Resist & Rest Pro-Counselling
🖤❤️‍🩹

Dion and I are working on a project with the goal of reducing the amount of trauma in the world, enabling those who get attacked by the current systems of injustice and/or are fighting back, to rest and recover so they can resist another day.
We'll build this up step by step, keeping our own recovery as a priority because we can't teach what we don't live :')

As part of this project, I am now offering counselling sessions (life coaching for those interested in official categories; I do not have a therapist's licence or certificate, the name "pro counselling" is a rhyme on "co-counselling" which is a mutual aid approach to mental health) at sliding scale prices for anyone who wants someone to talk to, to vent, to process feelings, decisions, or past experiences or to find ways of coping in this current shitshow we're in. To survive, thrive and (re)gain your agency to change the world.

Money: We need to live off something while we do this work, which is why we ask for money on a "everyone receive according to their needs, everyone give according to their means" basis. The more people contribute, whether as a donation or in exchange for the support we offer, the more we will be able to do, and offer free support for those broke comrades who need it most.

About me: I'm queer, somewhere on the plural spectrum, autistic, neurodivergent and willing to find ways of communicating that work for YOU, whether that's text based, voice or videocalls, simultaneous or asynchronous. I can do this in german or english.

I am intentionally crazy, refusing to conform to social norms of performing normalcy and I can encourage you to do the same if you want.

I have self studied psychology and social change since I was 13 (am now 39yo). I have experience coping with and helping friends and comrades deal with and overcome: trauma, abuse, activist burnout, state repression, political violence, intra-community violence, hospitalisation in psych wards, housing insecurity and homelessness, poverty, eating disorders, dissociation, gender dysphoria and more.
