You may struggle with shame.
You may feel disconnected from parts of your childhood.
You may question your memory — or remember certain details vividly while other pieces feel fragmented.
You may notice patterns in relationships that you don’t fully understand but you know are related to the abuse..

​

Childhood abuse occurs during developmental years, when the brain and nervous system are still forming. 

​

The adaptations you made to SURVIVE — were coping responses at the time. 

​

• Dissociation

• Compliance

• Hypervigilance

• Avoidance

• Self-blame

• Substance Abuse

• Perfectionism

• Problematic Eating

• Isolation —

​

In therapy, we do not rush the past — but we also do not avoid it. 

We approach it carefully, at a tolerable pace, helping you process what happened while strengthening your present-day stability.

​

The GOAL is not to erase your history.
It is to reduce its ongoing impact on how you see yourself and move through the world.
