👉 Sibling abuse is rarely talked about — and even more rarely taken seriously.
But its impact on your nervous system, your sense of safety, and your relational blueprint can be lifelong.

If you grew up in a home where your sibling was your bully, your pain is real.
Even if no one else noticed.

My online trauma healing classes are here to support this kind of truth.
Relational, body-based, and grounded in complex trauma care.

✨ Witnessing the harm of others can be traumatising.
Even if it didn’t happen to you directly.
Even if it’s unfolding through a screen.

Secondary trauma through indirect exposure is real — especially when it’s collective, prolonged, and silenced.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, helpless, or deeply distressed… there’s nothing wrong with you. Your nervous system is responding appropriately.

If you want a space to come to ground, process, and regulate… my online classes may help. Community and taking care of yourself it’s important during these times.

Healing can’t begin in environments that still feel unsafe.

If your nervous system is still actively protecting you — still bracing, scanning, shutting down or fighting to survive — then the goal isn’t healing.
It’s preservation.
And thats appropriate.

Sometimes, we stay because we have to. Because we’re not ready or resourced enough to leave.
But knowing that your body isn’t the problem — the environment is — can offer clarity and compassion.

You don’t need to push yourself to heal in a place that’s still hurting you.
When the threat is gone, your system will know. And that’s when healing becomes possible.

Two siblings.
Same house. Same rules. Same parents.
Very different trauma.

It’s not uncommon for one sibling to carry deep emotional wounds, while the other appears unaffected. This isn’t because one was more dramatic or less resilient — it’s because trauma is an internal experience, not an external checklist.

The nervous system responds to what it feels — not what others say is true.
Factors like nervous system sensitivity, neurodivergence, attachment dynamics, and identity (race, gender, birth order, etc.) all shape how each child internalises the same environment.

If you’ve ever been told, “But your childhood wasn’t that bad” —
This post is for you.

Because your truth deserves to be seen.
Even if others remember it differently.

👉 What if there are no words?
Preverbal trauma happens before we had language — before memory, before logic, before the brain could process what was going on.

That distress doesn’t disappear.
It shows up in the body — through emotional flashbacks, relationship fear, or a felt sense of threat that doesn’t seem to “make sense.”

But the nervous system is responding to what it once lived.
Long before language or cognitive understanding were available.

This is why healing preverbal trauma doesn’t require memory recall.
It asks us to turn toward the body’s current signals:
The reflexes. The emotional patterns. The postures. The longing to be held.

These are not overreactions.
They’re intelligent responses rooted in a time when you had few resources and no words.

Healing begins with presence.
With meeting those early imprints gently —
and re-providing what was once missing.

🌿 If this speaks to you, my online classes offer body-based, relational trauma healing.

If you’ve ever felt unsafe, pushed, or overwhelmed in a healing space — that wasn’t your fault.
Your body wasn’t resisting healing. It was protecting you.

True trauma-informed work doesn’t demand surrender.
It builds trust.
It goes slow.
It listens to the nervous system — not overrides it.

🌀 If you’re looking for a space where your pace is honoured, and your system is respected —
my online classes might be the right place to begin.

You can join anytime via the link in bio. 💛
