Embodied Trauma Healing, Eating Disorder Recovery, and LGBTQ+ Affirming Therapy and Nutrition Counseling in Seattle
Creating Space for More Aliveness and Choice in Self and Community
The world we live in doesn’t always support you in being the fullest version of yourself. The impacts of trauma and oppression take their toll on not only your material well-being, but also on your ability to show up for yourself, in your relationships, and in your community.
It makes sense that you’re feeling disconnected from what you care about and your sense of power and agency in the world. Systems of domination rely on you being disconnected from your body, from what you care about, and from others.
You might catch yourself thinking things like:
You end up feeling lost, alone, and confused if there is a way forward, another way to be for yourself and for the people you care about. It makes sense that it feels that way. And it doesn’t have to.
The truth is that you deserve a life where safety, dignity, and belonging all get to exist at the same time. You deserve to be able to show up whole in your body, in your life, and with the people who matter to you.
We provide options to meet with our clients via secure video or in-person at our Capitol Hill office. Video appointments, sometimes referred to as telehealth, are a great way to stay connected to the very important work of healing when you can’t make it into the office.
At Have Heart, we hold telehealth as an act of care. We know that offering therapy and counseling online opens up access to healing for folks who otherwise might not be able to make it into the office.
We find that online therapy and counseling can provide rich and deep healing experiences that are just as important as those that might happen in person. We are here with you in navigating what you’re going through, whether online, or in person.
*Please note that telehealth is available for Washington residents only.
You can win the battle over trauma. Your past doesn’t have to run your life. Begin to develop an embodied relationship to yourself and others.
Make peace with food and with your body. You don’t have to live life with food fear. Start your journey towards food freedom.
Take pride in who you are. You can live life with more confidence and more authenticity. Understand your gender and sexual identity and become a more confident and radiant you.
Trauma and oppression want to keep you small and from taking the steps to heal. They keep you in a loop of anxiety. You can’t get the eating disorder voice out of your head. You can’t be you. If you don’t take action, you could keep feeling stuck. You might feel even more burnt out, more alone in it. You wonder what your purpose is. You keep feeling distracted and unsure of yourself and the world. Anxiety seems to run your day. You continue to be at war with your body.
That is one possible future. It isn’t the only one. You could reach out for help. Reaching out is a risk–a risk that might allow you to have more of what you want.
You can have more choice. You can feel more alive. You can have a relationship to your body, to yourself, and to what you care about.
Each of our therapists and counselors are committed and competent to offer embodied trauma healing, eating disorder recovery work from a body and fat liberation framework, and are queer and trans competent. As a practice we are committed to centering queer, trans, black, indigenous people of color. We are weight neutral, trauma informed, sex worker affirming, and poly and kink affirming.
Mental Health Therapist
Politicized Healer
In the tradition of Muay Thai or Thai boxing, a fighter is said to “have heart” when they show up with commitment, passion, and the drive to “leave it all in the ring.” In short, to have heart means to be all in. That’s something we can get behind. At Have Heart we have a strong commitment to the collective liberation of all peoples and to a vision of climate justice that allows life to thrive. Without healing, this work would be impossible. Our commitment to social justice requires that we all have heart.
Have Heart Wellness began in 2014 with the mission of offering heart centered and embodied politicized healing for those most affected by the impacts of trauma and oppression. We’re still here and we’re still committed to the same work. We’re in it for the long haul with you and with the communities we’re a part of.
