With apologies - I am not able to take new clients at this time. I welcome former clients to check back in for individual sessions. However, I'd love to see old and new clients in our groups, starting in March!. Use the contact form below to express interest.
Our world can be oppressive and challenging. Many of us have experienced the trauma, even when we also enjoy life. You may experience constant stress, fear, chaos, conflict, numbness, hopelessness, doubts about your self-worth, or self-sabotaging behaviors. Maybe you can identify a specific source or maybe you really don't know where it all comes from. You are invited to seek your own healing and growth - liberation from your trauma, whether individual or generational, interpersonal or racialized, chronic or acute.
Welcome to a warm, safe space, a journey of healing and growth - setting your own goals and your own pace. With a variety of mindfulness-based approaches, we will learn what works for you. You have everything you need within you. my role is to help you gain insight, identify how you wish to change, cultivate hope, and develop the skills to practice rest, joy, peace, and purpose.
One of the most important gifts we can provide is to share insightful resources that can spark and support another's growth. On these pages, you can find excellent books, articles, and websites, each one has been found to be helpful. Usefulness and resonance will be different for different people - so use your own discretion is your selections. We will post updated and curated ideas, practices, links and references. These will not all come from professionals! You are invited to send your favorite practices, links and readings to enrich others in the W&P community.
Note: Not all resources, while curated, can be thoroughly vetted and evaluated, so we cannot vouch for each and every idea or publication we share. Please enjoy reading and practicing, while you exercise discernment and ask a lot of questions!
When you find something useful, when you have an insight, when you develop a new practice, please use the Contact Form below to suggest it! We will review what you submit and share it when we confirm that it may be useful for others.
This group will run from March 20th through May 22nd, with a one-week break midway. The group will have 4-6 participants, consistent membership from start to finish, and a curriculum or format that provides structure and opportunities to both learn and share with others, with no pressure to share beyond what is comfortable. The group is IN PERSON at The Rotunda in Baltimore City, and is offered after work hours. Parking is free.
Freedom from trauma: A Healing Group
Thursdays 6:00-7:30
Symptoms of trauma (whether childhood, racial, generational) show up in many ways (like fear, mistrust, anger, and withdrawal). But by understanding what’s happening in the brain and body, and with good care of Self, we can heal our wounded parts and take charge of our lives!
This groups will be structured around learning and growth - no one will be asked to share stories unless they choose to do so. The focus is on our experiences in not on reliving the past - rather on understanding our present emotions and freeing ourselves for a brighter future.
See "Thoughts on the Liberating Value of Groups" and "Is Groups Therapy for Me?" in Jessica's blog.
