Trauma-Informed HealingEmotional Regulation & Nervous System Support
Emotional reactivity, overwhelm, numbness, or difficulty settling are not character flaws. They are often nervous system responses shaped by stress, trauma, or prolonged strain. Therapy provides a steady, structured space to restore safety and regulation.
Recognizing the SignsWhen your system feels on edge or shut down
Heightened reactivity, shutdown, or persistent tension are often signs of a nervous system under strain. Therapy focuses on restoring regulation and building internal stability.
Intense emotional reactions
Anger, anxiety, or tears feel disproportionate or hard to control.
Numbness or shutdown
You feel disconnected from emotions, others, or yourself.
Constant alertness
You struggle to relax, switch off, or feel safe in your body.
Difficulty recovering from stress
Small triggers take a long time to settle.
