Complex Trauma Recovery

You don't need a dramatic origin story to deserve support. If it's still affecting you, it counts.

Complex trauma doesn't always come from a single event. Sometimes it's the accumulation of years — growing up in a home where your feelings weren't safe, being in a relationship where you lost yourself, navigating systems that didn't protect you. The effects show up everywhere: in your relationships, your body, your sense of who you are.

I work with complex trauma using IFS (Internal Family Systems), Brainspotting, and somatic approaches. These modalities go beyond talk therapy to reach the places where trauma is stored — in the body, in the nervous system, in the parts of you that learned to protect you long before you had words for what was happening.

We go at your pace. Trauma work doesn't mean reliving everything — it means building enough safety and capacity to process what's been stuck. I use a combination of:

• IFS (Parts Work) — Getting to know the protective parts that developed in response to trauma
• Brainspotting — Accessing and processing trauma held in the brain and body
• Somatic awareness — Reconnecting with your body's signals and wisdom
