If you are a Christian woman who feels ready for deeper, focused trauma healing than typical weekly talk therapy can offer, you may want to consider an EMDR-based Therapeutic Intensive with me. I clear my schedule to work with you over the course of one to three days for three to six hours per day on a focus target of your choosing. Intensives are designed to support meaningful change in the way the nervous system feels safest, not rushed into an hour here and there. Ready for deeper healing?

If you are tired of beating yourself up inside for trying harder and harder to make traction toward your emotional and mental freedom but feel like you are simply going in circles and feeling defeated, you may be asking yourself, "What is Wrong with Me?"

However, the problem isn't you! The problem is that you are asking yourself the wrong question, and assuming that the problem is somehow you. This leads to shame, frustration, and hamster wheel running that keeps you from making traction toward your healing. To heal, you need to ask a different question, and I'll tell you what that is in this episode. Listen in!

If slowing down makes you feel more anxious instead of calm, this episode explains why. You'll learn how trauma trains the nervous system to equate safety with staying busy, in control, or on guard - and why true safety isn't something you need to seek after, but something your body experiences.

In this episode, we explore how to orient your nervous system to the present moment, why rest can feel unsafe after trauma, and how a felt sense of safety allows real healing to begin. This gentle, faith-integrated conversation helps you understand why your body struggles to relax -- and what it actually needs instead.

Feeling stuck doesn't mean your faith is weak. It means your nervous system is likely carrying familiar survival responses that are getting in the way of your healing in a different way than you might think. P.S. There is nothing "wrong" with you. You are not the problem.
