Somatic Experiencing (SE) Therapy is a gentle, body-oriented approach to healing trauma and stress-related conditions, developed by Dr. Peter Levine. Rooted in the understanding that trauma is stored not just in the mind but in the body, SE helps you release trapped energy and restore balance to your nervous system. By tuning into physical sensations—such as tightness, trembling, or warmth—rather than solely relying on verbal processing, this therapy fosters a safe space to renegotiate past experiences. It emphasizes self-regulation, resilience, and the body’s natural capacity to heal, making it effective for PTSD, anxiety, and chronic stress.
Attachment Therapy is a compassionate, relational approach designed to heal emotional wounds stemming from early attachment disruptions, such as neglect, abandonment, or inconsistent caregiving. Rooted in the understanding that secure bonds shape our sense of safety and self-worth, this therapy helps you explore and repair those foundational relationships, whether from childhood or adulthood. By fostering a safe therapeutic connection, I guide you to process unresolved pain, rebuild trust, and develop healthier patterns of relating—to yourself and others. Techniques like Family Systems Counseling, Internal Relationship Focusing, and Circle of Security are woven in to support emotional regulation and resilience. Effective for trauma, anxiety, and relational challenges, Attachment Therapy empowers you to create lasting, secure connections.
As your therapist, I’m committed to walking with you through your healing with compassion and expertise. My practice is rooted in Trauma Restorative Care™, a strengths-based, trauma-informed approach that honors your resilience and unique story. These resources reflect how I work—focusing on safety, empowerment, and holistic growth. Explore them at your own pace, and I’m here to support you further in our sessions.
