Your body remembers what your mind tries to forget. Let's work with that, not against it.

Somatic therapy for adults healing from trauma and chronic pain

What This Actually Looks Like

Therapy here isn't just talking about what happened to you. It's noticing what's happening in you—right now.

That tightness in your chest when you think about work. The way your shoulders live up near your ears. The chronic pain your doctor can't explain. The panic that shows up in your body before it shows up in your thoughts.

We work with your nervous system, not just your narrative. Because your body has been trying to tell you something, and it's time to listen.

This Is For You If:

  • Talk therapy helped, but you still feel stuck in unhelpful patterns

  • You have chronic pain that doctors can't fully explain

  • You know intellectually what happened to you, but you still feel anxious/numb/on edge

  • You're tired of white-knuckling through life

  • You want to understand why you react the way you do—and how to change it

This probably isn't for you if:

  • You want someone to tell you what to do

  • You're looking for quick fixes

  • You're not willing to pay attention to what your body is telling you

How We Work

Shame, early attachment wounds, and trauma don't just live in your head. They show up as anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and relationship problems because they're stored in your nervous system.

I use Somatic Experiencing, Brainspotting, Pain Reprocessing Therapy, and Internal Family Systems to help you:

  • Stop fighting your body and start working with it

  • Understand the patterns that aren't serving you anymore

  • Find your way back to feeling safe in your own skin

Not through force. Not through pushing through. But by learning to listen differently.

You're Not Broken

Sometimes traditional talk therapy just doesn't go deep enough. You can understand why you feel the way you do and still be stuck in the same patterns.

Somatic therapy works with your nervous system, the part of you that's been trying to protect you, even when it's making things harder. In session, we create space for all parts of your story. Including the parts that scare you.

You're not alone in this.

Let’s Talk

Starting therapy shouldn't feel intimidating. That's why I offer a free 15-minute consultation; no pressure, no obligation. Just a chance to see if we're a good fit.

If you're ready to try something different, let's start there.

“We commit to our own healing in part because the realization of what we are dreaming of rests on it. It is our responsibility to one another to do our internal work, not so that we feel good alone but to stay an active part of the whole and to refuse to pass down to the next generation what pain we've accrued.”
