My ideal client is living with unresolved trauma—Complex PTSD, sexual assault history, military trauma, or mood instability. They’ve tried talk therapy and understand their story intellectually, but their nervous system still reacts. They feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected. They need a body-based, trauma-focused approach like EMDR or Brainspotting. Their goal is relief, regulation, and reclaiming control of their life—not just coping, but truly healing at the root.
