You’re not alone.

If The Tell has been sitting heavy in your body, if it’s unearthed something tender or cracked open a knowing you can’t quite name—you’re not alone. Some books don’t just tell a story; they stir something deep. This is one of them.

I believe in spaces where we don’t have to hold it all alone. Spaces where we can be with what’s rising, where we can breathe into the discomfort, rage, grief, and relief that come when truth is spoken.

That’s why I’m starting a Book Circle—not just to read, but to process, connect, and witness one another in what’s bubbling up. A place to sit with the hard without shrinking from it. A place where community meets healing.

If this speaks to you, if you’re feeling the pull to be in conversation with others who are also sitting with The Tell, come join us. Let’s do this together.

Drop a comment or DM me if you want in. You don’t have to hold it all alone.

“The Tell “ Book Healing Circle will be held on Sundays from 10 - 2 pm in the sacred Main room at The Center for Mind, Body & Play in Gaslight Clifton, beginning the last week of April.

I am thrilled to be a part of the extraordinary panel and discussion on the power of our bodies in health and healing.

The Best Drug I’ve Ever Taken Wasn’t Even a Drug. It Was EMDR Therapy. In an excerpt from his book, comedian Adam Cayton-Holland explains the therapy that helped him grieve the death of his sister.

The breath-memory connection is becoming much more understood and is such an important tool in trauma recovery.

Inhale, Exhale, Remember: Uncovering the Breath-Memory Connection - Neuroscience News Studies reveal that the rhythm of our breathing can influence neural activity, impacting cognitive functions such as emotional processing and memory recall.

As Founder of Rootworks, I am grateful and humbled for the gift to share what I know while increasing access to deeply meaningful, trauma-centered therapy access.

Teaching, mentoring and building into the next generation of healers will never, ever grow old to me.

Teaching final semester graduate students this semester how to offer Family & Couples therapy is among the most important community work I’m doing right now.

Here they are world…after graduation next week… they are here to serve you, your family and your most treasured relationships.

I am pleased to announce that EMDR Consulting and The Center for Mind, Body & Play will be hosting another EMDR Basic Training in partnership with the University of Cincinnati’s Counseling program and Chi Sigma Iota Honor Society.

When one of our younger partners forget their security friend and struggle without it, we stage play dates and photo shoots to keep her giggling at his adventure while he’s away.
