Are you thinking about counseling but have reservations due to the confusion or shame that you feel around your difficulties?
Eddie wants you to know that counselors are trained to meet you where you are without judgement. He said that you should know they do accept you - exactly as you are - and help you move to where you want to be. He said it is pretty awesome...counselors are like...honorary canines...full and complete acceptance and loads of desire to help.
So reach out today! He asked you not to tell the counselors that he compared them to dogs...though it is the HIGHEST complement he can think of giving...they may not feel the same way 🤣

If a man screams in your face, punches the wall beside your head, throws objects near your feet, or slams doors so hard that the children jump in fear, do not minimize what you are witnessing.

Violence does not begin the moment a hand lands on someone’s body. It often begins with intimidation, with rage meant to control the room, and with fear used as a silent weapon.

You do not have to wait for bruises to appear before recognizing the pattern.

Fear in your own home is not normal, and it is not something you should be expected to tolerate.

What you are seeing is abuse, even before the first blow.

Post traumatic growth emphasizes transforming adversity into strength, focusing on finding meaning, resilience, and personal evolution following trauma. It does not mean that what happened to you was in any way good or caused you to grow. It does mean that once trauma is explored and processed, a part of the healing can be to identify ways in which the adversity has led to development of skills and tools, and can lead to exploration and development in powerful directions.

Counselors can help you in this healing process. Reach out today www.orangetherapy.org

In order to process emotions or events we must allow ourselves to feel them. This thought can be frightening to individuals who have been pusing down emotions and traumatic events for years. This is where counselors can be of assistance. By teaching you how to calm yourself and ground in the present and monitoring your status; counselors can help you remain in a window of tolerance (not too hot or too cold) to finally process the events and emotions and move on to health.

Sometimes people come to see me (Julie) and they comment on the fact that they are overwhelmed and cannot cope. I say "of course not. You could cope if you were whelmed. The nature of overwhelmed is that it IS simply too much to handle. No-one can."
I see a myriad of responses and reactions to this realization from acknowledgment to despair and everything in between. As we begin the work of counseling, people are able to explore boundaries, thought patterns, behaviors, and other components contributing to the sense that life is just too much. As they begin to understand what is going on, and tools are developed, they begin to find a pathway forward. They develop hope and move to a state of regular-whelmed.
Is your world in a state of overwhelm? Reach out today and we will get you started with one of our staff to help you move to a state of healthier functioning. A state of "regular-whelm"

Based on Drs. John and Julie Gottman’s research (), generally happy partnerships have an average of 20:1 positive to negative interactions on a daily basis. It takes FAR more positive to outweigh the negative. This is due to our negativity bias, which exists to help us survive. During times of conflict, that ratio is about 5:1.

If you think of your relationship as an emotional bank account, we want to aim for 20 deposits for every 1 withdrawal.

Deposits are not grand gestures. Fancy getaways or big purchases won’t make up for a lot of negativity. It takes small things on a regular basis to get to this ratio.

Examples of ways to make deposits on a day-to-day basis:

• Turn toward your partner and really listen when they’re speaking
• Offer words of appreciation
• Gestures of physical affection
• Regular acts of service, doing things to take the stress off their plate
• Spend quality time together (ditch the screens)
• Send a text to let them know you’re thinking of them
• Offer to pick something up for them when you’re at the grocery store

Examples of ways to make deposits during conflict:

• Give eye contact
• Nod and show that you’re listening
• Offer vocal bursts to show that you’re tracking the other person, e.g., “mmmmhmmm”, “ahhhh”, or “yeah”
• Offer physical touch if you and your partner are open to it
• Accept influence from your partner (within reason, e.g., “I can see your point,” or “I hadn’t thought about that.”)
