You may have spent a long time protecting yourself from what happened to you, shaping your life around avoiding anything that might bring those memories back. Yet your body still carries the impact. You might find it hard to stay present when something reminds you of the past, or feel on edge even when you know you’re safe. Your world may feel like it is shrinking as you try to protect yourself, and heavy beliefs like “I’m not good enough” can start to feel true. If any of this feels familiar, you don’t have to hold it alone anymore.
In our sessions, we’ll explore what triggers your nervous system and find ways to respond that feel grounding and supportive. We’ll build coping strategies to help you stay present and move through difficult memories at a pace that feels safe, so the past holds less power and you can life the life you deserve the live.
If you’ve had a difficult therapy experience before, it’s understandable to wonder if this time will be different. With EMDR and Somatic Experiencing, we focus on helping your body release what’s been held so the past has less influence. These approaches go beyond talking about the past. If you're curious, I welcome you to reach out for a free consultation!

Through my experience working in community mental health, I've supported a variety of people dealing with anxiety, depression, PTSD, BPD, bipolar disorder, chronic stress, emotional overwhelm, and complex life experiences.

I work mainly with Somatic Experiencing, along with EMDR. Together, we'll pay attention to what your body is holding, help things settle, and build safety from the inside out. Sessions are calm, collaborative, and always at your pace, supporting you in gently unwinding old nervous system patterns in a way that feels manageable and safe.
