MY STORY
The Woman Behind
Good Girl Trauma
Empathic, edgy, rebellious, confident. She feels deeply, speaks boldly, and doesn't apologize for telling the truth about trauma.
WHAT I BELIEVE
My Core Values
Radical Honesty
I tell the truth about trauma, even when it's uncomfortable. Healing requires us to stop pretending everything is fine.
Body Wisdom
Your body knows what it needs. I'll help you learn to listen to its signals and trust its innate capacity to heal.
Collective Healing
We heal in community. Shame thrives in isolation, but it dissolves when we share our stories with others who understand.
MY APPROACH
Warmth Meets Fire
I gently hold your hand while also telling you, "We're not doing this old pattern anymore." My approach blends:
- Scientific Credibility
Everything I teach is backed by research from leading trauma experts and neuroscientists. - Accessible Language
Complex concepts made simple. You don't need a PhD to understand your nervous system. - Embodied Practice
Real tools and techniques you can use right now to regulate your system and release stored trauma. - Unapologetic Truth
No toxic positivity here. We face the hard stuff with compassion AND honesty.
