I didn't grow up with therapy in my life. My parents divorced and remarried other partners when I was quite young, and that led to a very large, very blended family full of financial disparity and cultural differences. I didn’t venture into therapy until experiencing depression after the birth of one of my children. I then learned about intergenerational trauma and what damage it can do. I have immediate family who identify as Neurodiverse, Queer and Trans, and have chronic illness and autoimmune disorders and am fully aware of the challenges they face.
