Healing is a process of resolving difficult experiences that are still negatively impacting wellness, with the goal of lessening undue pain and supporting positive change.

Processing describes making sense of an experience, recognizing its impact, and includes working with the body via the nervous system and connecting to emotions.

Coping is about managing current stressors and getting through difficult moments.
