      <image:title>Home - Trauma-Informed Care</image:title>
      <image:caption>When assessing trauma we actively try to avoid re-traumatization and integrate knowledge about trauma into procedures, and practices. Our goal is to help recognize the signs and symptoms of trauma and share how we see it showing up for our clients. By naming and speaking to the widespread impact of trauma, we attempt to understand our paths to growth so we can heal from past trauma. We lean on the principles of safety, trust, and transparency. Believing collaboration and empowerment are needed in this space to move with a trauma-informed lens.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Home - Couples Counseling &amp; Relationship Issues</image:title>
      <image:caption>Every relationship is its own experience, each is as unique as the individuals involved. Enkindle Counseling specializes in relationships that could be considered "non-traditional". Specifically, non-monogamy, polyamory, and kink. “You are an experience! Make sure you're a good experience.”</image:caption>

      <image:title>Home - Decolonize Therapy</image:title>
      <image:caption>Anti-Racism and Decolonization approaches exist in all sessions. Decolonizing therapy is about maintaining solutions by bringing healing back into the work vs band-aiding. This can only be done when we all work towards dismantling the larger systems that oppress.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Home - LGBTQAI+ Affirming</image:title>

      <image:title>Home - Grief and Loss</image:title>
      <image:caption>Not all grief comes from a death loss, and not all loss impacts us the same way. Any end or change creates a space for grief, and often Western culture does not allow us to flow through grief as we need to. Grief itself is an experience that often doesn't leave us, we simply learn how to carry it differently. Witnessing grief involves a combination of spirit and ritual to flow through us so that we can all grow from hardship.</image:caption>

      <image:title>About - About Ryan (he/they)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Sometimes things happen, and we are forced to deal with things we never thought we could. At my core I identify as a trauma therapist, my goal for my clients is to find the root of what prevents us from living and being our most authentic selves. When we survive hardship our body holds on to tools that got us through even if they no longer serve us. Sometimes they are perfect for the situation, other times they can make things worse. Together we will slow things down enough to find what works best for you and change reactions to responses. Outside the area of trauma, my practice focuses on grief and loss and sex therapy. In the realm of sex therapy, my area of focus is "non-traditional" relationships, Polyamory, ENM, and kink.  I summarize my style as a post-modern antiracist, decolonization, queer, feminist approach. Western culture has created several narratives that impact how we practice psychology and see ourselves. I believe it is our job to look at these things with a critical eye and break down what is perception and what is the reality for each of us individually so we can inform our communities together.  I am a Certified Death Doula, experienced Spiritual Counselor, and member of the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists. Taking a holistic and integrative approach. With a strong emphasis, on somatic experiencing through a trauma-focused lens and in-the-moment processing. Both individual and relational counseling. My passion is within the LGBTQAI+ community. Change starts with you. But that doesn't mean it has to happen alone. Ryan J. Misegadis MA, NCC, LPC Ryan@enkindlecounseling.com</image:caption>
