Trauma-Informed Counseling for Soul-Deep Healing at The Healing Cottage: I believe your story isn't over; it’s just beginning a new chapter. If you’re introspective, open-minded, and ready to do the intentional work needed to heal, you don’t have to walk that path alone.
Clients come into the office carrying the invisible weight of childhood trauma or navigating painful life transitions. Some are looking for a counselor who understands the spiritual and psychological impact of their experiences. What they all have in common is a desire for more than survival - they’re seeking healing that leads to thriving.

I am a Certified Emotionally Focused Therapist and Supervisor specializing in treating couples and families. The journey of life can be difficult. As humans, we "need emotional connection like we need oxygen” (Sue Johnson). Strong relationships enable us to move forward through life stresses and reach our potential. But when we are disconnected from others (or even from our own core values), we may experience depression, anxiety or despair; this lets us know we are outside of our truth and need to make a change. EFT is the roadmap I use to help couples, families and individuals heal, build bonds and access their core essence.

My ideal client is living with unresolved trauma—Complex PTSD, sexual assault history, military trauma, or mood instability. They’ve tried talk therapy and understand their story intellectually, but their nervous system still reacts. They feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected. They need a body-based, trauma-focused approach like EMDR or Brainspotting. Their goal is relief, regulation, and reclaiming control of their life—not just coping, but truly healing at the root.

Sometimes life feels overwhelming and out of control. It can leave us feeling consumed by stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and hopelessness. While these emotions are an expected part of life, there are times they can grow so strong and intense that we feel powerless to manage them on our own. We may see their impact on various parts of our life – family, work, social relationships, our ability to feel pleasure, our overall quality of life. If this resonates with you, if this is what you are experiencing, therapy can help.
