Have anxiety and trauma kept you from having the life you want? Do you find that you feel nervous or on edge almost all the time? Perhaps these feelings show up in your interactions with other people or affect your sleep. You might even find your mind replaying the same disturbing image or sound when you close your eyes or whenever it’s quiet. Or possibly you experienced a series of repeated traumas that have made you question and doubt yourself? You know you have the potential to live a happier life, but you haven’t figured out how. You just wish you were over the past by now.
I work with women who live with trauma PTSD and chronic illness. I am not a doctor, but I know that long term illness can impact every facet of your life leading to frustration and limitations as well as uncertainty, depression, and grief. My approach is grounded in compassion, tailored support, and a deep understanding of the mind-body connection.
I am a seasoned trauma-informed therapist. I can help you reclaim your identity and purpose. If we’re working through difficult issues, I will hold the flashlight as we journey together at your pace. Email me today to start cultivating resilience and self-compassion.
