Trauma may shape your past, but it does not have to define your future. Even when shame, fear, or self-doubt feel overwhelming, there is a path forward. I know how painful it can be to carry the impact of childhood trauma, abuse, sexual assault, or other life challenges that leave you feeling stuck and disconnected from yourself and others. You may be longing to feel grounded, to reclaim your voice, and to move beyond survival into a fuller and more connected life. My goal is to help you discover the strength already within you and support you in creating lasting change. I am supervised by Lauren Gastorf, LPC-S.
As a trauma-informed therapist and registered yoga teacher, I integrate EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic interventions, and mindfulness to help clients process trauma, release painful memories, and restore nervous system balance. Together, we will gently unburden the parts of you carrying pain to allow you to reconnect with your authentic self.
Healing from trauma can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to carry it alone. I offer a compassionate space to process pain, rebuild trust in yourself, and find the calm you deserve. If you’re ready to get started, email me to schedule a free phone consultation to explore whether we might be a good fit!
