It’s not just drama, it’s your trauma

It’s not just drama, it’s your trauma

October 25, 2019 //  by Celeste Eckman Himanek, MA, LPC, NCCMHC

It has taken me an inordinate amount of time for me to get my website out into the world. In case you’re wondering what that means in my world, it’s been more than a year. I had no idea how difficult this was going to be. Writing the copy was hard. Consolidating my thoughts was...and continues to be...hard. Marketing, branding, logos, all stuff that I had only a peripheral understanding of still feels hard. Thank goodness for Harmonie Ponder, the magical maven behind Ponder Consulting, whose …

Horses and Healing

Horses and Healing

October 25, 2019 //  by Celeste Eckman Himanek, MA, LPC, NCCMHC

“I remember one day after several years of study, during which I thought I was progressing quite nicely, my teacher said, ‘Riding dressage is not like playing tennis. You can make your body learn the techniques and make your head learn the movements, but the dressage comes from inside of you. You really need to develop your inner life.’  This was a turning point in my life, a quantum leap in my conscious process. I began to understand that people rode the way they were, mentally, emotionally, …

A Dark Night and a Cookie

A dark night and a cookie

October 25, 2019 //  by Celeste Eckman Himanek, MA, LPC, NCCMHC

M***** ******! My expletive burst forth into the chilly evening sky as the wheelbarrow fell over crashing to the ground, spilling the bags of pelleted bedding.  It was dark, I was angry, and I was exhausted. I had had enough. It had been a very long day and it was now after 10 pm. My day hadn't been so bad until the second from the last appointment of the day, a very difficult session. One that left me angry and sad. And now here I was in the dark, alone, and with one more dirty stall to …

The Meme

The Meme

October 25, 2019 //  by Celeste Eckman Himanek, MA, LPC, NCCMHC

I just saw this meme: Doctors don’t make you healthy. Teachers don’t make you learn. Trainers don’t make you fit. Coaches don’t make you rich. At some point you have to Understand that this life is 100% your responsibility.  And it really hit me. Especially the trainer line. You see, last July I had had enough. Enough of working out, enough of dragging myself out of bed at 5:30 am to go work out, enough of driving to the gym. Enough. I needed a break. I had been working out steadily …

What I’ve Learned About Love at Work

What I’ve Learned About Love at Work

March 11, 2019 //  by Celeste Eckman Himanek, MA, LPC, NCCMHC

This is not about what you think it is. I’m not having an affair with anyone at work nor do I plan to. I am very happily married, thank goodness. This is about how I, as a counselor, have come to realize I love my clients. The first time a client told me they loved me, I didn’t know what to do. I had worked with her and her family for about 4 months, and our time together was drawing to a close. As she turned to leave for the day, she threw it casually back over her shoulder, “I love you, …
