Trauma and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

When the past won't stay in the past.

Turns out, just get over it isn't a treatment plan. Trauma isn't a character flaw or a lack of willpower. It's your brain doing its best with old information. Using evidence-based approaches, we'll work on updating that system so the past isn't running the meeting every time. No magic wands, just solid science, a little humor, and a lot of compassion.

KEY TOOLS WE USE

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)

A highly effective, brain-friendly method that helps uncouple intense emotional reactions from traumatic memories so they lose their power.

Trauma-informed CBT and skills training

Practical strategies to manage flashbacks, anxiety, and hypervigilance.

IFS (Internal Family Systems)

Helping different parts of self get on the same page.

Somatic and grounding techniques

Tending to the body's memory of distress to restore calm and presence.

Stabilization and pacing

Safety, regulation, and consent come first.

Whether you're dealing with single-incident trauma, complex or developmental trauma, or lingering effects of past events, we tailor treatment to your needs and pace. Expect honesty, compassion, a little levity where appropriate, and a commitment to helping you feel less triggered and more alive.

Perinatal Mental Health

Pregnant, postpartum, or knee-deep in the glorious chaos of early parenthood? Welcome to your survival squad. I specialize in perinatal mental health—helping people through anxiety, low mood, birth-related stress, sleep-deprived fog, and those weird identity-shifts that come with becoming a parent (or trying to be one).

Sessions are warm, nonjudgmental, and delightfully practical. Think: untangling sticky thoughts so they stop running the show, building tiny survival tools that actually work between diaper explosions and 3 a.m. feedings, and crafting a plan that fits your values and your actual sleep schedule. You'll get evidence-based approaches served with a dash of gentle humor, ample validation, and strategies you can use when life is... blurry and covered in spit-up.

Whether you're pregnant, postpartum, navigating infertility, grieving a loss, or adjusting to new family roles, this is a judgment-free place to be honest and human. We'll take small, manageable steps so you feel steadier, a bit more confident, and far less alone—one tiny, triumphant win at a time.

Depression

Think of depression as that uninvited fog that rolls in and insists on rearranging your furniture: the couch (motivation) gets shoved into the kitchen, the lamp (energy) flickers, and the radio (joy) plays a sad song on loop.

It's not just "feeling down" — it can make your favorite things feel flat, your thoughts heavy, and even brushing your teeth feel like a minor Everest.

COMMON SIGNS WE WATCH FOP

Persistent low mood or emptiness

Loss of interest in activities you used to enjoy

Low energy, fatigue, or slowed movements/thinking

Trouble concentrating, remembering, or making decisions

Changes in sleep or appetite

Feelings of worthlessness or excessive guilt

Recurrent thoughts of death or suicide — if this is you, you don't have to sit with it alone. Please reach out to us at (912)-875-2667, or call or text 988 for immediate support any time.

How a specialist helps: A therapist can be your fog-lift technician. We'll help map what's behind the haze, teach practical tools to reclaim small wins, and work with you to brighten routines and rebuild things.

Grief & Loss

Sometimes grief slips in wearing something other than black—a ring that no longer fits, an inbox gone quiet, a home that used to echo with stories, or the empty corner where a partnership once stood. Whether you're grieving a person, a role, a relationship, or the version of yourself you outgrew, therapy offers a gentle, nonjudgmental place to unpack those losses and notice what can still come with you.

Grief doesn't follow a timeline, a checklist, or anyone else's expectations. It has a habit of showing up uninvited and completely ignoring your calendar. Together, we'll make sense of what's happening, find steadier footing, and create space for both remembering what's been lost and continuing to build a life that still feels like yours.
