LAist relies on your reader support.

Your tax-deductible gift today powers our reporters and keeps us independent. We rely on you, our reader, not paywalls to stay funded because we believe important news and information should be freely accessible to all.

Confusion, unrest, fear, uncertainty — create your own word cloud of uncomfortable feelings generated by the insurrectionist siege on our nation’s Capitol and then try and process them with your family.

It’s a lot, so we reached out to L.A.-based therapist, artist and healer Thea Monyeé for some guidance.

And we’re listening. Tell us how you’re processing your feelings by emailing the reporter at mdale@scpr.org and we’ll update this post with what you share.
