The Healing Spot Blog: Triggered But Healing

Because healing isn’t perfect.

This blog is called Triggered But Healing because that’s what real healing looks like.

You can be doing the work, showing up to therapy, setting boundaries, and still get overwhelmed, still feel anxious, still get triggered. That doesn’t mean you’re failing. It means you’re human.

At The Haven Healing Spot, we believe healing is a journey, not a straight line. This blog is a space for honest conversations, gentle reminders, and tools to help you through the hard days and celebrate the small wins. You’ll find stories, tips, and encouragement from therapists who get it, and from a community that’s walking through healing too.

Whether you're navigating trauma, burnout, grief, or just trying to breathe, this space is for you.

You can be triggered and healing at the same time, you are not behind.... You’re becoming.

Our Mantra:

Therapy isn’t about being fixed...It’s about being found.

Smiling But Sad: What Depression Can Really Look Like

You’re showing up. You’re smiling. You’re functioning, but something still feels off.You laugh when you’re supposed to. You post. You get through the day. But beneath it all… there’s a heaviness. A quiet, aching tiredness. A part of you that’s just going through the motions.
