Secondary Trauma Resiliency
This work that we do as helping professionals can make us weary. Sometimes it can be helpful to chat about our work and get support from the heaviness and the frustration and sometimes anger of working within systems that create more oppression. We might not have the space to share these experiences with others and/or we may be at risk to lose our jobs.
With humor, compassion, and examining the work that we do in the context of the real world and influence of white supremacy, capitalism, and patriarchy, let’s create a space of rest for you.
Please note: the term "helping professionals" is inclusive of a lot of different roles, including (and not limited to) social workers, caseworkers, therapists, folks who work in a non-profit setting, teachers and school staff, health care professionals, first responders, etc.

One on One Collaboration Sessions
Collaboration Sessions are named so because your lived experience is important and valued here. You know yourself and your life the best. These sessions are an opportunity to gain support, validate your experience, and if needed, create an action plan for yourself-which could include prioritizing your joy and your mental health, exploring different types of work in your chosen field, or creating an exit strategy from your current position.

Individual Therapy to Heal from Secondary Trauma
Sometimes, our wounds from the work run a little deeper, and therapy might be more beneficial than a consultation session. How would you know? Maybe you experience triggers at work, have nightmares, are experiencing difficulty moving through past experiences. I also offer therapy for helping professionals. If that is the level of support you need, please check out this page for more information about insurance and pricing.
