Welcome to Virtual Counsel Blog, the virtual space for psychoeducation and news from Still Waters Counseling Service, LLC, a mental health counseling practice that offers face to face and digitally remote services.
I am Meegan, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of Oregon, providing services to Oregon residents, as well as Digital Nomads, Expats, frequent travelers, and people with geographical challenges.
There are several major themes that often arise during therapy, as well as psychoeducational information I commonly share during counseling sessions. I thought this would be a great way to get that information in an organized format, as well as another interactive way to connect with my clients and community.
This year I plan to use the Virtual Counsel Blog to explore the topics that have been on my heart and mind, just looking for a forum to be shared!
Many of the topics are related to Mental Health for Digital Nomads such as: Solution Focused Brief Therapy and how it can work for individuals or couples, Recovering from Infidelity, Virtual trauma modalities such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Brain Spotting treatment, When Culture Shock Triggers Trauma Response, Parenting On the Road, Self-Care for the Entrepreneur, Healthy Communication in Long Distance Relationships, Maintaining Healthy Boundaries in Relationship When You Live/Work/Play Together, Attachment Trauma and Recovery, Dealing With Loneliness and Isolation on the Road, Choosing a Digital Career Path that Provides Freedom and Feeds Your Soul, and the Stigmas Digital Nomads and Travelers Face. I’m sure along the way, I will identify more relevant topics to explore!
I want to open this space to allow other Digital Mental Health Professionals a place to share, and I look forward to welcoming their thoughts and expertise. So, don’t be surprised if you see someone else chipping in from time to time.
Now for the fine print… as you can see, you will be exposed to some of my ponderings on mental health and nomadic issues. Everyone is more than welcome to respond, comment, and share their point of view and experience. I would ask that you keep the comments relevant to the blog post, to add value and depth to our discussion.
