Can't Shut My Mouth

A traumatized therapist's advice on how to grow grit

About

Hello! I’m Jess Bany. I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist of nearly 20 years. I specialize in treating trauma through various modalities including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing and Ego State Therapy.

On November 25, 2023 I crashed my mountain bike and suffered a facial trauma. I created this blog to chronicle my healing journey and how I grow my resiliency to continue to have a life that I love. The insights I have gained from being a clinician and from witnessing the healing of others, have undoubtedly helped me to not get stuck and continue to heal. My wish is that something you read helps you with whatever battle you are fighting and to grow your grit.
