Healing Is Possible
Therapy for Complex Trauma
You’ve survived so much — now it’s time to begin healing.
Many of us have spent years in survival mode — keeping it together on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or numb inside. Ongoing or frequent childhood or relational trauma leaves deep emotional wounds. I understand how this kind of pain can shape how you see yourself, how you trust, and how safe you feel in the world.
What Is Complex Trauma?
Unlike single-event trauma, complex trauma often comes from:
Chronic emotional, physical, or sexual abuse
Growing up in unsafe, unstable, or unpredictable environments
Narcissistic or emotionally unavailable caregivers
Repeated relational betrayals or boundary violations
Ongoing neglect or lack of emotional attunement
As a complex trauma survivor, some maladaptive mechanisms you may have developed include:
Persistent anxiety, hypervigilance, or emotional numbness
Shame, guilt, or a deep sense of “something’s wrong with me”
Difficulty trusting others or maintaining healthy relationships
Dissociation, people-pleasing, or feeling disconnected from yourself
Flashbacks, emotional triggers, or an inner critic that won’t turn off
But surviving is not the same as living. I’m here to help you feel safe in your own body, your own mind, and your own life.
How Therapy Can Help You To
Understand your trauma responses (you’re not “crazy,” you’re adapting)
Identify and work through defenses you’ve built to manage distress
Build tools to regulate your nervous system
Feel more comfortable feeling and expressing your emotions
Cultivate inner safety and self-trust
You Don’t Have to Do This Alone!
Many trauma survivors think, “I should be over this by now.”
But healing from complex trauma isn’t about “getting over it” — it’s about gently reconnecting with the parts of you that had to go quiet just to survive.
You deserve a space where your pain is held with care.
You don’t have to relive everything to heal. Our work will be slow, steady, and always guided by your comfort and readiness.
Let’s begin, together.
