Flamingo Trauma Recovery

Flamingo Trauma Recovery Merging mental health and faith for women of color and underprivileged communities.

02/27/2026

Flamingo isn’t just joining the conversation on trauma-informed spiritual care, theology, and intervention — we’re helping set the standard.

Before the Couch is where Christian clinicians learn to name spiritual injury, think theologically with integrity, and intervene without replicating harm.

Meet .aneiza who will be leading our Culture and Mental Health sessions once a month after your therapist led sessions. Certified in Trauma-Informed Spiritual Intervention, Valerie is here to answer questions and stir up conversation about diagnosis, medication, spiritual warfare, counseling and the Gospel.

If you know there’s a deeper, safer way to address the spirit in your work, apply and register for Before the Couch today.

You’ve already done the hard part: surviving without the help you actually needed.

Through the Before the Couch Therapy Readiness Programs, we meet you halfway. Starting with education that speaks your language and ending with funding that backs it up.

When you show up to Before the Couch sessions, you’re not just getting information; you’re getting one step closer to 12 weeks of sponsored therapy with a therapist who understands your faith, your culture, and your capacity.

How it works:
1. Choose a program with sessions that align to your needs the most
2. Accept the Calendar Invites to Join Sessions
3. Get help with choosing the right therapist for sponsored services

Sessions:
On Sunday evenings, you’ll meet one of the clinicians leading our groups, learn how they work, and get tools and language on how to advocate for the work you need done.

Not every therapist is your therapist and that’s okay. You’ll learn how to spot the therapist that’s your type and has the expertise that you need.

If you’re serious about therapy but tired of wasting time and money, this is your halfway point. We bring the education and funding. You bring your story.

You need to know: that feeling isn’t random, and it isn’t a life sentence. It’s your body signaling unresolved stress, and it can be retrained without wasting time or money.

If your heart drops around 6 p.m. on Sundays, you’re far from alone. Over 75% of workers experience these “Sunday scaries,” with nearly 80% struggling to fall asleep that night compared to other days.

For high-achieving women of color succeeding at work yet battling hidden anxiety from cultural pressures and systemic stress, it’s often a silent high-functioning dread that steals your peace.

Before the Couch: Therapy Readiness Program reimagines your Sundays, blending faith, therapy prep, and deliverance where you stand.

Turn that 6 p.m. panic into power: gain self-advocacy, clarity for therapy (no more bad fits), and sponsored clinical sessions upon completion.

High-achievers like you deserve stability that matches your success. Take back your Sundays, your mind, your mental health. 🌿

This discussion is for listeners, learners and individuals who are curious to know how to demonstrate faith authentically while confronting past and present realities.

What’s fascinating about learning more about your own mental health is that you inevitably find out that though we are all distinctly different, humans turn out have a lot in common. We can validate every unique experience and recognize the impact of it, while also understanding that any one of us could easily be in the same shoes.

Being human levels the playing field for both the spiritual and the non-spiritual — the religious and the nonreligious. Some see their humanity as just a limitation to spiritual perfection while others see their humanity as a mission for survival. This discussion is for those who find themselves somewhere between the two ideas

The first installment of a three part series on Mental Health and Christian Spirituality starts with the topic of humanity and how to pursue full integration of your authentic self and authentic faith. Whether you grew up in church or joined faith communities later in life, there is often tension between the reality of your experience and the invisible truths that you may feel expected to believe.

Join the discussion with your questions in hand as we chat with experts who devote study to the human experience and the aspect of if humanity that affects us as spirit beings. Comment “RSVP” for the link!
