I have been up to stuff. Incredibly cool stuff. Transformative stuff. And I am in process of updating my website with details of such things.
Here’s to providing research-based trauma-focused methods to assist clients in returning to their Core Self. They have always, always had the Core Self yet along life’s road had no choice but to survive the messiness of pain. The Core Self takes a back seat as the body-brain does all it can to get through and protect. What a beautiful, sacred honor it is to witness clients releasing trauma and reuniting with Core Self!

Healing takes time, patience, fortitude, bravery. Wish there was a magic pill to relieve your suffering, but there just isn’t. However, if you are willing to give healing a chance, therapy can be salve for the mind-body-soul. In the case of trauma-specialty therapy, your results may include restoration of your nervous system back to its original calm and protective states.

When we are surviving unsafe people and unsafe situations, we seek safety through doing the needful to get along, to get through. It makes sense! As we find the necessary resources to move away from the unsafe, we may find that our long-standing survival patterns stick around. The nervous system still watches for threats until or unless we feel safe and we enter the healing process. As we heal, we pivot out of surviving and into thriving. We let go of minding the narrative that others have of us. Ultimately we find peace and a focus on what matters most.
