Trauma & Emotional Safety
Healing Doesn't Have to Be Rushed
Trauma doesn’t always look like one big event. Sometimes it’s what didn’t happen— emotional neglect, chronic stress, disconnection. I work with clients who feel shut down, stuck, or overwhelmed by their past, but aren’t sure where to begin.
In our work together, you’ll never be pushed to “go deeper” before you’re ready. We move at your pace, with your nervous system as our guide.
What Trauma Can Look Like
-
Chronic freeze or shutdown responses
-
Difficulty trusting others or expressing needs
-
People-pleasing and hypervigilance
-
Feeling like you’re “too sensitive” or “too much”
-
Big reactions to small triggers—or feeling numb
How I Work with Trauma
​
-
Body-informed (nervous system language, grounding, titration)
-
Attachment-based (we explore relationships, safety, and connection)
-
Resourcing before revisiting hard material
-
Optional integrations from Internal Family Systems (IFS) and somatic practices
-
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
