Trauma & PTSD Therapy

You hold it together on the outside —
let’s heal what’s inside.

 

Trauma doesn’t just live in the past — it shows up in the present. You may appear fine to the outside world but feel frayed within: quick to snap, easily overwhelmed, or suddenly shut down. Trauma imprints on the body, showing up as tension, hypervigilance, or a nervous system that reacts before you can think — keeping your alarm system switched on even when nothing dangerous is happening.

​

Whether your trauma is rooted in childhood, relationships, loss, or a single overwhelming event, your story matters. I specialize in helping people process and heal from the lingering effects of:

​

• Childhood and attachment trauma

• Growing up with narcissistic or emotionally immature parents

• Family cutoffs or estrangement

• Toxic or abusive relationship dynamics

• One-time traumatic events or medical trauma

• Identity-based trauma, discrimination, or marginalization

​

Much of this work is about unhooking from toxic patterns — in yourself, in relationships, and in the culture around you.

​

• In yourself: shifting out of survival strategies your body once relied on (like shutting down, staying hyper-alert, or people-pleasing).
   

• In relationships: breaking free from cycles of conflict, control, or emotional immaturity that replay old wounds.
   

• In culture: recognizing the societal narratives — about worth, success, gender, or identity — that keep you stuck in shame or burnout.​

 

My approach blends somatic therapy, parts work, and EMDR — helping you reconnect with your body, support the different parts of yourself, and reprocess traumatic memories so you can find more resilience.

 

Healing isn’t about forgetting — it’s about reclaiming your voice in the story. When trauma stops shaping the narrative, you’re free to imagine what comes next.
