Traumatic experiences impact the mind, body, and spirit

Clients often come to me after recent or lifelong experiences of:

• Emotional Neglect or Abuse: Experiences growing up in environments where feelings and internal experiences weren’t seen, heard, or valued

• Relational Trauma: Ongoing betrayal, abandonment, or violation in close relationships throughout the lifespan that have made it difficult maintain self-compassion and loving relationships with others

• Narcissistic Abuse: Family or romantic experiences with cycles of love-bombing, gaslighting, and ultimately being emotionally discarded

• Developmental and Attachment Wounds: Painful early caregiving experiences that left lasting impacts on self-worth and trust

• Dissociation: Feeling emotionally numb or disconnected from your body, emotions, or sense of self

• Chronic Shame and Self-Blame: Internal narratives that make it hard to feel worthy, lovable, or safe

• Hypervigilance and Emotional Reactivity: Feeling constantly on guard, easily triggered, or overwhelmed by everyday stressors

Healing from complex trauma takes time, and you don’t have to do it alone.

In our work together, you can expect a thoughtful, individualized approach that includes:

• Relational depth and insight: Rooted in psychodynamic, attachment-based, and systemic principles, we’ll explore how early relationships and broader systems have shaped how you see yourself and how you relate to others.

• Integration of evidence-based tools: I draw from modalities like DBT, parts work, and somatic techniques to support emotion regulation, nervous system safety, and meaningful change.

• Grounded in your lived context: Trauma doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Race, gender, sexuality, class, ability, and immigration experiences all shape how safety and harm have been felt and how healing unfolds. These dimensions are woven into the work from the start.
