“Krista, I was sitting here thinking about trauma and this thought came to me and I had to write it down…

After experiencing a severe trauma, it’s like you walk around with it as if it is a raincloud looming over you wherever you go, and until someone comes to you and opens up an umbrella for you, you can never experience the sun…

Thought you would appreciate this thought….Thank you for being someone who always carries an umbrella!” (from a former patient)

“I have been through a lot in my childhood and young adult years. I was looking for a place for help and knew I needed a safe and calm place to talk about these things. Krista made it easy for me to open up about these feelings about my trauma–to be free of these things. Because I never had that place/space/person to share these things with, my body was literally shutting down about this–but the medical doctors couldn’t heal me. With Krista’s help, I am now in a much better place both physically and mentally, and I am so thankful for her support, teaching, and understanding. I am mostly thankful that my children get to experience this version of myself.” (from a former patient)
