As a parent of a grieving child or one who has experienced acute trauma, you likely feel heartbroken and helpless, unsure of how to support them through such a difficult time. You’ve probably noticed changes in their behavior—perhaps they’ve become withdrawn, unusually quiet, or more irritable with frequent outbursts. Emotionally, your child may seem lost in sadness or confusion, and they might struggle to express what they’re feeling. Signs of distress like trouble sleeping or physical symptoms such as headaches may also arise.

Have you ever experienced an event that completely changed your view of the world? Do you feel afraid, alone and unsure of where to turn? Are you experiencing intrusive thoughts, when you least expect it or even nightmares? Trauma has lasting physical and emotional effects that can leave you tired, jumpy, anxious, feeling ashamed, exposed, insecure and wondering who you can trust. Do you find yourself wondering why you haven't found the love you want in your relationships? Do you believe no matter what you say or do for your significant other, it's never the "right thing" or "good enough"?

Do you remember who you were before the world told you who you were supposed to be? Do you know just how much you deserve- in life, in love, in success (however that may look to you), or how much there is in life, still waiting for you to claim?

I just don’t know where to start..” Or maybe “Hmm I am confused but basically she’s saying I can have this great, big, full, beautiful life? Sounds pretty cool…” OR maybe you’re reading my profile thinking “wowza, she is an odd bird! But I think I kind of like it?" Wherever you are, there we begin
