Compassionate, comforting therapy for adults healing from childhood trauma, people-pleasing & perfectionism.

Have you spent years trying to heal from your past, climbing a mountain that never seems to get any easier?

Maybe you’ve tried weekly therapy, self-help, or different coping strategies, but the same patterns keep showing up—hypervigilance, anxiety, people-pleasing, and emotional overwhelm or shut-down.​

Those patterns feel like chains, keeping you trapped in fear, shame & self-doubt.

It's left you....
  • Feeling anxious or on edge, even in safe situations

  • Second-guessing yourself and your decisions constantly

  • Struggling to speak up or set boundaries with others

  • Carrying guilt or shame for prioritizing your own needs

  • Feeling disconnected from your feelings, desires, or sense of self

  • Over-accommodating in relationships, even when it hurts you

  • Experiencing frustration, resentment, or exhaustion from repeating old patterns

  • Longing for relationships that feel balanced, authentic, and supportive

  • Worrying about conflict or rejection, and avoiding it at all costs

What you're going through is not your imagination.

The weight you carry—the hopelessness, the fear of rejection, the flood of overwhelming emotions or the urge to shut them down—is real. You might find yourself second-guessing every move, having a hard time trusting others—or even your own instincts—and feeling stuck in a fog of numbness or emotional distance that makes everything hard to sort out.

​

You're lugging around guilt, shame, and embarrassment like a heavy backpack, listening to an inner critic that never quiets, and facing towering walls of anger and pain, every day.

 

Fear pushes you into people-pleasing just to keep things calm, or spark racing thoughts and panic that make even small steps feel overwhelming.

But there’s more to life than the way it feels right now.

​

The heaviness, the fear, the overwhelm—they don’t define your future. With support, understanding, and the right tools, it’s possible to take small steps that slowly lighten the load, reclaim your voice, and move toward a life that feels meaningful, safe, and true to who you really are.

Hi, I’m Jen!

Here, you can pause, breathe, and begin to heal.

I help people heal from trauma that isn’t always visible—like the lasting effects of childhood abuse, neglect, emotional abandonment, or repeated betrayal—experiences that are often hard to put into words. This kind of pain often comes from trusting people who were supposed to be safe and loving—parents, guardians, or family members —only to be met with harm, disappointment, or abandonment at their hands. These experiences often leave you feeling stuck, powerless, and overwhelmed by emotions that are difficult to understand or express.

​

Let me be clear. You are not broken or damaged beyond repair.

 

What you’re experiencing is a response to past experiences, and that’s okay. Together, we can explore these feelings, create understanding, and find ways to bring relief.

 

I’m here to help you reclaim your body, your emotions, and your life, so you can move forward with more clarity, strength, and self-compassion.

Specialized support that meets you where you're at.

No matter what you’re facing—childhood trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, or chronic illness—you deserve support that meets you exactly where you are.

 

This work is about honoring your experiences, moving at your pace, and giving you the tools to break old patterns, trust yourself, and show up in your life and relationships in a way that feels authentic and sustainable.
