Trauma doesn't always look like panic attacks and avoidance. Trauma can present in so many ways, particularly when the trauma was caused during childhood.
People who experienced trauma early in life may be highly competent, highly intellectual, and high-achieving academically or professionally, and may manifest symptoms of trauma in subtle ways.
Which of these symptoms of trauma surprised you the most?

Today, let's celebrate all the dads who are breaking intergenerational cycles of absence, toxic masculinity, rigid gender roles, and violence. Let's celebrate the fathers who are present, participating, and emotionally engaged with their children and families. Let's celebrate the dads who have done their own healing in order to make a better life for those who rely on them.
It is never too late to heal, and the impact of one person's wellness will span generations.
Happy father's day ❤️

Have you heard about EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing)?
🧿
This therapy uses bilateral stimulation (fancy phrase for moving your eyes back and forth) to help process and recover from traumatic experiences.
🧿
It can be done in person or virtually, and is used with talk therapy to help heal from even the oldest, most hard-to-reach wounds.
🧿
I love EMDR for helping first responders and medical personnel deal with complex work-related trauma, but it can be used for just about any trauma...big or small.
🧿
If you're ready to start your healing journey, reach out today for a free 15-minute consultation to see if EMDR is right for you

For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven:
a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace.
