let your journey to Self begin
Trauma therapy in Chesterfield, VA
supporting unresolved trauma | grief | attachment | perimenopause + menopause identity shifts and anxiety through IFS and mind-body therapy
Has traditional talk therapy not quite helped?
Learned coping skills and ways to manage symptoms, yet still feel stuck?
I work with adults ready to move beyond symptom management, into deeper healing. My focus is on helping you gently access and heal the root wounds that continue to impact your life around trauma, grief and attachment wounds. My work is grounded in Internal Family Systems (IFS) + compassion-based work. Together, we create space for curiosity, safety, and a deeper connection to Self. I believe our experiences are held in the body. These experiences shape how we relate to the world, and how deeply we trust our inner voice.
We’ll take a mind-body approach, exploring how your internal system learned to protect you. With IFS, we’ll gently get to know the parts of you that have been working so hard to keep you safe. We’ll carefully approach and reprocess painful memories in a way that feels safe, helping reduce their emotional charge and release the burdens they carry. If and/or when your system may allow, we will also incorporate EMDR into our IFS treatment as a tool to further support your system’s growth.
If you’re feeling stuck in traditional talk therapy and ready for deeper healing, you’re in the right place. I specialize in supporting adults—especially women in perimenopause and menopause—who are navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, and relationship challenges and want more than just coping skills, let’s connect!
