Therapy for Complex Trauma & Dissociation
Sometimes, experiences from our past continue to affect us in ways that are difficult to understand. You may feel overwhelmed by emotions, disconnected from yourself, or find that certain memories and experiences continue to affect your relationships and sense of safety.
If you have experienced complex trauma, you may struggle with shame, self-doubt, emotional overwhelm, or dissociation. You may also notice conflicting feelings or different parts of yourself responding to situations in ways that feel confusing.
Compassionate and trauma-informed support is available for individuals navigating complex trauma, C-PTSD, and dissociation. My work draws on years of experience with complex trauma and training in EMDR Therapy, Ego State Therapy through Developmental Needs Meeting Strategy, and Structural Dissociation Theory.
