You have tried a lot of things - including therapy - and you still don't feel right. Even if the hard parts about your life don't change, you want more ease. You know you can't rewrite history, but you want to be able to move forward with energy and a sense of wholeness.
My approach is not about solving circumstances. It's about experiencing your capacity for the ups and downs of life with less bracing and vigilance. We work on this together by exploring how your automatic responses to events interact with your body, emotions and thoughts.
Visit my website and watch a few of the videos on my blog to get a feel for how I work.

My primary approach is somatic/body-based. This means were are working with the signals you experience physically - learning to pay attention to them better, or learning to respond to them differently. I incorporate co-regulation practices, Safe & Sound protocol, and eco-therapy strategies.
