Real Trauma Recovery: Beyond Talk Therapy

If you’ve lived through trauma, you already know it doesn’t just live in your memories—it lives in your body. You might feel stuck in patterns you can’t explain, overwhelmed by emotions, or disconnected from life. Talking about it helps, but sometimes relief doesn’t come. That’s not because you’re broken—trauma runs deeper than words.

Talk therapy, while valuable, often can’t reach where trauma hides. It’s stored in your nervous system, muscles, and reactions. Healing requires more than insight—it needs approaches that help your body release what it’s been holding.

That’s where my work comes in.

I use EMDR, Polyvagal-informed therapy, and Brainspotting—methods that meet trauma where it lives. These techniques help calm the body, shift stuck patterns, and restore your capacity to thrive. You don’t have to keep managing symptoms rooted in old pain. There’s a way through—and you don’t have to do it alone.

Talk can only take you so far—your body holds the rest.

Trauma doesn’t just live in your memories; it lives in your nervous system. That’s why talk therapy alone often can’t reach the root. EMDR, Brainspotting, and Polyvagal-informed methods help your brain and body release what words can’t—so you can finally feel safe, calm, and free.

If this message resonates with you, I invite you to take the next step toward healing.
