Finding The Right Fit

Is This For You?

Deep trauma work requires readiness and stability. Let's explore together if this approach aligns with where you are on your healing journey.

You're Ready For This If...

  • You've done therapy before and are ready for deeper work.
  • You have stable housing and financial foundation.
  • You feel 'stuck' despite having coping tools.
  • You want to move beyond talk therapy into deep processing.
  • You're committed to showing up for yourself.
  • You sense there's more healing available to you.

This May Not Be the Best Fit If...

  • You're currently in an active crisis requiring stabilization.
  • You're in need of primary treatment for an active eating disorder.
  • You're experiencing active substance abuse without a primary therapist.
  • You're seeking short-term, solution-focused therapy.
  • You're looking for a purely cognitive or behavioral approach.

If any of these apply, I'm happy to help connect you with resources better suited to your current needs.
