Loving this idea:

Start Taking “Invisible Days” ASAP — Your Mind and Body Will Thank You I felt less reactive throughout the day — and slept better, too.

It was an honor to speak and and have a booth at this year’s pride festival. Such a warm and welcoming crowd. I enjoyed meeting so many beautiful souls!

come see me at Bozeman pride! We will have a booth and I will be putting on a presentation at 10am. Lots of fun free stuff and fun activities!

Pride in the Park is the main daytime event for Bozeman Pride 2026!

Celebrate Pride at Lindley Park from 10 am to 4 pm with a day of fun, connection, and community resources. The line-up includes an educational speaker series kicking off at 10:30 am, a Drag Story Hour at 11 am, Pride Speeches at 12 noon, an All-Ages Drag Show at 1pm, and more! At the Pride-A-Palooza booths, organizations and businesses will offer interactive activities that showcase resources available to and supporting 2SLGBTQIA+ folks in Bozeman, the Gallatin Valley, and Montana.

This community-strengthening day of programs welcomes all and celebrates the passion, diversity, history, culture, joy, and resilience of Two-Spirit, Le***an, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Q***r, Intersex, Asexual, and other identities under the glorious rainbow.

that’s the work.

I’m currently working on getting certified in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), which is a type of CBT designed specifically for treating PTSD and trauma-related issues. If you—or someone you know—are wanting to work through trauma in a practical, effective way, I’d love to connect. I really believe our past experiences shape so much of how we move through the world, and there’s a lot we can learn (and heal) from them. I’m super passionate about helping people work through PTSD and really excited to be stepping into this specialty.

I adore this and believe it is the true essence of therapy. Do you agree?

We grow up learning maths, essays, deadlines, and routines, but no one teaches us why we shut down, lash out, overthink, avoid, cling, or go numb. No one explains why you freeze when someone raises their voice. Why conflict makes your stomach twist. Why you struggle to say no. Why you keep choosing emotionally unavailable people. Why rest feels unsafe. Why calm feels unfamiliar. These aren’t “random” behaviours. They’re your nervous system, your attachment style, your past experiences, and your unmet needs all speaking in the only language they know. The moment you understand what your behaviours are trying to do — protect you, help you cope, keep you safe etc. everything starts to make sense. Self-awareness isn’t about judging yourself. It’s about finally understanding yourself. That’s exactly why I wrote my e-book Stop the Spiral, to help you make sense of your patterns, calm your nervous system, and break the cycles that keep you stuck in survival mode. If you’re ready to understand the “why” behind who you are, and actually change the patterns that exhaust you, comment “BOOK” and I’ll send it to you.
