Bloom Into Being Therapy

When something painfully overwhelming happens, especially when we’re young, the brain doesn’t store it as “something that happened back then.” It stays alive inside us, like the body and mind never got the message that it’s over.

So years later, a small trigger can feel enormous. The body reacts, the heart races, and that old belief quietly echoes: I’m unlovable. I’m not safe.

EMDR helps the brain finally finish what it couldn’t before. Through memory reconsolidation, a fancy way of saying your brain can finally realize the past is over, those memories begin to soften. The nervous system feels safety in real time.

As this happens, the rational part of the brain begins to connect with the emotional part that once held the pain. This is called adaptive information processing, the brain’s natural ability to integrate new, healing information with old experiences so the memory feels resolved instead of raw.

What this makes possible for you after doing healing work with EMDR is a calmer inner world. You respond rather than react. You feel safer in your own body and clearer in your relationships. The past stops running the present, and peace finally feels possible.

Today, my YouTube channel reached 3 million views. That number isn’t just a metric—it represents real people whose lives have been touched in ways I may never fully know.

Recently, I received a comment from someone in Ukraine:
"I'm from Ukraine and there are drone attacks near my house almost every day, so thank you very much – it not only helps to drown out the noise, but also allows you to keep your balance, to be in reality but without excessive stress."

As a therapist, my one-to-one work is sacred—but finite. I can only hold space for a handful of clients each day.
The internet, however, makes healing scalable.

A single video or meditation can ripple across continents, reaching someone in the middle of a war zone, someone recovering from trauma, or someone just trying to get through their day.

3 million views isn’t just a milestone—it’s a glimpse of what’s possible when we use technology for care, connection, and global healing.

This is more than content; it’s community. It’s a reminder that even in the most difficult circumstances, we are not alone. 💙

Are you walking through hospice with a loved one and wondering how to support them—and yourself—through it?

I sat down with Hospice Nurse Julie to talk about what hospice really is, how families can navigate this tender time, and how her new online course helps bring comfort, clarity, and peace in the midst stressful times.

And if you want deeper guidance, check out Julie’s course: https://my.pesi.partners/5C5QMZJ/2N721M1/

The brine inhalation wall in Bad Reichenhall releases a fine, salty mist into the air — a tradition that’s supported respiratory healing for over 150 years.

It’s not just the salt that heals.
It’s the stillness.
The benches.
The open air.
The freedom to breathe without rushing.

We need more spaces like this — where healing is quiet, gentle, and free!

A beautiful reminder of why I create EMDR Music on YouTube as a FREE mental health resource 💛 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDH3QiSSNpBfmDsw2AJi99g

This sweet comment from a mom about her 5-year-old listening to the bilateral sound therapy made my heart overflow:

“I love it mommy, it makes me feel calm.” 🥹

Sometimes the simplest words carry the deepest truth.
Calm is powerful. Regulating the nervous system matters—especially for little ones.

Thank you to every parent, therapist, and listener who shares these moments. 🙏

✨ I’m honored to be published in Elephant Journal ✨

In my work with women healing from narcissistic abuse, one pattern I see again and again is betrayal blindness—when the body protects us by not fully letting in the truth.

It’s not denial. It’s survival.

This article explores how betrayal blindness can show up in the wake of infidelity and emotional manipulation, and why compassion—not self-blame—is the first step to healing.

Betrayal blindness is what happens when the truth threatens to take away the love we need—so the body gently

What is EMDR Music? In therapy, I use a method called EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), which helps the brain heal from overwhelming or distressing experiences. One of the key elements? Bilateral eye movement or gentle left-right sounds, called bilateral tones, that support emotional regulation, present moment awareness, and nervous system calming.

Over time, clients began asking:
“Can I use those tones at home?”
“They help me fall asleep.”
“I want something like this to calm down or focus.”

So I created EMDR Music—soothing soundtracks paired with bilateral tones to help you relax, release stress, and feel grounded.

What started as a support for my clients has now reached over 100,000 people on YouTube.

Whether you're winding down for bed, easing anxiety, or focusing on inner healing work—EMDR Music can be a powerful support.

In my work with women, I hear over and over: "Why do I keep attracting the wrong men?"

Dysfunction still functions—and years can slip by chasing dead-end relationships. It feels like Groundhog Day—every relationship starts with hope, but before long, you’re tangled in the same heartbreak. Different face, same dynamic. You wonder: Why does this always end in pain?

💔 The Pattern
You promise yourself, Never again. But somehow, the charm, the intensity, the familiar pull draws you in. You recognize the red flags after you’re already invested. The cycle repeats.

🧠 The Wound
This isn’t just bad luck. Attachment wounds—often formed in childhood or past relationships—create unconscious patterns. You might be seeking the love you never fully received, proving your worth to someone who can’t see it, or feeling stuck in fear of being alone.

These wounds often leave behind deep-seated beliefs:

I am unworthy of love.
I’m only good if someone chooses me.
Love is something I have to earn.
If I set boundaries, I’ll be abandoned.
I have to fix people to be valuable.

✨ The Healing
EMDR therapy helps you heal these wounds at the root. By reprocessing past experiences, your nervous system learns that love doesn’t have to hurt. You develop a new internal compass—one that leads you toward healthy, safe, and reciprocal relationships.

If you’re ready to break the cycle, heal your attachment wounds, and open the door to real love, let’s connect.

You deserve more than a pattern—you deserve peace.

Trauma isn’t just a story in your mind—it’s an imprint held deep within your body and nervous system. And here’s the truth: when the body heals, the brain follows. 🧠

You’ve probably heard that talk therapy helps you process your thoughts and feelings. And it does—by engaging the higher parts of your brain, the ones that think, analyze, and make sense of life.

But what happens when the pain you carry doesn’t have words? 💔

Trauma settles deeper, in the places beyond language—in your midbrain and brainstem, where survival instincts, shock, and raw emotions live. It’s why you can feel completely safe but still get hit with sudden waves of panic. 🌊 It’s why certain sounds, smells, or places can make your heart race, even if your mind knows you’re okay.

This is where Somatic EMDR Therapy comes in.

It works with your body’s non-verbal language—the tension in your chest, the knot in your stomach, the tremor in your hands. Because your body remembers what your mind can’t explain.

Through Somatic EMDR, we don’t just talk about the trauma—we help your body release it. Bit by bit, your nervous system begins to reset. The fight-flight-freeze responses soften. Your body finds safety, and your brain finally rests. 🕊️

Healing isn’t just from the neck up. It’s from the inside out. Ready to experience it? Let’s connect. 💌

With Colorado Virtual Therapy, you can access the benefits of EMDR from the comfort of your own home. Our virtual therapy sessions are confidential, secure, and easy to use, allowing you to receive the support and guidance you need, no matter where you are.

🎭 Unmasking the Narcissistic Cycle: Why It’s So Hard to Let Go

Narcissistic relationships are designed to confuse, control, and trap you in an emotional whirlwind. Here’s how the cycle keeps you hooked:

💔 1. Love Bombing:
They sweep you off your feet—fast moving intense affection, grand gestures, and promises of forever. It feels magical—like you’ve met your soulmate.

💔 2. Manipulation & Devaluation:
The warmth turns ice-cold. Blame-shifting, gaslighting, and childish outbursts replace affection. Suddenly, you’re walking on eggshells with an emotional toddler—questioning your sanity.

💔 3. The Poppy Field Effect (Euphoric Recall):
Like Dorothy falling asleep in the poppy field in The Wizard of Oz, your mind becomes foggy—fixating on the highs and blurring out the lows:
💭 Sweet apologies mask manipulation.
💭 Charm overshadows cruelty.
💭 Chaos fades behind the false hope that “better days” are coming.

💔 4. Trauma Bonding – The Emotional Slot Machine:
The rollercoaster of affection and abuse hijacks your nervous system. The push-pull dynamic keeps you chasing the next “good” moment—clinging to false hope that things will change.

The Hard Truth:
🚫 The “good times” are part of the trap.
🚫 Apologies without change are manipulation.
🚫 Chaos isn’t passion, love, chemistry, or soul destiny—it’s control.

You are not alone. Healing is possible.
With the right support, you can:
✅ Untangle the confusion of trauma bonds
✅ Calm your nervous system and reclaim clarity
✅ Find peace—and yourself—beyond the cycle
