If you've experienced emotional trauma in your life YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

​

So many of us go through traumatic events and incidents from sexual assault, to abandonment, loss of a loved one, emotional & mental abuse, narcissistic relationships, and everything in between.

​

Please believe me when I tell you, that if you can relate to the pain of emotional trauma then you and I have something in common.

​

I know that while undergoing traditional therapy is a valid and worthwhile option, not everyone feels comfortable sitting down with a stranger and baring their soul.

 

I know I didn't.

​

That's when I discovered journal therapy.

​

Unlike writing in a diary,  journal therapy is a strategic and structured way to privately dig deeper into issues that are causing you pain and access ways to set yourself free.

​

And the best part is that YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A GREAT WRITER TO DO IT.

​

ALL YOU NEED IS A PEN AND A JOURNAL OR PIECE OF PAPER.

​

I call it gyspy journaling because it gives me a sense of freedom and of becoming untethered from things that are holding me in place. 

​

Studies have proven that journal therapy can reduce stress, and anxiety, and can provide an overall sense of calm and wellbeing to those who practice regularly.

​

It's up to you whether you keep your journal entries private or share them with other women who understand what you are going through.

 

At first, I chose to keep mine private but I know it can be daunting to get started, so I have decided to share my entire with you.
