I will actively listen and provide you a safe space

Your personal empathic listener is here! My name is Erika. I have been on my healing journey for almost a decade. The beginning was so challenging, I didn't know if I would ever get out of the darkness. However, with health tools now in my mental health tool bag and unconditional love and support, I have improved so much. So much that I want to help others, like me.

Saying it with my chest is one way I was able to gain power in finding and using my voice. There were times where a quick call or text to one of best friends or a family member would make a world of difference in my day.

Trust the process. Thats what I am constantly told. At first I challenged that term. Yet, with more time I finally understood and leaned into it. It can be scary and enlightening at the same time. Learning about yourself and owning your healing can be so empowering.

Releasing to relax is now of my new mantras. A symptom of trauma is being hypervigilent. When the nervous system is in constant fight or flight it can be difficult to be present and enjoy life as it's intended. Once I leaned into the process, I gained a new appreciation for relaxation.

I am here for you.
