Feeling Overwhelmed? You’re Not Alone
A Gentle Path to Healing for Individuals and Couples
Available Virtually in Oregon and California
You’ve worked hard to get here.
You are accomplished, strong, and capable, and have met the goals you’ve set for yourself.
Everyone around you agrees you’ve built an enviable life that you should be proud of.
From the outside, it seems like you have it all together. But they don’t see the whole picture.
The past is still with you.
No one knows about the long sleepless nights or the vivid flashbacks of what happened to you.
People can’t see the panic that grips you without warning, sending your mind and body reeling.
And they’d never guess that you live in constant fear of the next unpredictable trigger.
It affects all your relationships.
You find it difficult to ever let your guard down fully, or you find yourself trusting others too soon.
As a result, you have a pattern of difficult relationships that leaves you feeling unlovable.
People want to understand, but you simply feel exhausted and misunderstood.
Something has to change.
Trauma doesn’t disappear on its own – it affects your thoughts, relationships, and self-worth.
Ignoring these issues will only lead to increased anxiety, emotional exhaustion, and isolation.
But, deep down, you know that you deserve more than this.
There is a better way.
Envision a space designed for healing, where you can progress
at your own pace, free from judgment.
My online practice prioritizes your privacy and unique journey, helping
you move from surviving to thriving with compassion.
Your transformation begins with a gentle step, and that’s where I come in.
