Trauma and Overwhelming Experiences
When life comes at us with too much, too fast, too soon
Sometimes things happen in life we never expected would happen to us, and it feels like it shatters our world.
Sometimes we deal with a buildup of events over years until one day it’s just too much, and we can’t take it anymore.
When it feels like things are falling apart, we need a place where we feel safe to fall apart ourselves. Its often unsustainable to pretend we’re ok and try to power through what we’re facing. We need to stop and take time to let ourselves feel what we feel, so that we can move through it and let it go instead of carrying it with us while we’re in crisis.
We also need support in putting things back together. There are times in life where we can’t put the pieces back the same way they were before. But we can put them back together to make something new, and something that is still good.
