Together we will get clear on what happened, and on how it is affecting you now. We will slowly heal the trauma so that you can discern what is an emotional flashback from the past, and what is something that you need to act on in the present.
You will be able to feel safe in the present, and enjoy your life more.
I use a holistic approach to heal your mind, body, heart, and spirit. Depending on your needs and preferences, I could help you use a guided imagery protocol to rework trauma memories and rewire your brain, practice self-compassion, set boundaries in relationships, get in touch with your life-affirming impulses for self protection, restore resilience and joy, and much more.
Part of the injury of trauma can include reaching the conclusion that there is something wrong with you, that you don't deserve help, and that other people aren't dependable or don't care anyway.
Together we can undo that experience. I am interactive and warm in my approach, and I truly believe that you deserve help.
