My work is Betrayal Trauma-focused and based in Dr.
I've been listening to women in our community share their stories of betrayal, unraveling infidelity and Deceptive Sexuality for awhile. Before becoming a therapist, I was a coach trained in yoga therapies, breath work, and meditation—I help women breathe and navigate the chaos and confusion of betrayal.
I often hear betrayed partners say: "It's the lying that's the most damaging." Research confirms this. They lying is the most harmful part of cheating. This is often my focus as I support clients to create healing conditions for themselves and their families.

Do you feel like you’ve talked about your past a thousand times, yet your body still feels stuck in "survival mode” like you are perpetually on edge? For many people traditional therapy only scratches the surface. If you are struggling with persistent anxiety, "brain fog," or the lingering effects of trauma, it may be because those experiences are held deep within your nervous system.

For you trying to figure out who you are, where you belong, and what comes next. For the overthinker feeling worried, frustrated, and tired.

Life isn't supposed to feel this hard - but lately, it does.
Relationships feel strained, communication turns into conflict, and even small things can feel overwhelming. You might feel stuck, unsure which direction to go, or constantly second-guessing yourself.
Part of you wonders if your struggles are "serious enough" to deserve help...but another part of you knows something needs to change.
If you're feeling disconnected, emotionally exhausted, or weighed down by past experiences that still show up in your present - you're not alone. And you don't have to keep doing this by yourself.
