What's My Approach to Therapy?
You’ve managed trauma in the past, but recently your coping tools may feel worn out. Maybe you notice overwhelm, disconnection, or patterns that aren't working anymore. Perhaps you've hit what feels like an emotional or physical wall.
Our minds are impressive in the way they protect us from unbearable experiences with anxiety, dissociation, and even psychosis, yet those same defenses can also hold us back. Whether your trauma comes from a complex childhood, a single event, or navigating the challenges of living in a neurotypical world, therapy can help you honor your survival, loosen the grip of the past, and build a life with less distress shaped by choice.
Together, we'll connect how what has happened to you has a profound impact on the way you see yourself, and what you expect to receive from others. We'll think about emotions as internal messages, and explore how our bodies hold and express these messages in very real ways. We'll create a calm, safe place to listen for what you need to heal.
Research has shown that the "fit" between you and the therapist you choose is even more powerful than the specific type of therapy. Let's connect on a free consultation call where I can hear what's really going on for you, and we can see if we're a good match. Even if I’m not the right therapist for you, I'll help you find one who is.
