New addition to the personal library. 📚

I’ve been quiet on here lately…there’s been a lot happening behind the scenes. A season of transition, preparation, and intentional shifts in how I serve.

This book, Testimony Therapy, connects to the community engagement work I’m facilitating, particularly around the power of sharing and witnessing each others stories.

There is something powerful about having the opportunity to share our experiences, give language to what we’ve lived through, and have those experiences witnessed, honored, and validated.

I’m equally interested in what happens on the other side of that interaction, because how we listen matters.

When someone entrusts us with their story, we have an opportunity to do more than simply hear what happened. We can hold space in a way that helps them recognize their own strengths, access the wisdom and resources they’ve developed along the way, and make meaning of their experiences.

Listeners benefit from this witnessing as well.

When we learn how to become more compassionate, validating, and empowering witnesses to the human experience. We create opportunities for deeper connection, healing, and collective resilience.

There is so much we can learn from one another when we create intentional spaces for our stories to be shared and honored.

Looking forward to sharing more about what I’ve been working on.

When you share something meaningful about your life, what helps you feel truly heard and understood?

Self awareness isn’t just about insight. It’s about accurate assessment.

If we don’t understand the season we are in, we reach for strategies that may not support us.

Trying harder may not be the answer.
More discipline may not be the answer.

Sometimes the most honest and POWERFUL next step is rest & recovery.

If you need a tool to help you identify the season you are in feel free to use my Resilience Profile Quiz (link in bio)

I’ve had several conversations recently where people shared how grateful they are in hindsight about how difficult moments played out.

Not every challenge means something is wrong.

Sometimes Life is creating space for something more aligned that you can’t see in the moment.

If you are in a season of growth, transition, or deeper self-awareness, my Resilience Profile Quiz can help you understand where you are and how to move forward with more clarity and intention.

🎉Completed AAMFT Virtual Supervision Fundamentals Course🎉

I had a great cohort & amazing instructor which made the 30 hours on a screen not feel so bad.

I have much more clarity & confidence in what the recent research & professional literature says about clinical supervision.

I’m excited about supervising the next generation of therapists.

Next steps are to get those supervision experience hours in & finish my philosophy of supervision paper.

But first….we celebrate 🎉

Invested in beginning my AAMFT Clinical Supervisor Journey this week! 🥳🎉 The text came in right on time.

I technically began the journey over 10 years ago during my doctoral program. However due to multiple military relocations & birthing 3 children, that goal was postponed.

I gave myself permission to press pause and be present in my family life.

Now I’m pressing play on this goal and excited to be supervising & supporting the next generation of therapists.

This is a personal reflection from my work but I know many of you have experienced this too.

That moment you realize you don’t need to raise your voice to radiate your power.

That moment when your grounding,
your gentleness,
your quiet presence
shifts the entire atmosphere.

There is power in your posture.
There is strength in your softness.
There is sovereignty in your stillness.

🍃Share or comment if you can relate.🍃
