Navigating trauma is complicated. Navigating trauma, triggers, and the daily stressors of life with a partner is downright difficult.

I work with you to navigate trauma to address this because I truly believe that you deserve to live a life not defined by the worst parts of it.

I work with you to re-tell your story in ways that is empowering. I know. It sounds impossible right now, but I promise we can get there. I work with you to help re-write these beliefs and remind you of where you are and where you’ve come from (listen, if you are seeking out therapy you’ve already come such a long way). I also utilize some approaches (insert gibberish therapy terms) to address physical manifestations of trauma including difficulty sleeping, nightmares, and physical pain.

Trauma feels even bigger when you are in a relationship. It can be so difficult communicating needs, triggers, and emotions to our partner, especially when we have a history of people not caring about these things. Sometimes we end up in a negative cycle we can’t get out of. I work with you and your partner to navigate the hardest stuff and go deeper in understanding of each other in order to show up with love, compassion, and a dynamic that works for you.
