I specialize in supporting people who are living with the complex toll that trauma, chronic illness and chronic pain take on the mind, body, and spirit. In addition to medical trauma, I also work with the lasting impact of complex, relational and attachment-based trauma, which shape how we experience safety, connection, and our sense of self in the world. Whether you're dealing with the invisible weight of a diagnosis, the grief of a life disrupted, or the pressure to push through pain, you're not alone, and I can help. My approach as an EMDR and somatic therapist is relational and grounded in the belief that healing happens not just through symptom relief, but through embodied presence and gentle rewiring. Together, we can explore stuck patterns, reprocess pain at its roots, and gently rebuild your connection to safety and hope.
More About KristinThe symptoms of complex trauma and chronic illness often carry stories the body hasn’t yet had a safe place to tell. In my somatic sessions, I use a body-based approach to create a space where those stories can emerge safely and creatively, when words alone don’t reach deep enough. I also incorporate the healing language of symbol and expressive arts to gently invite the unconscious into awareness, opening new pathways to insight and integration.
View MoreEye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is widely researched and evidence-based therapy that offers a structured and deeply healing way to process traumatic experiences and memories. Through bilateral stimulation, EMDR helps to reprocess trauma that may be impacting the nervous system and manifesting as chronic illness, pain and other symptoms. This process can reduce emotional and physical distress, shift limiting beliefs, and bring relief.
