Everyone’s getting ready for Christmas.
And my tree has no ornaments.
There’s laundry in the chair.
And my mom is dead.

When your mom dies, the holidays do not land the same. If she was the one who held the magic, the traditions, the feeling, there is no roadmap when she’s gone. Grief is trauma because it is a break in attachment, and holidays make that rupture louder.

Sometimes grief shuts down executive functioning. You cannot organize, decorate, or care the way you used to. And that has to be okay. This may be what Christmas looks like this year, and that is allowed.

If you love someone who has lost their mom, reach out. Say her name. Drop off food. Send a note. You will not remind her she is grieving. She already is. What you will remind her is that she is not alone.

If this season feels bare, you are not broken. You are grieving.

If you are grieving and want a list of 101 grief and trauma distress tolerance tools, type TOOLS below and I will send it to you.

The school shooting at Brown.
The sudden, violent murder of the Reiners here in Los Angeles.
It has been a lot to hold.

The last few days have felt unbearably heavy. Another wave of collective grief layered on top of personal grief, especially during the holidays.

If you are missing your person right now, I am so sorry.
There is no timeline for grief. What hurts for you, hurts for you. It all counts.

Every time there is another school shooting or a sudden act of violence, it brings me right back. Not because I want to go there, but because trauma and grief live in the nervous system. They do not follow a calendar. They do not respond to “you should be past this by now.”

I do not consider myself a healer.
I am someone who knows what it feels like to walk through some of the darkest days of a life shaped by loss and gun violence. I believe that matters.

As a grief and trauma therapist, my work is not about fixing you. It is about helping you regulate, surrender to the waves of grief when they come, and learn how to stay present in your body when everything in you wants to shut down. I share what has helped me, what did not, and what I have learned along the way. This work is not about me. It is about you, your pain, and your story.

Talk therapy alone cannot reach everything. Trauma lives in the body. Healing has to include the nervous system.

If you are grieving and feeling overwhelmed, you are not broken. You are human. And you do not have to do this alone.

If it feels supportive, you are invited to join me for my Healing With Horses somatic grief retreat. We slow things down, work gently with the body, and let the herd and community hold what words cannot.

Comment MALIBURETREAT if you want details.
I would love to have you meet the herd and this beautiful, steady community. 🤍

✨ Malibu Retreat Part 2 ✨
April 30 — May 3, 2026

Last time was life‑shifting. Real. Deep. Healing that didn’t just feel good … it moved something in you. Something old, stubborn, unspoken. We saw tears. Laughter. Breakthroughs that stuck.

Now we’re coming BACK. And this time it’s even more intentional. Deep. Nourishing. Held.

If you felt called before … this time you’ll know.

This isn’t a trip.
This is a reset.
This is a reclaim.
This is the part where you finally let the inner you show up fully.

Malibu waves
Quiet mornings
Healing with horses
Real connection
Deep release
And a community that sees you

Spaces are limited because transformation isn’t crowded.

When you’re ready… you’ll know. 💥

"But the real work for an empath isn’t to love harder; it’s to tone down the hyper-attunement and turn that empathy inward. It’s to stop confusing emotional labor with love and to stop mistaking chaos for connection."

Angela Schellenberg Counseling

Hello,

I’m Angela Schellenberg. I a trauma therapist and I specialize in grief, loss, and trauma. If you are looking for a trauma-informed and trained counselor/coach then you have come to the right place. I love helping clients work through the challenges in their lives. I am a humanistic counselor and I use many different modalities and theories because I never believe there is just one method that works for everyone. I am trained in EMDR, Restorative Retelling for Violent and Sudden Death, EFT Tapping, and Matrix Reimprinting. I enjoy working with individuals, families, couples, and children. I work with grief, loss, and trauma. I am passionate about helping clients manage depression, anxiety, and trauma (PTSD).
