History of Clarity Counseling and Upcoming Transitions

Clarity Counseling was prayerfully founded by Christine Rodriguez, with early support from friends and colleagues Kim Fish and Jill Bishop, and later joined by Mary Clark and Kim Schoenle.

Clarity has operated out of two locations directly across from one another. As part of an upcoming transition, one of these locations will become a Story House Counseling location, while the other space will remain as it has been since October, The Counseling Collective.

As Christine and her employees begin working with Story House Counseling, Clarity Counseling will close. Mary Clark will continue her independent private practice while also working with Story House.

Kim Fish, LLC; Jill Bishop, LLC; Mary Clark, LLC; and Kim Schoenle, LLC will continue their independent practices at The Counseling Collective, located across the street. Matt and Laura Bruce (Holding Space Counseling) and Cody Hardley (associate under Kim Fish) also have offices at this location. These transitions are positive and have been approached thoughtfully.

We recognize that change can bring uncertainty, especially for our clients and the broader community. For that reason, we wanted to share in more detail about these upcoming changes. Please be assured that we remain deeply supportive of one another and firmly committed to serving our community with care and integrity.

We are so appreciative to Christine for paving the way for our private pactices by generously sharing her wisdom and resources. We wish Christine, Becca, Hannah and all our friends at Story House Counseling the very best!

Crying activates the parasympathetic nervous system.

Oxytocin is released.

This is why we all feel so good after a big cry. There’s a sense of calm. Peace + relaxation after the release.

Crying is our body’s way of cleansing intense emotions + stabilizing the nervous system. It’s an energetic release that the body naturally does to cope with overwhelm.

If you start to pay attention, you’ll notice that 9 times out of 10 people’s first response to someone crying is “don’t cry.”

We say this to children. To adults. To anyone who’s crying because most of us have been raised in homes without emotional awareness.

We struggle to understand our emotions— or to hold space for other people who experience intense emotions.

We tell people to stop crying because it’s habit + because we are uncomfortable.

Normalizing crying is so important. Allowing people to cry is a true gift. We just have to learn to be comfortable in sitting with someone’s tears.

HERE ARE SOME THINGS TO DO WHEN SOMEONE STARTS CRYING:

1. Breathe. If you didn’t grow up in a home with emotional awareness, you might automatically say “don’t cry” or “it’s ok.” Pause before you speak it. Just stay conscious + present.

2. As they’re crying, you can ask “is there any way i can support you right now?” They might not answer or may not know. That’s ok, too. They may just want to vent or talk, so listen.

3. If you are in a safe relationship + know this persons likes physical touch, offer that. Silence and the human touch is a healer.

4. Be open: stay conscious to what’s happening within you. Are you uncomfortable or anxious? This will give you a lot of awareness for how your own emotions were dealt with growing up
