Does it feel like you're going insane?
You’ve been feeling restless, unable to shake the constant tension in your body.
Maybe your shoulders ache from carrying stress, or you're confused as to why these feelings are resurfacing now, after all this time.
​
Some days, it’s hard to know what’s real anymore.
​
You’ve caught yourself breaking down in the supply closet at work or sitting in your car after a long day, feeling overwhelmed and exhausted. The career you once loved feels more like a burden. The weight of shame feels suffocating.
​
There’s that harsh inner voice telling you you're not good enough, that you're failing.
Even sleep—when you can get it—is haunted by bad dreams.
​
It feels like you’re on the verge of breaking.
Can you relate to these trauma symptoms?
-
Sleep Disturbances:
It’s tough to fall asleep or stay asleep, with restless nights haunted by unwanted thoughts and memories.
-
Overwhelming Emotions:
Feelings of panic, shame, and guilt may linger beneath the surface, bubbling up unexpectedly and overwhelming you, often at the most inconvenient times.
-
Constantly Questioning and Condemning:
You feel plagued by what-ifs and insecurities. Your inner critic is on full blast.
-
Disconnected:
Feeling checked out, sometimes your vision gets blurry or it’s like there is cotton in your brain, thinking feels fuzzy.
-
Numb and Avoid:
You prefer to ignore certain places, relatives, or activities. You’re craving relief and a distraction from the misery yet those old habits that used to provide temporary relief are now contributing to the cycle of pain.
Find Confidence, Worthiness,
and Calm
In our therapy sessions, you are met with compassion, gentleness, and deep understanding.
​We work together to uncover what’s beneath the surface and to help you reclaim the sense of safety and worthiness that is rightfully yours.
​
Many of my clients have experienced some form of unwanted sexual contact, whether it was childhood abuse, sexual assault, or inappropriate behavior. This includes women who have survived incest, men who were sexually abused by Priests or other religious figures, and nonbinary individuals who have experienced date rape.
​
Clients often share that through our work, they feel more grounded, more confident, and finally safe in their bodies.
​
Using a blend of Internal Family Systems (IFS) parts-work and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy), we process traumatic memories, allowing you to release their emotional hold and form new, positive beliefs about yourself—like “I am safe,” “I am enough,” and “I matter.”
​
In our sessions, we focus on the wisdom of your body, noticing its signals and moving in ways that help you process and release the trauma held deep within. I’ll guide you through this healing process with patience and care.
