Throw back to few weeks ago when I did a presentation for Armenia School Psychologists on how to help their teachers with the aftermath of war and compassion fatigue. Thank you to the Yerevan State University and @armenianamericanschoolpsychs for the amazing work you are doing and for giving me this opportunity to help our mental health providers in Armenia. #notasguidance #healing #aasp #artsakhstrong #mentalhealthmatters

Thank you! #norasguidance #grateful #healthcare #covidlife #safetyfirst #mentalhealthmatters

Where there is life, there is hope.

It is ok! Really! Grief comes in all shapes and sizes. Our family decided not to do Christmas Cards this year to show our respect to our fallen heroes and their families in Armenia. It is ok to feel what you are feeling. So much has happened this year. Take time to grieve. #norasguidance #healing #holidays #artsakhstrong #fallenheroes

Armenians are grieving the loss of our lands as Azerbeijan took over. This is equivalent to the continuation of the genocide started 100 years ago with Turkey’s leadership. #artsakhstrong #norasguidance #lossandgrief #homelessness #armenianlivesmatters #faith #hope #love #courage #unity

As we continue to help our brothers and sisters in Armenia, we can’t dismiss the needs of children in Beirut. Please share with your friends and let’s come together. #norasguidance #beirutblast #beirut #christmas #helpingothers

Coping with Stress. A presentation with Dr. Yeraz Markarian and I.

Signs of anxiety shows up in many ways in children. Pay attention and let me know if you need to be heard and be supported. #norasguidance #anxietyrelief #stressfree #mindfulness #artsakhstrong #covd19 #psychotherapy #teletherapy #telehealth #glendaletherapy #playtherapy #teentalk #relationshipgoals #wegotthis #inthistogether #bekind

Join Dr. Markarian and I on IG Live to talk about coping with stress during these difficult times. @norasguidance #Aamha #aamhavolunteers #artsakhstrong

Armenians all over the world are experiencing emotional reaction to trauma from 1915 Armenian Genocide with the Azeri attacks on Artsakh/Armenia. Our wounds are still open and we need help and support. If you are experiencing irritability, difficulty concentrating, anger, loss of sleep and appetite, the urge to do something to help and guilt, you are suffering from transgenerational trauma. #norasguidance #stoperdogan #stopaliyev #anca #artsakhisarmenia #traumahealing #transgenerationaltrauma #transgenerationalhealing

Dear Facebook Family, I am getting high volume of texts and calls in the last few days about individuals feeling helpless and hopeless with symptoms of anxiety, confusion, fear, inability to focus, inability to eat or sleep, waiting to hear news from Artsakh and a lot of irritability. These symptoms are due to our triggers from our transgenerational trauma passed on to us from 1915 Armenian Genocide and the Lebanese War. Please make sure to check in with one another, talk a...bout your feelings, find a safe place and process your symptoms. I will schedule a Zoom session soon for support. You matter! We matter! Artsakh and Armenia matters! With Love, Nora # #wewillwin #WeCantAllowAnotherGenocide

We have to be nice to ourselves before we expect others to be nice to us. #norasguidance #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #mindfulness #peacefulmindpeacefullife #peacefulmind #parenting #psychotherapy #stressfreeliving #anxietyrelief #teentherapy #talktherapy #glendaletherapy #teletherapy #telehehealth
