Treatment for C-PTSD & Childhood Trauma
Be seen. Be heard. Be supported.
The problems you had as a child don’t have to be with you for the rest of your life.
You know the things troubling you today started when you were a kid. Absent or abusive family, other kids who harassed or assaulted you, harsh coaches or teachers… They left a mark.
You feel bad about yourself. Your feelings are out of control, or you’re avoiding your feelings entirely. You see yourself as broken and alone.
Maybe you got therapy before, or spent countless hours on self-help books. They might have helped, but you’re still struggling.
You’re tired of feeling like you’ll never be healed.
You throw yourself into work as a way of proving yourself, and it drains you. You burn out, but don’t know how to do anything different.
You’re not the parent you want to be. You still can’t keep yourself from yelling or shutting down and separating from your kids.
You have trouble connecting to other people because you don’t trust them, are afraid of being rejected, or don’t want to “be a burden.”
Your health is suffering. You’re tense or on edge all the time. You live in extremes: can’t sleep or sleep too much, starve your body or binge. You have chronic illnesses, especially autoimmune disorders or stomach-related problems.

Common questions about childhood trauma
-
There is no such thing as “not bad enough.” If what happened still bothers you or negatively affects your life, you deserve to heal from it. We don’t get to decide what traumatizes us. Our brains and bodies react on an instinctive level, and we get stuck in that reaction. What triggers that reaction is different for each person, and is influenced by a wide variety of things.
-
The types of therapy that I offer don’t require that you remember what happened for you to go through the healing process. Even if we can’t get to a memory of something, our body and brain still know it happened. There are ways to work through and heal that.
-
Many important developmental things happen throughout our childhoods, and those things lay the foundation for the rest of our lives. Research has shown that childhood stress affects not only our mental health, but our physical health, as well. It may be affecting you in ways you haven’t connected to what happened in your childhood. In healing those childhood wounds now, you can improve your mental and physical well-being for the rest of your life.
