Are you a young woman trying to find your way out of childhood trauma into a space of healing?
If a deep dive meant transformation, would you be willing? Dipping in one toe at a time until you felt safe in the therapeutic relationship to take the plunge? Have you had a sense that your younger selves have things to share with you, that they are ready for you to release them from the confines of core beliefs born out of trauma, no matter how big or little it seems? If you are curious about what inner child work, exploring and understanding with compassion all of your parts, reparenting, and EMDR can do for you, let's connect.
My passion is working with female-identified people who are struggling with unresolved wounds from the past. You may know what the root causes are. You may have a vague sense of them. You may be lost as to why you are not connected to yourself/others, living authentically, or repeating destructive patterns. Let's discover and walk your healing journey.
I am extremely fortunate to have worked with a great diversity of clients in terms of race, ethnicity, religion, genders and sexual orientations. I bring our differences to light and explore their impact on our work. This capitalist system can create and compound deep trauma and fracture our psyches.
