When you’ve been through something painful, it can stay stuck—showing up as anxiety, shame, or memories that won’t leave you alone. EMDR helps your brain and body release that stuck stress so you can feel calmer and more in control.

You don’t have to retell every detail. We move gently and at your pace, helping you feel lighter inside as the memories lose their power.

Over time, you may notice less tension in your body, fewer triggers, and a deeper sense of peace in your daily life.

When you’ve lived in survival mode for a long time, your body can stay tense or shut down—like it doesn’t know the danger is over. Somatic Therapy helps you tune into your body and learn simple ways to calm your nervous system.

We use gentle noticing skills to help you find what feels steady or okay in the moment, instead of getting lost in the past. As your body learns it’s safe to relax, you may start to feel more grounded, less anxious, and more connected to yourself and the world around you.

After trauma, it can feel like different parts of you want different things. One part might hold pain, another might try to keep everything together, and another just wants to disappear. Parts Work helps you understand these sides of yourself with care instead of judgment.

In therapy, we focus on helping these parts feel safe and begin to work together. You don’t have to get rid of any part of you—instead, we help them connect so you can feel more balanced, calm, and whole.

Sometimes it can feel like different parts of you are living separate lives—one that gets things done, one that carries pain, and one that shuts down to cope. The Structural Dissociation Model helps make sense of this experience. It explains how the mind protects itself during trauma by separating what feels too overwhelming to face all at once.

In therapy, we don’t rush or force anything. We focus on helping these parts of you feel safe, connected, and supported. Over time, you may notice that you feel more whole, more present, and more in charge of your inner world.

This understanding guides how I pace our work together—ensuring safety and stability before processing painful memories. It integrates naturally with EMDR, Somatic Therapy, and Parts Work to support deep, lasting healing.

When you’ve lived through trauma, it can shape the way you think about yourself and the world. CBT helps you notice patterns—like self-criticism, guilt, or fear—that keep you feeling stuck.

Together, we’ll slow things down and look at the thoughts and beliefs that show up when you’re triggered. You’ll learn practical ways to calm your body, challenge old narratives, and begin to respond to stress with more choice and confidence.
