Hi there, I'm Christy!
I specialize in helping people heal from past painful experiences and trauma, especially childhood and relational trauma. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, talk therapy, and body-based techniques from somatic therapy. I pay special attention to how the nervous system and fight/flight response impact behavior and quality of life.
My focus
I typically work with clients who have past painful experiences or trauma in their childhood or primary relationships and who would like to understand how those experiences impact them in the present.
My approach
My approach centers on the mind-body connection and how the nervous system becomes chronically dysregulated through repeated traumatic experiences. I focus on self-compassion and exploration to find tools that help relieve symptoms like difficulty sleeping, low self-esteem, and mood changes.
