Teletherapy

These moments, strung together, making up the days — they’re unprecedented. Uncertain. It’s difficult navigating how to show up, knowing what to say, how to feel, and how to hold space for yourself, let alone those you love.

There’s not a prescription for what we’re going through — no playbook to reference. This is it, us, the collective living each moment, trying to figure out how to respond to the next.

Although we may not be immune to heartbreak, stress and anxiety, or illness, what is true is the divine — the sacred is immune to this pandemic. The waning of the moon still happens, the tides still roll onto the shore, the birds are still sending out their morning calls — the transcendent is still here.

Teletherapy and online counseling services are vital in our current climate.

We’re all having an experience right now that is terrifying, and even though most of us are inclined to seek the positive, the collective balm is not sidestepping and saying, “it will all be alright.” This is bypassing our full experience and covering wounds that need to heal.

Our hearts may feel sick and our minds might be racing — chaos may be front and center. In these unsettled times, though we can’t control much of what’s going on in the physical, we can control how we respond.
