Trauma and Somatic Healing

TRAUMA HAS A WAY OF STICKING AROUND

EVEN WHEN YOU THINK YOU’VE OUTRUN IT…

… it shows up in ways you don’t always expect.

Maybe you’re constantly on edge, bracing for the next thing to go wrong. Maybe you feel detached, like you’re just going through the motions while life passes you by. Or maybe the weight of inherited responsibilities, societal expectations, or capitalism has left you carrying more than anyone should have to hold. Even when you tell yourself you’re “fine,” there’s a part of you that knows the truth, and is ready to feel something different.

I SPECIALIZE IN DEVELOPMENTAL AND COMPLEX TRAUMA

Did you experience anything like this growing up?

  • Distracted caregivers who were too busy to comfort you and help you understand your emotions

  • Being in charge of your siblings and taking care of the house

  • Labeled as dramatic or a cry baby, having your story dismissed, or being compared to others

  • People making fun of you in ways that was cruel or relentless, including adults like a caregiver or teacher

  • Being exposed to adult money or mental health problems without explanation or support

  • Witnessing constant fighting or being aggressive at home, feeling like you had nowhere safe to go

  • Not having your basic needs met, like healthy food, comfort items, or guidance in life, and being expected to just manage

  • Being blamed, punished, or shamed for things you couldn’t control, like accidents or family problems

  • Unpredictable parents who were one day loving and attentive, the next day angry, absent, and critical, so you never knew what to expect

YOUR PAST DOES NOT DEFINE WHO YOU ARE…

WE’LL FACE THE TRAUMA TOGETHER AND RECLAIM THE PARTS OF YOU THAT WERE LEFT BEHIND.

How I can help

I work with you to untangle the ways trauma has shaped your experiences, patterns, and relationships without judgment, and at your pace. Using Brainspotting and somatic approaches, we will figure out what is keeping you stuck in your life, so that you can reprocess in a sustainable way.

Together, we will…

  • Work through emotional, relational, and behavioral cycles that keep you feeling on edge or disconnected.

  • Strengthen your nervous system’s capacity to tolerate stress and reclaim a sense of calm and agency.

  • Learn to express yourself authentically and navigate relationships without fear or people-pleasing.

  • Explore how your neurodivergence, queerness, and personal history interact with trauma, so you can step fully into your authentic self.

  • Using feedback-informed and measurement-based care, we stay aligned with what matters most to you and keep an eye on your growth along the way so that we can acknowledge and celebrate important wins.
