I love this! Transformation takes time. Often, we can be inpatient with ourselves with the pace at which we see change. We live in a world of instant gratification and can sometimes expect that for ourselves. The truth is, real growth and change takes time, patience, consistency and perseverance. But it is worth the wait!

EMDR is an evidence based treatment proven to effectively treat trauma. However, did you know it can also be used for other distressing life issues? This modality is considered rapid resolution to issues that may have kept you stuck for years. This is one of my favorite modalities to use with my clients. Watching them heal from what holds them back is the best job on the planet!

Reflection. The process of therapy essentially is about self reflection- examining one’s experiences to become more aware of thoughts, feelings, behaviors, patterns, etc. What is the benefit of this? I’m sure you can imagine, a lot! It deepens our sense of self, improves connection with others, expands our development and growth as a person. And how about understanding other people’s behaviors towards us? One of the greatest realizations I’ve heard and understood is how someone treats us is a direct reflection of their capacity versus a reflection of our worth. This realization keeps our self esteem in check and keeps us from taking the blame when someone treats us poorly.

There is such beauty in silence and in nature. I look at this photo and am instantly filled with peace and serenity. Often times we can get wrapped up in the noise of life: work obligations, family life, traffic, politics, our own pains, etc. It can become overwhelming to try and keep up with everyone and everything. How often do we seek assurance by talking? How often do you take the time to get assurance through listening? Quiet and alone time is sacred and often times, the answers to what we are seeking lie in the quiet. There are many people who are reluctant to be alone or to not have distractions. Why? Quite simple….fears. There’s a lot of fear that can be associated with what comes up during these times. I know that through the silence and alone time, real, true healing occurs. We don’t have to be so afraid of it- lots of growth and opportunity is on the other side.

Did you know dancing is a creative, experiential technique to help you cope? It offers numerous psychological benefits including managing stress and emotional challenges. It provides a means to express and release emotions, enhances self esteem, fosters connection and belonging, improves cognitive function and mindfulness. Dance movement therapy aims to integrate emotional, social, cognitive and physical aspects. The power of movement for overall well being is astonishing. Give it a try!

Meet, “Olive.”
She is a calming presence in my practice for everyone that walks through our door. Olive is a certified therapy and service dog and is ready to give you love if you so choose. The presence of animals can trigger the body to release hormones such as serotonin and oxytocin which reduces stress and promotes relaxation. This can help reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety and support overall mental health. Pet therapy has many beneficial factors for both mental and physical health. Olive is ready to meet you if you are ready to take the therapeutic journey with us.

Detachment is a tool people can utilize to release emotional turmoil brought on by other people, places or situations. When we get too wrapped up in things we can’t control, we begin feeling overwhelmed, anxious or depressed and unhealthy medicaters to cope. Detaching with love allows for a feeling of freedom from turmoil that is not your own. It is not always easy to practice, especially with loved ones, but it is a tool if you desire some peace in your life when there is chaos around you. Practicing a simply mantra can help with detachment, “I’m giving myself permission to disengage” or “I’m observing without absorbing” ❤️

This is a fresh perspective on how to look at challenges. What is your soul needing to learn through the obstacles presenting to you? Perhaps it’s the same obstacle over and over again. I’ve seen this time and time again. What if we leaned into the resistance of the obstacle versus trying to avoid it? Growth and liberations is always on the other side of pain and challenge. And until we learn the lesson, life has a way of repeating the obstacle time and time again. Try something different- view obstacles as opportunities which will open up a brand new path of beauty for you once mastered.

Let go… and feel those feelings you may have been repressing, holding onto or ignoring. Checking in with yourself multiple times a day and asking, how do I feel? Get curious about your emotions when they arise. Let them come, and go. Like visitors.

Taken from my favorite theorist, Carl Jung who was so incredibly influential in the psychology field. He was a brilliant man. Becoming… transforming… we all have opportunities through our lifetime to choose the journey to enlightenment. Through the obstacles and often times painful journey, we have the privilege to become who we are truly meant to be. This takes work- commitment, willingness, honesty, and a tribe of people who can help support you. Through the pain of becoming, you will see major shifts moving into gratitude, peace and love. What a journey it is! To all my fellow travelers, cheers to you!
