You don't have to sacrifice the value of either skillset.
Both are crucial mountains an outstanding provider must climb.
There are no shortcuts, no magical weekend certifications.
This journey has taken over 20 years of my life and I wouldn't give up a single challenge or educational opportunity along the way.
I appreciate every painful step I had to take to overcome my own traumatic experiences and there were many.
I was the victim of childhood sexual abuse, rape, domestic violence,
I survived cancer, a traumatic back, shoulder, and brain injury from a terrifying auto accident,
my home burned to the ground (they started calling me phoenix that day)
I worked hard to explore, try, fail, and try again
until I found my footing and gradually, slowly, over time, one step at a time
not only survived but forged a pathway to truly living.
Slowly and painfully I nurtured my wings to grow and learned how to use them.
I tried to fly again and again crashing to the ground only to find myself shattered
and still I fought on
what choice do we have...
we learn to fly or
we wither on the ground unable to find the sunlight
We are swallowed up by the darkness
and so I chose one day to live, instead of give in
all in, failure no longer an option
something had to change, it had to be me, and it had to be now
Scratching, screaming, and bleeding,
I CHOSE, and everyday still I choose
to rise out of the ashes of my experiences and set my life on fire
And now I want to help you break free too!
Healing is a journey and no one should have to walk alone.

Post Traumatic Stress and Trauma Spectrum Injuries leave many living in a reactive, overstimulated, nervous system arousal state.

Post Traumatic Stress and Trauma Spectrum Injuries leave many living in a reactive, overstimulated, nervous system arousal state.
The symptoms can range wildly from shutting down to an utter lack of control of thoughts, feelings, emotions, and actions on the more severe ends of the scale.
Trauma can affect anyone but there are special populations who are especially vulnerable due to the environments in which they were raised, live or work. Survivors of child abuse and neglect, human trafficking, domestic violence, rape, violent crime, severe illness or injury, are but a few possibilities. Also Military, Veterans, Firefighters and other Front Line helping professionals experience high levels of risk for PTSD, Addiction, Divorce, Domestic Violence, and Suicide. Much of this can be directly linked to trauma response and reactivity.
Many of us don't consider our traumas to be significant enough to be the cause of our symptoms, however its not always about the intensity or duration of the trauma experienced but rather a complex multi-faceted set of factors which determines how our bodies and brains react. It might be easier to view your symptoms through a lens of causation based on factors of the past that are still holding on to high levels of energy. It's this residual energy or emotion that gets in the way of our present moment happiness. Somehow our nervous system is still or frequently sure there is a major threat right there that will surely kill us, or cause us great pain.
It sometimes seems no one wants us to know......

Welcome to the RISEUP Family
That is truly what we have here. Unconditional, supportive, understanding.
You would think reading this we're all about trauma. The reality is we're all about happiness.
RISEUP programs are focused on not only healing the invisible wounds of our past, but also liberating us into experiencing life from a whole new perspective.
We are here to experience the present moment, to savor the sensations of living even when it's not all rainbows and unicorns.
We are here to connect, to belong, to trust and to love ourselves and others without stress anxiety and overwhelm.
We are here to feel safe in our own skin, and to love the way this body moves us through the world.
We are here to explore, create, and have adventures that fill us with new reasons for waking up in the morning.
we are here to feel peace and joy more often that anger and sadness.
We are here to make the world a better place even if only with a smile now and then because one of the most underestimated and powerful things in this world is really that simple.
We know it's not easy .... but many of the steps are pretty simple.
Healing is being honest with ourselves and with others about what we want, need, and desire
Healing is rejecting people pleasing, setting boundaries, getting to know who we really are underneath all the faulty programing, assumptions and expectations.
Healing is changing what we believe is possible, and pushing to achieve more and better than we ever dreamed
Healing is choosing each and every day who we want to be and what we want to put out into the world
Healing is knowing....I mean really knowing you are worthy and deserving of love, abundance, success, and safety
Healing is Happiness
