When healing from any kind of complex or relational trauma, learning or relearning the dynamics of a safe, supportive and healthy relationship, re-establishing central nervous system regulation, and reconnecting with ourselves on a deep level are often important milestones in our journey. As a Certified Trauma Recovery Coach, I hold a safe space for you to pursue the work of healing in a non-judgmental, compassion-filled setting that’s specifically tailored to your recovery needs and goals. I’ll always pace myself after you. You no longer have to do this alone.

Trauma Recovery Coaching is a client-led modality. This means that you will never be asked to discuss things with me that you are not comfortable or ready going into. Talking about traumatic content is not the only way to recover from trauma and for many survivors of complex trauma, it may not even be the best or safest way. As a holistic coach, I am trained and certified in various evidence-based body-mind modalities, so our work together is always trauma-responsive and gentle to your nervous system. You are in the driver’s seat at all times.

Many of us arrive to Trauma Recovery Coaching after having seemingly tried it all. We may have experimented with alternative remedies. Yet when it comes to my clients’ trauma recovery, their safety is my priority, and time is of the essence, so everything I do and every certification I hold is backed by sound scientific research. Go to the Science page if you’d like to explore the research behind the modalities I use to support my clients on their recovery journey. Also check out the Recovery page to learn more about the Trauma Recovery Process.

You know how sometimes a part of us wants something, yet another part of us pushes back and we feel stuck (e.g. like healthy eating)? Internal Family Systems (IFS)/Parts-Work-informed coaching helps uncover and gain insights into our conflicting parts so we can establish lines of communication and help resolve what feels stuck. As we learn to notice, listen, and validate (but not necessarily agree with) our various parts, it becomes easier to feel safe and act in alignment with our core values & beliefs, so we can live more freely and authentically.

Emotional Freedom Techniques are a body-mind modality you may have tried for emotional regulation, by finger tapping on acupressure points while focusing on various feeling/sensory cues. Yet for assistance on complex issues, working with a practitioner like me who is trained in EFT’s clinically researched protocols, can greatly support your recovery. In fact, based on the American Medical Association, the American Psychological Association’s standards, and over 100 peer-reviewed scientific papers, including Randomized Controlled Trials, clinical EFT helps alleviate anxiety, PTSD, depression & phobias.
