About Healing From Harm
I have returned from darkness so many times that I now alchemize trauma and preach of matriarchy. – Laura Rose

My world tore apart in fall of 2016 when I fell into a nervous breakdown from improper SSRI withdrawal and re-instatement, bad therapy, a dying pet, and a poisoned marriage. At age 40, I no longer lived as frozen but functional woman in an unhappy life. Instead, I spiraled into hell and had to climb my way out to find the real me underneath all the trauma.

My Story
About Me
I had to build myself up from ground zero. Parts were evacuated from the darkest parts of my terror on my body and soul. I still find myself excavating from places I never thought I’d find.
At first, I couldn’t bear to think about taking a step down the deep, dark entrance of my wounds, but now, I have done the dance of death to rebirth so many time, I carry all the essentials I need to save another piece of me.
I often tell people, I am creating a universe from the void within.
I had no idea how to do this so I went to the divine God that does it everyday – Mother Nature. From her womb to mine, I built my body and mind from the rubble. I am not three stories high from tens of stories below.
I have left much behind – abusive relationships, misogynistic values, failing structures that weren’t as stable as I once though. My footings grow stronger every season, every circle around the sun. I move forward with some deep wounds still to heal and a fresh fire to feed me good and plenty for my goals ahead.
My voice yearns to speak all that I was forced to swallow and tell women everywhere that the journey from ground zero is there for them too. Pur me in your backpack as you descend. I am another support system to help you through.
