Having an identity as an adolescent is incredibly important when it comes to our mental growth. So in our younger years, we spend a lot of time, trying different things out, testing out different sports, joining theater club, being a part of speech and debate or sports. All in an effort to figure out who we are, and what our purposes in life. so for someone like Jess, our guest today who did nothing but ski and snowboard from age 2 until she retired in her 20s, all she was was snowboarding. She learned how to find herself during her snowboarding career so when a major life event happened in her early 20s, she went through a shocking revelation.

Have you ever been in a situation where you felt so incredibly alone? I know I have. That loneliness was felt in my business, my friendships, my family, and so many other places. 

The reason I felt this loneliness was because I was experiencing a serious lack of support from so many important people in my life. 

As we grow emotionally and mentally, the friends and people we used to have surrounding us may not fit into the life we used to live. This old version of ourselves may have had a very different type of support system than what we need going forward. 

So let’s say you’ve transitioned away from your party friends, your toxic family, and have only just begun fostering the valuable relationships in your life you feel can be the support system you need. But, it’s not happening as fast as you want or need. So what do you do? 

You start laying down the foundation for developing your own support systems. But where do you start? The ways you used to build support systems looks very different than the way you did so in the past.

This week we’re speaking with Vanessa Rosage, LPC. Vanessa has been a therapist for 14 years. Currently, she runs a private practice and works primarily with children, parents, families, couples, adolescents and young adults. During her time with her patients, she uses several tools to help each patient and has a foundational theoretical orientation that is rooted in interpersonal neurobiology, which aims to heal trauma, anxiety, fear and shame through the connection and relationship between people. As a trained DEEP specialist, Vanessa understands how to create safe and healing environments in the therapeutic relationship. 

She has also completed her fourth full week of somatic experience training, focused on helping individuals process experiences of overwhelm in trauma focus on the body. Vanessa has extensive experience working with individuals who perceive the world with heightened sensitivity and experience a diversity of thought, feeling and perception that may not always fits with the way Society expects. I'm excited to have Vanessa in this episode on how childhood trauma affects us in adulthood. Check out the links below to follow Vanessa and learn more about DEEP therapy.
