Maybe your heart races for no clear reason. Or you freeze in moments that don’t seem like a big deal to others. You keep pushing through, showing up, doing all the “right” things—but it’s exhausting.

If you’re carrying the weight of painful past experiences, it makes sense that your body and mind are still reacting. Whether you’ve faced childhood wounds, discrimination, emotionally abusive relationships, or have always felt like “too much” or “not enough,” that pain doesn't just go away because time passes.

But healing is possible. And you don’t have to figure it out alone.

In our work together, we’ll go beyond just talking about what’s wrong. I use EMDR therapy, a powerful, evidence-based approach that helps your nervous system actually release what’s been stuck. You don’t have to relive the past—but we will gently process the parts of it that are still affecting you now.

You might notice changes like:

Less spiraling or shutdown when you get overwhelmed

Feeling safer in your own body

Fewer flashbacks or intrusive memories

Being able to say no without guilt

Finally believing that you are enough

This isn’t about “fixing” you. It’s about reconnecting with who you’ve always been, underneath the layers of pain and survival.
