Complex PTSD & Childhood Trauma Counseling
Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, or shame rooted in past experiences? Are relationships challenging for you? Bringing up fear of abandonment or losing yourself? Do you struggle with boundaries, people pleasing, or mistrust? Maybe you are hard on yourself, and have an inner critic that just won’t rest. Perhaps you struggle with self esteem, self worth, or self-confidence? Maybe emotions are overwhelming and a current situation or a past painful memory can leave you feeling flooded. Or possibly you struggle to feel in general, and numbness and dissociation are more familiar.
When we experience complex trauma or childhood trauma it can impact us in so many areas of life. From our relationships with others, how we feel about ourselves, and how we experience our emotions and the world around us.
Maybe you would like to imagine a life where the past does not weigh so heavily on you and you feel a greater sense of peace. An existence where anxiety, depression, and shame don’t run your day-to-day. Perhaps you would like to feel a greater sense of ease, connection, and security in your relationships. You’d like to have a kinder relationship with yourself, one where you really feel like your own friend. Maybe you’d like to feel your emotions and know how to work with them as they come and go.
If any of this sounds like something you’d like to work on – I’d love to help you.
Hey there, I’m Rose. I help folks work through complex PTSD / childhood trauma and reconnect with themselves. I get it, trauma has a way of seeping into everything and can leave us feeling disconnected. It can be overwhelming to know where to begin to heal.
Trauma healing looks a little different for each person & has some similar threads. A few of the common elements I help people with include:
- reconnecting with your body, emotions, & needs
- exploring attachment and relationship patterns
- processing past painful experiences
- forming relationships with different parts of yourself
