The Past28 Oct 202200:15:57

The Past. You can't get out of it. And in the therapy world, it's kind of a big deal. But so many people are just "not up for it" when it comes to talking about the past. It tends to be a major reason people don't really want to do therapy in the first place. But friend! You can't escape the past. It's always with you, and it is the story of you. Does it have to define you? Does it have to get in your way? Hell No! But let me teach you how to look into the past when needed, for an action oriented way to heal and grow yourself.

Everyone Says That12 Oct 202200:16:31

As a therapist, I hear a lot of the same phrases from the people I talk to each day. People always think they are the ONLY ones who think or feel a certain way. And generally, when they find out that almost everyone says the exact same things, they feel a little lighter. A little more "normal." Hopefully this episode will normalize things for you too.

Children of Alcohol11 Aug 202100:18:41

Understanding yourself and your experience is the pathway to personal growth.

Many people do not have a good understanding of the impact of alcoholism, yet, it was an incredibly difficult element of their lives growing up. When we are raised in a home where the adults abuse alcohol, it impacts our mental health later in life. Let's talk about the common ways in which being a child of drinkers impacts us as adults. And then, of course, I will give you some suggestions about how to move forward and what things to be aware of as you listen.

Why We Numb21 Jul 202100:16:13

"Numbing" is how we escape life's hard moments and get a break. It's so nice sometimes to just zone out for awhile, right?! But is it a helpful thing to do? When we are anxious and we cope by eating, when we need to have a hard conversation and we play video games instead, or when our kids are being needy and we tune them out in favor of the TV...these are all examples of numbing. While it's very understandable behavior, numbing actually makes things worse. It causes us to get disconnected from the people in our lives and even ourselves too. Let's have a conversation about why we numb and how to start living from a place of presence and intention rather than zoning out.

Great News! Doing Nothing is a key ingredient to optimal mental health! Downtime allows us to access our creativity, problem solving skills, and to get clarity on life's tricky situations. It's a great practice to begin to teach yourself. Creating space in your life for non-productive time can really help your stress level, overwhelm and general life attitude. But it needs to be done with intention. Dig in with me today as I teach you about how to add a little downtime to the mix of your hectic life. Without all of the guilt.

The Regroup23 Jun 202100:21:46

Sometimes in life, things do NOT go as planned, am I right?! Whether it's that new job you thought would be a perfect fit, or your little business you're trying to get off the ground. Maybe it's a relationship in which you are just not sure you want to keep trying at. This episode will give you a concrete strategy to do a "Regroup." I will teach you a method to step away, assess what's actually happening and come back in differently. That's the only way to achieve a different result. You have a choice, my friend to keep going or move on along. A regroup will help you make that choice in an insightful way.

Get Trauma Informed26 May 202100:18:52

Many people have heard the phrase "Trauma Informed" in one context or another. It's commonly used in the medical and mental health fields as a guide for clinicians- but I think we should start throwing it about! Today's episode will teach you about why being trauma informed just makes good sense no matter what field (or household) you are in. It's all about making room in our relationships to understand each other better. Being trauma informed helps us gain closer relationships with better boundaries, have way less drama and stop taking everything so personally. It's helpful- trust me on this one.

Everyday Abuse12 May 202100:20:36

Abuse. It feels like a dirty word, and yet it's one of the most common dynamics within relationships. Many people are confused about what exactly "qualifies" as abuse. They are wondering if they qualify. Let's have a frank discussion about the dynamics of abusive relationships....for reals. No sugar coating. This episode might be triggering, but it's important education for anyone in relationships. 

Abuse is a direct result of trauma. And thus, we can heal. But abusive dynamics cause poor mental health! So, it's time to get educated! Let's all work together to be our best selves:) 

Because, my friend, this is YOUR life and the choice is all yours. Change is possible.

Feel Your Feelings21 Apr 202100:21:25

Many of us were not taught to deal with our emotions. Today's episode will help you quickly understand the importance of feeling your feelings. Every single one of them. Not just the positive stuff. I will walk you through a lesson on just how to go about the process of processing emotion...it's not too complicated- but super important!

A healthy emotional experience.
