Our ongoing group therapy support aims to create a safe space where survivors of s*xual trauma can experience the healing power of community.

Trauma is a wound or an injury. It doesn't mean that you're broken. It doesn't mean that you're damaged. It doesn't mean that you need to be fixed. It means that something terrifying and unthinkable happened that affected how you view the world and how you move through life. That's not an identity. It's not a description of who you are. It's simply your system's response to a supremely overwhelming experience.

Lean into the transformative power of restorative movement for rest, relaxation, and healing.

We live in a world that makes it difficult to disconnect and power down. We also live in a world that is driven by productivity, and rest might be met with feelings of guilt and shame. We've learned that we are not deserving of rest, or rest should be earned. Restorative flows gently guide us to a p...

If anyone has been feeling supremely heavy over the past few weeks, know that it is okay to pause. If taking a pause feels impossible right now, we get it. Life is precarious, and we are expected to be resilient. We encourage you to embrace the thought that a pause is also an act of resilence, and an act courage. Perhaps the pause is reading this post, or having awareness of the next breath. Regardless of what this pause looks like, know that it is a radical act of self-love.

Deciding to speak about one's s*xual assault is polarizing. One reason is that recipients of the information are often confused regarding who is the victim. This is especially true in matters involving in**st, or in situations where there are unique overlapping relationships. In many cases, offenders, or individuals closely connected to the offender, are also viewed as victims.

Although multiple people and relationships might be affected, they are not victims. The victim is the person who was r***d, molested, trafficked, harrassed, or otherwise s*xually assaulted. Other people are affected in that they have to process and adjust to shocking information, but this doesn't make them victims.

We can better serve individuals by learning how to receive this information without judgment, blame, or criticism. Learning that someone close to us, or someone we like, is a s*x offender is difficult to process. In order to create distance, we polarize, rationalize, and demonize. However, in many instances, much of this frustation is directed at the idividual who was actually violated. This is problematic. Survivors are better served when individuals are empathetic recipients of the information.
