How can you practice the art of healthy detachment in all of your relationships so that you can free yourself from the wounds of your past, coloring the lens through which you experience people today? Let’s start with marinating in the high of new love even before we meet someone new because we allow our fantasies to overwrite the reality of who they are when they show up. You’ll over romanticize things, write a script for how the relationship is is supposed to unfold. They don’t follow the script and since you don’t do improv, you lose interest 🤭🙃 Romanticizing new people creates expectations they'll play a role they didn’t sign up for. You become emotionally wedded to them being the version you’ve created in your mind so much so that you’ll internalize them not following the script. Detaching while dating is important you’re not internalizing their behaviors. It also lessens the whiplash of disappointment you experience because you think they’re going to be the one. Fall back. Sink back into your body and get out of your head. Know that what you want is valid, then embody and firmly on it. You're not "too much" for wanting to be treated with a basic level of decency and respect in your relationships. Detachment keeps you grounded and prevents you from lowering your standards when they don’t meet yours. We’re not doing that anymore. 📣 If you struggle with getting attached too early when dating then I'd love to support you via my Inner Circle membership for women healing after toxic relationships. My favorite masterclasses to help you detach and date with ease for are: ❤️ Sexual Chemistry, Trauma Bonds, And Why Healthy Relationships Feel Boring ❤️ Breaking Unhealthy Attachments 🔥Perfect for women whether single, in a relationship/partnered, married, divorced, even if you have a "complicated" relationship. 🔥Self-paced, on demand content, live workshops with myself and other members in a safe space 🔥Immediate access to 50+ masterclasses on inner child work, love addiction, obsessive thoughts, premature attachment and more!

Resonance. We are energy itself. And our system vibration will attract or repel as needed. This does not stem from ego (which is why law of attraction used by the ego does not always work out for the best). Our Higher Self (superconsciousness) will bring in what we have asked for. We ask for healing - and we are shown what needs healing. After blowing out enough birthday candles making the same wish for years, we are beginning to understand this now. Allow yourself/selves Grace as you(s) walk this path. #energy #frequency #vibrationalenergy #healing #cptsdrecovery #didrecovery

When you’ve gone through years of life with someone at your side, it doesn’t matter how they’ve treated you, your body and mind will usually give you signals that you “miss” them. You may feel ashamed, embarrassed, and confused by this feeling - that’s normal too. #isthisabuse #understandingabuse #traumarecovery #betrayaltraumarecovery #betrayaltrauma #traumarecovery #cptsd #cptsdrecovery #healingafterabuse #emotionalabuse #verbalabuse #infidelityrecovery #affairrecovery Disclaimer: As a certified coach, I only offer advice.

CPTSD is BIG ENERGY. If you are a #cyclebreaker you are stewarding a LOT OF ENERGY inside of & around, you. Do you carry: HURT – all the things that were done & NOT done resulting in UNMET NEEDS + HARM. PROTECTIVE PARTS – all the strategies, impulses, feelings, promises you’ve turned towards to PROTECT & prevent more hurt from happening or to provide relief for the hurt. LINEAGE BURDENS – a frequency of FEAR that is bigger than, you & yet you may not have a “story” or an experience in your lifetime that makes the big energy make sense. This can show up when you “know” what you “should” do but meet big time internal resistance when you try. COLLECTIVE BURDENS – the intersectional abuse of power that creates separation, comparison, judgement, & dominance vs. balance, harmony, peace, & prosperity. These energies make #cptsdrecovery like a jigsaw puzzle. It takes time & space to see it. Each person has a unique combination of the energies they are running which means their recovery journey will also be COMPLEX & UNIQUE. Ready to take your first step forward? Or begin again? I know how this feels! Want a provider that can flex with your unique needs? I’m here waiting to celebrate your conviction! www.resetwithrenee.com #resetwithrenee #generationalhealing #cptsdrecovery

“We love to over complicate things - especially healing. And it shouldn’t be that complicated. It’s the simple cures that are usually the most powerful - and they have age old wisdom that is backed by empiricism. If you aren’t well or have trauma, you must deal with that. Go to therapy. Take your meds. Learn the coping skill you need. And the rest of it is quite straightforward, though not always easy to implement. Sleep. Move. Eat. Guard your environment. Have some boundaries. Build self-awareness. And spend time with people who are nice to you.” - Seerut K. Chawla • “Move. Spend time with people who are nice to you.” Throwback: boulderen op Sicilië. #rockclimbing #klimmenhelpt #sterkerworden #climbing #bouldering #balancedliving #beingintentional #takecontrolofyourlife #healthyself #intentionsetting #raiseyourvibe #healingjourney #cptsdrecovery #healingprocess #intuitivehealing #healyourself #healyourlife #selfhealing #freeyoursoul #freeyourmind #healingfromtrauma #traumarecovery #posttraumatichealing #mentalhealthjourney #becomingstronger #becomingsofter #healingplace

It’s not a selfie……. I’m so excited just booked my first weekend away from the kids in about 15 yrs, a well overdue and much needed break. I can’t believe all the exciting plans I’ve got booked in for this year already and non of it would be possible without the amazing support I’ve had and got in my life right now which is helping to make all this possible and I am so incredibly grateful . Never in a million years did I think I could do anything I’m doing right now let alone what I’ve got planned for this year. Having goals and planning things to look forward to is really helping me feel excited for life right now. #smashingmygoals #growth #theonlyconstantischange #cptsdrecovery #cptsd #latediagnosedautistic #autistic #weekendbreaks #life #autisticwomen #lifeworthliving #livingmybestlife #excitingtimes #support #mytribe

Healing from complex trauma is ugly. It is not all bubble baths, candles, yoga, hugging or even talking. It is crying while sitting in the shower or in bed for hours and hours. Alone. It is questioning yourself and life over and over again, trying to make sense of it all. It is doubting and hurting yourself emotionally or physically, because there's just no other way to bear and express the pain. It is feeling so desperate, that you think you can't keep on going any longer. It is - in the end - facing the pain that broke you as a child and in the midst of the storm, not escaping it, but letting it be...letting it hurt you, feeling it...and then, learning to deal with it. In the end, healing is about learning to carry yourself emotionally. It is saving your inner child, which had been left alone in the terrors of when it all happened for far too long. I used to think that I'd go to therapy and my therapist would give me all the things I had been longing for for so long...love, care, safety....I used to think someone would come and make me feel whole again. Now I realised, that that someone who saves me, has to be me. In the process of healing, I am learning to carry myself with all my pain. I am learning to make myself feel loved, cared for and safe. I am learning to make myself feel whole again. And also accepting and caring for the parts that have been broken. I am saving myself. In my story, I am my own hero. #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #cptsdrecovery #cptsdawareness #traumarecovery #traumahealing

It might SURPRISE you to know that I'm not PERFECT. 😒 Mum's unsure if it's my AGE or just the WAY I THINK, but I'm NOT really GRASPING names for objects. 🫣 Don't get me wrong, I LOVE 'bringing' Mum things. I just get TO EXCITED about WHAT to bring!!! 😝 So Mum got out her LASER POINTER and started TEACHING me to follow it. I'm LEARNING to bring the item she has it SHINING on!!! 🫡 Totally BEGINNING stages, BUT if I LEARN this, I will be able to HELP more. 🫡🫡 Even pick out specific objects from a SHELF or PILE of similar objects and FOLLOW specific people. 😁 Yes....yes....Mum is careful about my BEAUTIFUL EYES!

girlhood, fermented. left to rot on the counter. gather the tweezers to pluck out the mould spores that taint her skin. you're not allowed to put a voice to the acts. it's still you that's mud stained. his hands come back sterile. your ribcage like a wishbone. pressed into by doctors trying to keep the life in you. but where is the person? who is she but an ink stain? an arteriole slit open by her own hand. who is she if not an inmate? stuck in the prison of a man who stole her body - pressed it up against his want. girlhood, fermented. girlhood, hair torn out by the fistful. girlhood, the loss of a hymn and a hymen. girlhood, and so much aching. you dreamt it would be different. but it's just you and your girlhood, fermented.

Sometimes words are inadequate when it comes to putting a description to how we are feeling. In the words of Eugene Gendlin, before there are words, there is the wordless communication of the body. At times we get a sense that something isn’t right, or that we feel something brewing within us. In these instances, rather than using words, our body is asking us to attune to the sensations present as best we can. I liken such feelings as visitors. When we are able to acknowledge what is here, wanting to get our attention, we might like to greet and make its acquaintance gently, gradually, slowly. Understanding its preferences, the way we would when we get to know a friend. Does it prefer a direct gaze when you meet it, does it like to be greeted with self touch, is what is here asking for some space, would it like to be greeted through movement? It is in the process of becoming familiar with what is here that can allow the words and meaning to form, working at the level of the body, rather than trying to intellectualise something that we may find traumatic. The body knows so much more than our mind, which is why including the body to be part of the psychotherapeutic process can produce such profound and sustained results. #cptsdrecovery #traumarecovery #somatichealing #feltsense #safespace #thebodykeepsthescore #counsellingandpsychotherapy #polyvagaltheory #noticingandnaming

oh saint anthony i fear i am a lost thing. softness come find me. grace come hold me. unbuckle this noosed belt from around my throat. unfurl these knuckles. unfold these stiffened bones. today i don't believe in hope. i am virginia woolf. all pebbles in my pockets and the finality of a river. each day there are more pills. i feel like a clown machine at the carnival, mouth open and waiting. i feel a scream in my stomach but all that comes out is silence. i learnt young that calling out is asking for a palm to the mouth. some days i gnaw on my fist until i am indented with teeth marks. i scribble on my body like i'm an etch a sketch. but there's no erasure. the skin from my thigh lives on my arm. there's no coming back from that. my mutilated body. am i feral enough that no one will touch me again? rotten enough to be ignored this time? please leave me be. saint anthony, let me stay lost if lost protects me from being mounted like a hunted carcass against the wall. pressed like a moth behind the museum glass. all that light. all those eyes. please, let me stay lost. i don't want to be seen. i am so scared to be found.

We really mean it when we say "Don't give up." We almost did. We even tried. And we are so grateful now, that we did not. We are experiencing what we once thought would be impossible to experience.

🌟 Navigating Workplace Boundaries with CPtsd: Mastering the PAUSE Method 🌟 For those with CPtsd, managing boundaries at work, especially with a challenging boss, requires careful preparation and awareness. Here's how to effectively engage the PAUSE method, tailored for your CPtsd needs: Recognize Your State: Before engaging, assess if you're feeling triggered or dissociated. If so, it's crucial to perform exercises that re-engage your prefrontal cortex, crucial for logical thinking and decision-making. Try techniques like focused breathing or reciting a list of items around you to help stabilize your mental state. 🧘‍♂️👀 Flexible Thinking: Embrace flexibility in your approach. Avoid black and white thinking, and stay open to various outcomes. This adaptability can help you manage the conversation more effectively. 🔄 Practice Makes Permanent: Rehearse your responses at home, preferably with a trusted person. This practice helps ensure that even if dissociation occurs during the actual conversation, you'll be prepared to follow through with your planned response. 🏠🗣 Real-World Example: Suppose your boss often calls you out in meetings, making you feel uncomfortable. At home, practice saying, "I've noticed I perform best when feedback is given privately. Could we adjust how feedback is delivered?" This preparation can make a significant difference in the actual moment. 🤓💬 📢 Engage & Share: How do you apply the PAUSE method in professional settings? Do you practice scenarios at home? Share your experiences in the comments or seek advice. Your story might inspire or help someone in a similar situation. 🌐💬 📌 Save This for Later: Bookmark this post to revisit these tips. If you're working with a CPtsd coach, discuss these strategies to enhance their effectiveness. Need a coach? Find one through our directory: https://linktr.ee/thelindam. Using the PAUSE method thoughtfully can empower you to assert your boundaries and maintain professionalism, even in stressful situations. 💪🧠💼 #CPtsdRecovery #WorkplaceWellness #BoundarySetting #MentalHealthAwareness

Therapeutic headway OR is with us now. She is no longer relegated into a dark corner of the mind. She is with us. In comfy fluffy colorful pjs. And we walk with her everyday in our heart. We have brought her in with us. She feels safer. She is comfortable, warm, lying cozy in bed. She is being introduced, it is the year 2024. This is us now. I am an adult and she is looked after. No harm will come to her anymore. Nothing that she experienced will happen again. She is so loved. She is an innocent little child. And she is loved. She is knowing now that she is safe. We are together. She has colour in her life again. She knows she is taken care of. She can play now. There is an adult now who can take care of her and nurture her. She is in our heart. Welcome OR. This is us, grown up. It got better. We are in charge of our life now. Just be you, be a child. Laugh and play. You are so loved.

“It’s all in your head…” Your heart is pounding, your chest is tight, you can barely breathe, the room is spinning -- and you’re wondering if this is what a heart attack feels like. Have you ever ended up in the emergency room with these symptoms only to have the doctor say “it’s just anxiety” -- and then book you with a psychiatrist? “But,” you’re thinking “this is NOT all in my head. These symptoms are in my body too!” Guess what? You’re right. Something VERY REAL is going on in your body and your brain. Anxiety is a disruption in your nervous system, which governs your heart rate, breathing, immune system, digestion, hormones like your thyroid and adrenals and so much more. I dealt with major anxiety, panic attacks and a wide range of physical symptoms for years. When I realized that doctor’s didn’t have a clue, I started looking elsewhere for answers -- and I found them in a surprising place: the world of elite athletes. For elite athletes, their body is their main instrument and there is a massive amount of science that has gone into helping elite athletes perform at the top of their game. It turns out, the average person can also use this same knowledge base and skillset to overcome anxiety naturally and permanently. You don’t have to be an elite athlete. You don’t have to run a marathon. But if you want to, you’ll be able to once you master these skills, transform your anxiety and get your energy, your mind, your body and your life back! If you’d like clarity on exactly what’s going on in your nervous system and how you can overcome anxiety naturally and permanently, DM me ELITE for a free anxiety assessment and action plan!

✨ Perfectionism and high-performing anxiety are more common than you might think, and they often go hand in hand, creating a relentless pressure to excel in every aspect of life. But, beneath the surface of apparent success lies a tangled web of self-doubt and overwhelm. 😰 Perfectionism and high-performing anxiety can be challenging to navigate, but they are not insurmountable obstacles. By understanding the roots of perfectionism, recognizing its ties to childhood trauma and societal pressures, and implementing practical strategies for self-care and support, individuals can begin to embrace imperfection and let go of the need for control.

I’ve had to work on this one. 😂 𝘐 𝘴𝘦𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶. Rest is not easy for people that want to do it all. I’m a giver. I love doing things for other people. But, there comes a point where you’re burnout from giving and giving and giving. Rest isn’t something you should give yourself when you feel like you’ve earned it. You don’t “earn” rest. You 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲 rest. #joy #happiness #love #happy #positivity #positive #fun #hope #nature #takecareofyourself #mrsdaybreak #selfcare #traumarecovery #cptsd #cptsdrecovery #cptsdawareness

Body scans can be a supportive tool at best, and re-traumatizing at worst. We might not have been taught to offer body scans in a trauma informed way, but it’s never too late to shift our practice. 🔒When we lead someone through a body scan, we could be forgetting that there are places in their body that might not feel accessible. ⛈️When we lead someone through a body scan without offering grounding resources, we are not offering support for potential activation. ⚔️When we lead someone through a body scan without using invitational language and adaptations, we are not honoring their autonomy or needs. If it is our practice to lead folks through body scans, let’s check in with our client around their comfortability with their body and accessing it via somatics and mindfulness. We might find that focusing on smaller areas better meets the needs of our client. We might find that our client prefers a different modality for checking in. Listen to your client. Consent is key. To hone your trauma informed approach for body scans and beyond, join the students in Foundations! Bodyworkers, therapists, healers and small business owners will gather in May to learn new trauma sensitive skills. Register by May 10th to save your spot!

I view religious trauma as a sort of cultural disorganized attachment. What I mean is that disorganized attachment happens when your greatest source of love and connection is also a source of fear and abuse. For example, in traditional attachment theory, a parent who is loving at times but is also abusive or distant will create an internalized double-bind for a child. In the same vein as spiritual abuse, the place or person you seek safety from is also the place causing the most pernicious harm. When I first started coming to terms with the spiritual abuse I experienced, it felt like nothing was secure. There is a reason for that. How do you unravel fear from safety when they came from the same source? This is why many people leave religious/spiritual organizations or groups. Unequivocal safety is no longer possible. As a religious trauma-informed therapist, this is your reminder that healing from spiritual abuse can often feel like building a foundation of safety from the ground up. #trauma #traumainformed #traumaawareness #therapist #therapistsofinstagram #ptsd #ptsdrecovery #ptsdawareness #cptsdrecovery #cptsdsupport #cptsdawareness #traumatherapy #anxiety #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthmatters #dallastx #dallastherapist #Igbtqia #lgbtatherapist #religioustrauma #childhoodtrauma #spiritualabuse #exvangelical #attachment trauma therapist in dallas ketamine-assisted psychotherapy in Dallas EMDR therapist in Dallas

Dr. Cierra Listermann draws upon Judith Herman’s insightful observations on trauma recovery to shed light on the essential role of relational healing. Dr. Listermann emphasizes that recovery from trauma is not a solitary journey but one deeply rooted in the dynamics of therapeutic relationships. She highlights the critical importance of creating a secure, empowering environment where trauma survivors can revisit and rebuild the core psychological faculties damaged by trauma, such as trust, autonomy, and intimacy. Through her dedicated clinical practice, Dr. Listermann fosters a therapeutic space that not only aids survivors in reclaiming their sense of self but also empowers them to author their paths to recovery, reshaping how they view themselves and their interactions with the world. With extensive expertise in telehealth, trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, burnout, and LGBTQIA+ issues, Dr. Listermann excels in exploring the transformative power of connection and the pivotal role of personalized care in the healing process.

(Link in bio) Second in this series of interviews with Taylor and her partner Don. Before Taylor met Don, she was enduring a 13-year-long abusive relationship. Taylor tells the full story, what each stage of coercive control was like for her, but most importantly, how she escaped. And now Taylor is living a beautiful life today. I love the opportunity of sharing survivor stories! It helps raise awareness and it empowers the survivors. Do you have a story you want to share? Hit me up in my DM and we can start a conversation. #cptsd #cptsdawareness #cptsdrecovery #cptsdhealing #ptsd #coercivecontrol #coercivecontrolawareness #childhoodtrauma #clusterbabusesurvivor #clusterbabuse #bpdabusesurvivor #bpdabuse #npdabusesurvivor #npdabuse #hpdabusesurvivor #hpdabuse #psychopathicabusesurvivor #psychopathicabuse #sociopathicabusesurvivor #sociopathicabuse

We can take the agony of grief and cloak it in shame and embarrassment (I can’t let anyone know how much I miss my abusive ex. What’s wrong with me for missing the person that hurt me so much?) Or we can accept that all emotions are a gift, and seek support as we ride the waves of grief. #isthisabuse #understandingabuse #traumarecovery #betrayaltraumarecovery #betrayaltrauma #traumarecovery #cptsd #cptsdrecovery #healingafterabuse #emotionalabuse #verbalabuse #infidelityrecovery #affairrecovery Disclaimer: As a certified coach, I only offer advice.

Needy boy's gone weird. He feels the shifts in energy and mood as I hover over different states: *angry, *bereft, *crashed, *dejected, *eerie, *frightened, *grief, *horrified, *infuriated, *justified, *knowing, *lonely, *murky, *nightmares, *overwhelmed, *poorly, *quiet, *rejected, *sad, *trembling, *unloved, *vindicated, *worry, *xtra numb, *yearning, *zapped. We had more windows out of the concrete boot state. Long walk in the woods. Also.... 🎶We got flees, they're multiplying and I'm losing control🎵 - so I sprayed all the rugs and soft furnishings. We achieved more today than we have in weeks. Healthy tea last night and again tonight. The window of shoving stuff down our cake hole is appearing more frequently. Respect the ebb to boss the flow. It will change again. Appetite lost, poor sleep, too much sleep. If you have the luxury of time, you can just go with it. I didn't have that time until now. I was weighed down as my family dropped bombs on my progress. Estrangement has helped free me. #trauma #cptsd #cptsdrecovery #traumarecovery #gaslighting #familyabuse #familyscapegoat #mentalhealthawareness #thebodykeepsscore #metoo #metoomovement

Adult, wise woman you doesn’t rely on anyone else in order to get by in the world - she is independent and resourceful so she can take risks and find support if and when she needs it. ⁠ ⁠ She doesn’t care what other people think of her or her actions. She is firmly grounded in her sense of self, believes in who she is and what she stands for, and therefore doesn’t need validation from others. ⁠ ⁠ This is NOT how little you feels. ⁠ ⁠ Because little you was never independent - she was always reliant on your primary caregivers for survival. ⁠ ⁠ Her parents’ emotional and physical welfare had a direct impact on her emotional and physical welfare, because they created the environment in which she grew up. ⁠ ⁠ She couldn’t feel calm, safe and protected if those around her didn’t feel calm and safe. So this part of you grew up looking for others to provide this FOR her (which now includes your colleagues, friends, partner and kids). ⁠ This all changes when you YOURSELF know how to give your inner child the love and validation that she has always been looking for from your parents. ⁠ ⁠ Because when she has what she needs, she no longer looks for it outside of herself - which is when you stop needing other people to be different or to act differently for you to feel ok. ⁠ ⁠ So if and when you find yourself wishing that someone would change in some way, ask yourself: ⁠ ⁠ ➡️which part of yourself desires this? ⁠ ➡️which of your inner child’s needs is she hoping would be met by this change? ⁠ ➡️how can you meet this need in yourself? ⁠ ⁠ When you can reparent your inner child, adult, wise woman you can step into the driving seat of your life. ⁠ ⁠ And you are finally free. ⁠ ⁠ (Learn which of your inner child’s needs you are not meeting, what your inner child missed out on and why and how to fill that gap through reparenting her, on Making Peace With Your Past - the signature, holistic healing programme that you do online, at your own pace, supported by two group coaching support calls per month with me.

In early #cptsdrecovery, there is a lot of energy around calling out the hurt & harm other people have caused us. This truth needs to be shared in safe places with safe people who can hold space. Part of recovery is seeing your protective parts & energies that are running your show (Resist, Fight, Prove It, I’ll Show Them, Win, Expose) as protective. And, also, NOT the place to stay stuck. This is a training ground in restoring personal power. You have nothing to prove. Stay anchored in love. Turn your light on & shine it even brighter. Whatever “they” did or didn’t do – is on them. And it was their own protective parts & energies driven by fear & control or blocks to giving & receiving love. That is hurt & harm for everyone. I’m not saying you need to forgive. At first you need to feel all the feelings. But after transmuting your trauma, the energy will be restored to neutral. It was never about you; it was always about them playing the hand they were dealt. Shame is not needed. Later in recovery you’ll offer gratitude & forgiveness to the protective parts of you that exposed you or got you through. Need to move your energy? Schedule your #resetwithrenee. #partswork #cptsdrecovery #breathwork #energeticstewardship #cyclebreakers #empowerment #wholehearted

Repost from @letstalk.mentalhealth • Reminders for you! Drop a 💛 if you’re glad you saw any of these. CPtsd recovery, childhood developmental trauma recovery, is an incredibly hard recovery journey, in particular those who are older and have waited decades for the neuroscience to help with recovery and can feel like there’s no life left, who have to face incredible grief for a life dictated by so many aspects that were out of our control. To choose to recover, to do the work, put in the daily time, effort and consistency of healing holistically, of healing the brain, of building the life we wanted to live since we left home, is still incredibly worth it. I believe in you, I see you, I hear you, I care and you are needed here. #cptsdrecovery #developmentaltrauma #complextrauma #onenextstep

Me trying to take a Birthday Picture for my niece with my three Guinea pigs 💐 ☺ Not an easy endeavour ☺ Anything that helps you cope in recovery, with life in general or that sparks a light in you (that is not harmful in any way!) is allowed. For me, it's my love to animals. Caring for animals every day, makes me feel connected, seen and loved. I am so grateful to my little companions 💜 They keep me going 💜 #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #cptsdrecovery #traumarecovery #guineapig #guineapiglove #animallovers #vegan
