Trauma & Chronic Stress
Heal past wounds with proven, gentle methods.
Signs you might relate:
You feel "on edge" much of the time, even when things are going well
Certain situations trigger intense reactions that feel out of proportion
You have trouble trusting your own perceptions or decisions
Sleep is difficult—either falling asleep or staying asleep
You find yourself avoiding people, places, or activities without clear reasons
How therapy helps:
Trauma isn't always about major events—it can come from ongoing stress, neglect, or invalidation that built up over time. Your nervous system learned to stay alert to keep you safe, but now that hypervigilance might be interfering with the life you want.
Using trauma-informed approaches, we'll work at your pace to help your system feel safer. This means building emotional regulation skills first, then gradually processing difficult experiences in a way that doesn't overwhelm you.
What you might notice:
Feeling more settled in your own body
Triggers becoming less intense and less frequent
More trust in your instincts and boundaries
Relationships that feel safer and more genuine
