There’s no doubt that daily life situations, transitions and challenging relationships can be triggering. These triggering events and relationships can cause emotional flooding. Emotional flooding is the body’s response to being overly aroused by physical and emotional sensations which could lead to “shutdown” mode. This can look like an inability to concentrate, being mentally withdrawing, having a fight-flight-freeze reaction, intense anger, toxic stress, paralyzing anxiety, grief or depression which are impacting your quality of life and ability to maintain optimal functioning.
I provide psycho-education to build understanding of what you are physically and mentally experiencing, allow a safe and culturally sensitive space to process your emotions, identify ways to handle the various situations which are triggering while helping you to develop coping skills and healthy boundaries. My ideal clients are Black or Latino ages 14 - 60.
I believe, like Nelson Mandela stated, “we are all bound together in ways that are invisible to the eye” and “we achieve ourselves by sharing ourselves with others and caring for those around us” so I have a personal level of responsibility to help strengthen my community. Let's work together.
