Do you ever notice your brain tends to overthink everything, your body is always on high alert or totally shut down or you find yourself stuck in people-pleasing or perfectionism? You might feel exhausted trying to keep it all together, confused by your reactions, or frustrated that things still feel hard even when life looks fine on the outside. Many of my clients struggle with people pleasing, perfectionism, setting boundaries, codependency, anxious or disorganized attachment, eating disorders, or religious trauma.
My approach is unique because I integrate IFS, EMDR, and polyvagal-informed care to allow emotional processing to happen in a way that feels safe and respectful. We take time to build trust and gain permission from protective parts first so nothing feels overwhelming or forced. We don’t bulldoze into trauma, to go slow is to go fast.
Instead of focusing on what’s "wrong", I will help you get curious about the parts of you that developed to help you cope, even the parts you don’t like. I love this work because I truly believe it brings lasting change. There’s always a reason your system learned to respond the way it does, even if it’s confusing or frustrating now.
