In my therapy practice, I often see clients who aren’t coming in because of a big, dramatic life event. Instead, they’re feeling stuck, anxious, or disconnected—and it’s only through gentle exploration that we uncover old wounds that never really healed.

Trauma isn’t just what happens to us—it’s also what happens inside us when we go through something painful, confusing, or overwhelming and don’t have the tools, support, or space to process it.
