You don’t just “get over” trauma. You learn to live through it, reclaim your truth, and reconnect with yourself.

As a trauma therapist, I believe that integrity matters—and that includes having lived experience, not just clinical training. When I say “I get it,” I mean it. I’ve personally navigated the tangled emotions, the desperate numbing, the mental contortions to keep others happy, and the crushing shame that can follow years of emotional or relational abuse.

I also understand trauma as a somatic experience—not just emotional or cognitive, but deeply physical. The heavy fog of depression, the trembling edge of anxiety, the searing heat of shame and anger, the aching hollow of believing nothing will ever change—these are things I know from the inside out.

And I know the ways we learn to gaslight ourselves into believing we must earn our worth or prove our value just to belong.

That’s why my work is about helping you reconnect to you. I offer integrative, holistic, and somatic therapies to support you in feeling safer in your body, more grounded in your truth, and more empowered in your life. Together, we’ll create a space where you can gently unlearn old survival strategies, grow your self-trust, and begin to live more bravely and authentically.

Healing is hard—but it’s possible. You don’t have to do it alone.
