PTSD & Complex PTSD
Healing from the inside out
PTSD
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event, leaving lasting emotional, psychological, and physical effects. You might feel on edge, easily triggered, disconnected, or stuck in painful memories that won’t seem to fade. PTSD isn’t just about what happened — it’s about how it continues to impact your daily life, relationships, and sense of safety. I offer evidence-based, compassionate support to help you process trauma, regulate your nervous system, and reclaim a sense of peace and control. Healing is possible — even if it hasn’t felt that way in a long time.
Complex PTSD
Complex PTSD (C-PTSD) can develop from ongoing or repeated trauma, often in relationships where there was no escape — such as childhood abuse, neglect, or emotionally unsafe environments. Unlike single-incident PTSD, C-PTSD often includes deep-rooted shame, chronic anxiety, emotional dysregulation, and difficulties with trust and identity. You may feel “too much” or “never enough,” stuck in patterns that are hard to break. Therapy can help you untangle these layers, build self-compassion, and reconnect with your sense of self. Healing from complex trauma takes time, but you don’t have to do it alone.
Accelerated Resolution
Therapy
​
Accelerated Resolution Therapy, or ART, is a short-term therapy that helps you feel better fast—often in just a few sessions. It uses eye movements and visualization to help your brain store upsetting memories in a new, less painful way. You don’t have to retell all the details of what happened. It’s a gentle but powerful approach that can help with anxiety, trauma, and other things that keep you feeling stuck.
Trauma Treatments
​Parts work can help individuals understand and heal the wounded parts of themselves by fostering internal compassion and connection.
​
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) brings structure by identifying the unhelpful thought patterns that often drive anxiety, shame, or avoidance. Together, these approaches create a powerful path to help people process trauma, build emotional resilience, and feel more integrated and in control of their lives.
Self-compassion is a powerful tool in treating PTSD and Complex PTSD. It helps reduce shame and self-criticism, allowing clients to respond to their pain with kindness. This practice supports emotional regulation, builds self-worth, and promotes healing from trauma.
