You feel stuck in old patterns
Even when you understand the pattern intellectually, it can still feel hard to respond differently in the moment.
Support for anxiety, shutdown, people-pleasing, numbness, emotional flashbacks, and old experiences that still shape the present.
Trauma can show up as anxiety, numbness, overthinking, trouble trusting people, difficulty resting, intense shame, perfectionism, or feeling like you are always bracing for something.
Therapy can help you understand these patterns without blaming yourself. We work with both insight and the body’s protective responses, making space for steadiness, choice, and a more compassionate relationship with yourself.
You do not need to have a single “big” traumatic event to seek trauma-informed therapy. Chronic stress, relational wounds, family dynamics, identity-based harm, grief, and long periods of not feeling safe can all leave imprints.
I am currently training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) with Deany Laliotis, LICSW, at the Center for Excellence in EMDR Therapy. I’m really enjoying the rapid changes it can provide for clients, and we can explore together whether it makes sense for you.
Even when you understand the pattern intellectually, it can still feel hard to respond differently in the moment.
Trauma can make people feel flooded, numb, disconnected, or unsure how to trust what they feel.
We can move carefully while still doing real work toward change.
