Trauma can happen as a result of an overwhelmed nervous system - too much, too fast, too soon. But trauma can also happen when there isn’t enough of something that was needed - support, care, acceptance, protection.
Maybe you’ve been talking about your experiences for so long that it just feels like a script, a movie that happened to someone else. But you still feel the effects of it all the time - struggling to trust, to regulate, to breathe. Maybe you’re only beginning to realize that your experiences were a lot harder to manage than you thought. Maybe you have this underlying feeling all the time that something is wrong with you and that you don’t actually deserve love.
You are not broken. Your wounds don’t have to feel impossible to heal. With over 14 years of experience in the field, I’ve learned how to hold space these feelings in order to help you fully understand and heal them.

There’s a lot of awareness on social media now about the nervous system and the need to “regulate” it. In my practice, I work with clients to build flexibility in their nervous systems so they can find more moments of calm while also following their systems needs in any given moment.

Maybe you’re able to do everything you need to do day to day. You “function” just fine, and actually, people rely on you all the time. But deep inside anxiety is constantly running the show. Or you always worry you did something wrong, or obsess over things you said or did.
You deserve a space to rest. You deserve to find stillness within yourself.

EMDR is an excellent framework to address the root of negative core beliefs and trauma overall. It involves bringing a difficult memory to mind and then introducing tasks to load the short-term memory, which allows the emotional “charge” of the memory to shift or completely decrease. In my experience, EMDR can begin shifting a memory in a very short time.

With my clients, we practice deep awareness and mindfully observe the information that is always being given by the body to gain more understanding and peace.

Parts work assumes that we all have separate parts of ourselves that have competing interests. Sometimes, with difficult experiences we may feel “stuck” at a certain age or belief. When we can develop understanding of the different parts of ourselves, we can cultivate more understanding, “update” stuck versions, and find different ways of showing up in the world.

Conflict or feeling disconnected is a normal part of any deep relationship. I primarily use the Gottman Method in my work with couples and would love to support you in finding your way back to one another.
