated

Healing is a human right.
Safety is a human right.
Cultural identity is a human right.
Authenticity is a human right.
Love is a human right.

Today and every day, we walk alongside you — honoring your truth, protecting your dignity, and supporting your healing journey with compassion and respect. 💛🏳️‍🌈✊🏽

Pop culture helps us understand the world around us. Here's a new blog about how 90's HipHop helped create the HST of today. Take away: adversity can be an opportunity.

This is a follow up to the original EMDR phase 2, working with dissociative systems. It doesn't have to be 100% percent or even close to perfect communication to still, "go with that."

Today is World Su***de Prevention Day.
We know that suicidal thoughts often grow out of deep pain, trauma, and feelings of isolation. We also know that healing is possible, connection matters, and no one has to carry their struggles alone.

This year’s theme, “Creating Hope Through Action,” reminds us that every small step — reaching out to a friend, checking in with a loved one, or seeking support from a professional — can make a difference.

If you are struggling, please know: your life matters, your story matters, and you are not alone. 🩵

📞 If you or someone you love is in crisis, dial 988 (Su***de & Crisis Lifeline) for immediate support.

Together, we can build a world where hope feels possible. 🌱
