Therapy for emotional depth and clarity

Trauma and CPTSD can affect how you see yourself, relate to others, and move through the world. You may notice patterns like emotional reactivity, shutdown, difficulty with trust or closeness, feeling constantly on edge, or being pulled back into past experiences even when you logically know you are safe.

Complex trauma often develops over time through experiences such as emotional neglect, attachment wounds, relational trauma, bullying, or growing up in unpredictable environments. In therapy, we focus on calming the nervous system, processing trauma, and addressing the patterns that keep you stuck, using approaches like EMDR, somatic therapy, and parts work at a pace that feels manageable.

Trauma therapy is not about reliving the past or pushing yourself faster than you're ready for. We work carefully and collaboratively, with attention to safety, pacing, and choice, so the process feels contained rather than overwhelming. Over time, this can reduce emotional intensity, increase stability, and support more ease in relationships and daily life.

Neurodivergence can show up as difficulty with focus, overwhelm, sensory sensitivity, burnout, or feeling exhausted by expectations that don&apost match how your brain works. Many autistic and ADHD adults, especially women and those diagnosed later in life, have spent years masking, being misunderstood, or being told to “try harder,” which can lead to shame, self-criticism, and chronic stress.

Therapy focuses on understanding how your brain and nervous system work, unlearning rigid expectations, and reducing the impact of masking and burnout. Treatment is individualized and may include support with emotional regulation, executive functioning, self-compassion, and building strategies that actually fit your life rather than forcing yourself into systems that don't.

If you already know, or are exploring whether you might be neurodivergent, this process isn't about fitting into a label. It's about gaining clarity, understanding long-standing patterns, and learning how to support yourself in ways that feel sustainable and authentic. works.

Borderline Personality Disorder can involve emotional intensity, rapid shifts in mood, and difficulty feeling steady in relationships or day-to-day life. You may notice strong reactions to situations or interactions, a fear of abandonment, or feeling unsure of who you are beneath the emotions. These patterns can be exhausting and hard to manage, especially when others don't fully understand what you're experiencing.

BPD does not look the same for everyone, and many people don't fit the stereotypes often associated with the diagnosis. Past trauma, attachment wounds, and chronic invalidation often play a role, and many people with BPD have been misunderstood or misdiagnosed along the way.

In therapy, we work collaboratively to build emotional regulation skills, strengthen relationships, and understand the patterns that developed to help you cope. Treatment is structured and paced intentionally, combining skills-based support with deeper work when appropriate. Over time, this can support greater stability, clarity, and a stronger sense of self.

Anxiety can show up as constant mental noise, physical tension, avoidance, or a sense of always being on edge, even when there's no clear threat. For some people it stays in the background, while for others it comes in waves of panic that feel overwhelming and hard to control. Over time, anxiety can begin to shape daily choices, relationships, and how safe you feel in your own body.

While anxiety is a common human experience, it can become problematic when it starts limiting your life or keeping you stuck in survival mode. Past stress, trauma, and nervous system sensitivity often play a role, especially when anxiety has been present for a long time or feels difficult to explain.

In therapy, we focus on improving regulation, reducing reactivity, and changing how you relate to anxious thoughts and sensations. Treatment may include practical skills for managing anxiety and panic, along with deeper work to address the patterns that keep anxiety going. The goal is not to eliminate anxiety entirely, but to help you feel more grounded, flexible, and in control over time.
