About
Bad things have happened to you and you wonder if life will ever get better. You desperately want happiness, but it always feels out of reach. You feel irritable and overwhelmed by worries and your relationships are suffering because others just don’t get it. You're trying to hold it together, doing the best you can, but you feel like it's never good enough. You can’t stop thinking about the past even though you try. You wish you could just "get over it", you're angry that you can't, and you're wondering if you'll ever feel normal. More than anything you want to feel connected to others and start feeling excited about life!
It may be hard to imagine, but healing from this pain is possible! I provide a treatment approach that directly addresses the impact of trauma on your body and mind. You will learn to understand and appreciate your answers as strengths as we get to the root of your pain together and you experience true transformation--feeling happy, whole and free again.
I am passionate about coming alongside women who've had bad things happen to them. I've created a nurturing space free of judgement where you can tell your story and we can do the work of healing together. I have specialized training in EMDR, somatic approaches and maternal mental health. I'd love to help you get your life back. Call me when you're ready!
