Introduction

Do you carry the invisible weight of early adversity— emotional neglect, fear, or inconsistent caregiving? Inattentive or unpredictable caregivers can leave deep imprints on your relationships with yourself and others. You may learn to hide feelings and needs, or show only “acceptable” parts of yourself. If you were raised by “scaregivers”—frightened or frightening parent figures— you may have developed survival-based attachment patterns that carry into adulthood and limit your ability to show up as your whole self. Healing begins by rewriting those early templates, welcoming authenticity and self- compassion. You can live life fully. In therapy, you can learn to manage and mitigate the symptoms that interfere with your daily life—intrusive thoughts, flashbacks, dissociation, self-sabotaging behaviors, mood swings, intense emotions, or a compromised sense of self. Together, we can your relationship templates, heal attachment wounds, and cultivate compassion for every part of you. We will collaborate, working towards your feeling safe, curious, and connected—to your story, your body, and your inner strength. Healing begins with safety and compassion. Trauma-informed care, neurofeedback, somatic approaches, and other tools support lasting, meaningful change. Foster self-compassion. Your past does not need to dictate your future.
