Trauma counseling
Rebuilding safety, one steady conversation at a time
Trauma doesn’t respond to quick fixes. The work is careful, paced, and collaborative—so your nervous system has space to breathe again.
How we work
We start by understanding how trauma shows up for you—and how it intersects with relationships, health, and daily rhythms. From there, we draw on modalities that help your body and mind process what happened without rushing or retraumatizing.
Therapeutic tools
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Identifies and reshapes thought patterns connected to trauma so you can respond differently in the present.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
Helps your brain process traumatic memories so their emotional charge no longer feels overwhelming.
Somatic techniques
Reconnects mind and body through grounding, breath, and sensory awareness to release tension stored in the nervous system.
Parts-informed work
Invites all parts of you—including the protective ones—into the conversation so healing sticks.
Common focus areas
Addiction treatment
Recovery that honors the story underneath the substance
Addiction rarely exists on its own. We look at trauma, habits, relationships, and nervous system regulation so you’re not fighting the same battles without new support.
Treatment approaches
Motivational interviewing
Builds readiness for change without judgment, meeting you exactly where you are.
CBT for substance use
Uncovers the thoughts, emotions, and habits that keep the cycle going—and replaces them with practical tools.
Relapse prevention planning
Creates a personalized roadmap for staying grounded when cravings or stress hit.
Dual-diagnosis support
Addresses co-occurring mental health concerns so recovery isn’t happening in isolation.
Support often includes
- Alcohol, opioid, and stimulant use disorders
- Prescription medication misuse
- Early recovery stabilization
- Relapse prevention and long-term maintenance
- Family support and communication
Lived experience in addiction work
I earned a master’s degree in addiction counseling after seeing firsthand how trauma and substance use intersect. My background includes facilitating IOP groups, providing family support, and helping adolescents and adults navigate the messy middle of recovery. Expect accountability, compassion, and practical tools in every session.
Additional ways we can work together

What working together looks like

Collaborative plan
Together we sketch a plan that aligns with your goals, pace, and capacity. It’s flexible by design—we adapt as you grow.
Steady support
