I believe in human rights for all. I believe in treating people with dignity and respect. I believe in keeping kids with their families. I believe in due process. I believe in the constitution and our rights. I believe in the freedom of ALL religions.

We as a country have been dehumanizing and terrorizing communities for hundreds of years. Since the beginning. We can do better. It doesn’t have to be this way.

I believe people deserve safety, housing, food, bodily autonomy and respect.

This isn’t new, I’ve always believed this and will continue to fight for this.

If you’re an EMDR therapist holding more crisis than usual right now, this resource is still what I’m using.

Comment or DM CRISIS and I’ll send it to you.

I’m speaking truth to power. I’m standing up to harm. And I’m taking care of myself so I can keep doing it.

I believed we were capable of more than this.

If you’re doing trauma work right now, neutrality isn’t neutral.

And to be clear from the start, this isn’t a call for those already carrying systemic harm to carry more. Many therapists are living inside the very conditions we’re naming. Capacity, safety, and survival matter.

This is a call to those with relative power, protection, and institutional safety.

Ignoring the current moment is not a neutral act. It is a clinical stance.

Our clients’ nervous systems are responding to systems that are actively shaping safety, access, and belonging in real time. When we treat that impact as irrelevant or “outside the room,” we risk individualizing harm that was never personal.

This isn’t about public activism or perfect language.
It’s about ethical clarity.

Trauma work requires power literacy. It requires honesty about when harm is ongoing, not historic. And it asks us to stop calling neutrality ethical when it quietly protects comfort over care.

Capacity matters. Context matters.
But avoidance is not the same as safety.

Save this if it reflects a tension you’re holding.
Share it if your work feels heavier lately.

We are witnessing horrific acts. This is collective trauma happening in real time.

Violence is being justified as protection.
Harm is being framed as safety.
And we’re being told to stay neutral.

Our nervous systems recognize this story because history has used it before.

If your body feels activated, angry, heavy, or unwilling to calm down, that makes sense. That’s not dysregulation. That’s awareness.

Safety built on dehumanization is not safety.
And healing has never sided with power.

If you’re feeling powerless, do something.
It does not have to be big.
It does not have to be perfect.

Agency matters.
Even small acts remind the nervous system that we are not helpless.

You don’t have to do everything.
Just don’t do nothing.

Also… this isn’t just here at home.
People in Iran are living through brutal crackdowns, massive loss of life, and state violence right now, deaths of thousands in protest movements met with lethal force.
The Iranian people, the Iranian women deserve freedom.

Hate to break it to ya… but you still have to have emotions.

If you think it’s a mental health problem… then why are we defunding mental health???

This will be devastating.

Do something. Make this s**t stop.

I don’t know the answers. One of my biggest fears. So guess it looks like coffee and dark humor for the win.

What we’re living through is not abstract, and your body knows it.

If you feel disrupted, angry, or exhausted, that’s not pathology. It’s conscience.

I hold more privilege than many people being harmed, which means I don’t get to look away. Neutrality isn’t ethical when harm is this clear.

We survive this by staying human, together.

This is NOT Normal!
