Are trauma and PTSD symptoms leaving you feeling exhausted, overwhelmed and disconnected? Are you feeling the pressure to be perfect all the time or struggle to maintain focus and presence of mind? You’re someone who wants more out of life but still find yourself stuck in the past, feeling anxious and disconnected from others and your own sense of self. You crave healthy relationships but fear being hurt. But you’re ready to make a change. You’re ready to recover from your past and explore inner resources. You’re ready to live in the moment. Most of all, you’re ready to discover how to transform difficulty into growth and vitality.
Clients come to me looking for a therapist who “gets” what they’ve been through because therapy should be a place where you feel a sense of connection and support. Sessions with me are more than just talk; I specialize in somatic and trauma focused therapies, inviting a mind-body approach that’s gentle and at a pace where a felt sense of safety is priority.
I’ll meet you where you are at and offer you the support you need to rely on the wisdom of your body to create new experiences in your healing journey. A life where you feel your own resiliency. You don’t have to continue feeling stuck in the past, and you don’t have to do it alone. Call me today for a free 15-minute consult. I can’t wait to hear from you.
