You long for deep, lasting connection. But when someone gets close, you tighten inside, like you're anticipating being let down, rejected, or hurt. This leaves you unable to be your full self, always adapting to meet expectations or avoid tension. All the while you carry the belief that something in you is fundamentally wrong or unlovable. You sense that your history of childhood trauma and relationship trauma is shaping how you feel in the present. This history has you caught in cycles of automatic, difficult to control reactions, endlessly bracing for the worst while you search for inner peace and secure, fulfilling relationships.

Using EMDR, IFS, and somatic therapy we'll examine the moments when you go into self-protection mode and familiar patterns play out. We'll get curious about the parts of you that expect to get hurt and explore different ways to respond. From there, the automatic reactions start to shift, opening the door for the safety and connectedness you've been seeking.

I recognize the courage and vulnerability it takes to reach out for support. To make starting therapy as easy as possible, I offer free phone consultations where you can share your goals, get all your questions answered, and see if this feels like a good fit. Reach out today to schedule a consultation with me. I'm so looking forward to connecting with you!
