The body carries the legacy of trauma and attachment dynamics in habits of movement, posture and nervous system regulation that can keep us stuck in the past. Therapeutic engagement doesn't have to be dysregulating and overwhelming. You shouldn't leave a therapy session feeling worse than you did when you showed up. Unfortunately, traditional talk therapies can inadvertently trigger your nervous system into survival mode. If we aren't tracking and recognizing what is happening underneath the words, therapy can feel excruciating, especially if there is a history of trauma at any stage of development.

Sometimes in life we come to feel like we have run out of answers and don't know where to turn. Sometimes we just can no longer deal with others, our kids, our work or even ourselves. If this sounds like you or someone you know, then I can help. I can provide a safe, supportive and confidential environment that allows us to work together, using your natural strengths to find answers, increase your sense of well-being and life functioning.
