Traumatic Stress

You Haven't Been Able to Leave It Behind

Ever since it happened, it seems to be all you can think about. It shows up in your sleep. It replays in your head when you least expect it, and sometimes it feels like it's happening all over again.

The people in your life may think you should be over it by now. But you know it isn't that simple. You're on edge, irritable, and exhausted from working so hard just to get through the day. You're avoiding places, people, and situations that bring it back. You don't feel like yourself anymore.

You're not losing it. What you're experiencing has a name, and it's treatable.

You Don't Have to Keep Living This Way

Trauma therapy gives you a safe, structured space to process what happened at a pace that works for you. I specialize in treating traumatic stress using evidence-based approaches including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), CBT, and exposure-based therapy, along with mindfulness-based techniques that help you slow down, return to the present moment, and work through what gets activated when memories surface. I tailor my approach to what works best for you, drawing on narrative and parts-based work when that's where the healing is.

My goal isn't just to help you cope. It's to help you actually heal, so that what happened no longer holds your life hostage.
