The Seen Club is a private letter for complex trauma survivors to feel validated, safe and creatively engaged.

TRANSCRIPT

I’m not a therapist. I’m not a coach.

I’m a C-PTSD survivor.

From this side of complex ptsd survival, I know this to be true:

Trauma needs to be seen.

This is what I offer here. A mirror, a pause, a safe place where your healing isn’t rushed.

I’ve officially trained in trauma-sensitive mindfulness and meditation, i’m a grief educator and I’m in EMDR trauma therapy (there is a link on the bottom of this letter to what EMDR is) but most importantly I’ve experienced the dark ache, the hollow place inside. I’ve woken up in the middle of the night in a panic, I’ve placed my hands on my chest trying to prevent my heart from exploding, i have taken way too many deep inhales and I’m actively rebuilding my nervous system, one intelligent patha and thread at a time.

I’ve practiced the kind of presence and depth that only immense grief, the long, dark night can teach you.

If you’re here, you don’t need to justify your pain.

I already believe you.

Some things that are true about me:

• 
  
• I believe grief is holy, rage is sacred, and silence is a language.
  
• I use writing, voice notes, and creative fragments to stay close to myself - you will experience these for yourself as well through this club.
  
• I’m learning how to let people in, and trust again, without disappearing in the process.
  
• I didn’t grow up with emotional safety. So I’m creating it here.

I would love to know more about you - so if you want, please send me 3 things that are true about you.
