Hi, I’m Joni — a survivor of Complex PTSD since I was 13. My healing journey has taken me through many dark and complicated places, including years of using drugs, alcohol, and unsafe relationships as a way to cope with pain I didn’t yet understand. After decades of lived experience, personal growth, and rebuilding, I’ve dedicated my life to supporting others who are navigating their own CPTSD symptoms and survival patterns. This community is a safe, judgment-free space for anyone living with CPTSD. Here, we focus on: - Daily support & grounding tools - Understanding trauma responses (freeze, fawn, fight, flight) - Breaking survival cycles and building safer coping strategies - Reclaiming identity, self-worth, and emotional safety - Compassionate connection with people who truly get it I’m not a therapist — I’m a survivor walking alongside you. My goal is to share what I’ve learned, offer guidance that’s helped me rebuild my own life, and create a place where you never feel alone in your healing again. If you’re looking for real understanding, honest conversation, and daily support to help manage CPTSD, you’re in the right place. You deserve safety, stability, and a future you feel hopeful about. Let’s heal together.
