Bringing Hurricane Hope

Together We Survived

Here we are, survivors together in the aftermath of two natural disasters in two weeks. Honor Your Way Therapy is bringing Hurricane Hope to help Floridians heal into recovery from Helene and Milton. As time moves on and we stabilize a bit, fatigue is setting in. Some things are a bit “normal,” like the power coming back in many areas (thank you stoplights!). I imagine we all feel something like we were hit by a truck and could sleep for a week! Also, our emotions might be hitting us like a ton of bricks. If there ever was one, now is the time for therapy.

Together We Feel

Whatever your circumstances, you may fear that another storm will come, while anxiety or depression may also kick in. Maybe you had an important celebration like a birthday or a wedding that was disrupted and you feel sad or mad. Perhaps you have been busting your booty helping your community, now feeling exhausted and needing to take care of yourself. Sometimes guilt from surviving with little or no damage can take a grip on our heart. It may be that you are just now beginning to grieve the losses and you are feeling overwhelmed. Now is the time to ask for help from a therapist.

Together We Heal

I am Tracy Sisk, and I am here as a fellow hurricane survivor who happens to also be a therapist. My heart is heavy for all of us who are going through this very difficult time, and I bring hope that we will heal together. I am empowered with therapeutic skills and ready to help you restore your emotional-relational health and manage the practical needs you have right now.

All therapists have super powers, one of mine is creating a healing space with compassion and empathy where you can release your grief and other feelings. Your journey with me will regulate and calm your nervous system. I will help you connect with your heart, mind, body, and spirit. There is power in this embodiment, as it will keep you present and grounded to make important decisions.

From a practical perspective, we can search for resources and tap into your creativity to explore a variety of options and opportunities. You can talk out decision points, such as to rebuild or relocate. We can work through challenges with your business, job, home, school, or relationships. As we move through the process, will address whatever surfaces for you and I will make recommendations or referrals as needed.

Together We Help

To help in the best way I can, I am providing several scholarships and free/pay-as-you-can opportunities for a limited number of individuals and couples/partners, and group opportunities. Along with helping people get what they needed in the survival stages, I am happy to give back through my practice~ though I do wish I could do much more!

Together We Honor Our Way

Whatever your circumstances may be, I am glad you made it here. I will be ready to provide you with healing therapy when you are. I am wishing you all my best as we honor our way forward together.

What is Emotional-Relational Health?

Emotional health is related to our sense of wellbeing and vital to our ability to thrive. Experiencing and getting comfortable with emotion regulates our nervous system. This centers and grounds us to stay present in situations to make sound decisions. Making better choices improves our confidence to take bold steps forward.

Relational health focuses on establishing and maintaining meaningful relationships. Exploring and creating ways to repair and nurture connections at home, work, and play improves the quality of our life. Having a secure base of people who are there for us can relieve feelings of loneliness and depression, decrease stress and anxiety, and lift our spirits.

~ Emotional-relational health is key to our ability to recover and even grow after disasters like we are experiencing right now in our region.

A Therapy Success Story

Several years ago I had the pleasure to help a middle-aged couple who were in crisis with a life-threatening disease and likely divorce. They were overwhelmed with medical treatments, financial distress, and dysfunctional family dynamics. Through our therapy, they changed directions of their health and their marriage.

They slowed down to breathe, process grief, and empathize with each other. They stabilized their finances and set-boundaries in family relationships for their safety and stability. Living hope as a verb, they created a way for consistent medical care that brought pain relief and a better prognosis for survival. They bonded their union with mutual trust, heart-to-heart connection, and renewed commitment.

Before I left this clinical site, a nurse told me they said our therapy had saved their marriage~ Though the truth is, I simply walked beside them as they did the hard work to honor their way together.
