You feel broken, stuck, and afraid to talk about what happened. Why bring up things you want to forget? You tried talking about it and you were told “you have it better than I did” or weren’t believed. You pushed it down but end up exhausted and empty inside. You're ashamed. Was it your fault? You try to act normal but no one knows the real you. You don’t have energy and don’t know what you enjoy. You don't have friends, you are too burned out. When you aren’t numb you're angry, anxious, and second guessing everything. Why can't you get over it? You keep reliving the mistakes that reinforces the “proof" of your worthlessness.

I work with mind, body, and brain bringing a variety of skills to work with trauma in the way you need. So whether it is CI, Brainspotting, EMDR, Somatic Therapy, talk therapy, or another trauma modality, I can customize your treatment plan to help you get unstuck. I can help you start to feel like yourself again with compassionate interventions that shift the blame and shame. I can help you develop tools that gently ease you back into connection with yourself, others, and the world.
