Emotional dumping is a way some people process their problems over and over with a friend or spouse without ever asking if the other person has the capacity or time to listen. It feels bad and often leaves the listener feeling drained and frustrated.

One way to cope with this is to set a boundary with the person.

For example: Hey, I care about you and your struggles, but right now I am not in a place where I can be your support person.

OR…

I am honored you want to share with me and I have listened before and offered my suggestions. I can’t listen without getting frustrated if you don’t try to make changes.

If it continues without change you may need to limit your contact with the person to group settings or not at all.

Nurturing the Gift Within

We all have gifts that we are born with, that when watered and nurtured, become a blessing to us and to others. My gift, is the “gift of gab”, never meeting a stranger because they become a friend first and just generally loving people. I jokingly admit to starting my “social work career” back in my school days supporting friends over the phone, planning school events and serving the elderly sister’s at my high school. Social Work was a natural outpouring of what I already loved doing: supporting and caring for others while listening to their stories and helping them reconnect to the good within them.

Fast forward 28 years, and here I am, still doing that which I feel called to do. After many years of experience at Family Service of Lucas County, The YWCA Battered Women’s Shelter and a variety of private counseling practices, I have ventured out into my own business: Cynthia Wagenhauser, MSW, LISW, Deep Roots Family Therapy. Where I help adolescents, parents, families and individuals overcome struggles and move on to a healthier and happier life.

The metaphor of roots, and the grounding and strength they provide the tree, allowing it to flex in the wind and rain, reminded me of my work with people. When struggling emotionally, many have either never had a good foundation, been infected with disease, or have stretched so far to see the sun, that they have toppled over. My goal as a therapist is to listen and teach people how NOT to be carried off by any old wind or storm that hits their life. In order to fully grow and bloom into the people God created us to be, we need to have the human resources of love, nurturing, guidance and encouragement to get us there.
