Body-Oriented Trauma Therapy

You don’t need to push through this.

Many people arrive here already working hard — managing, coping, holding things together. The body, meanwhile, may be tired, braced or on high alert. This isn’t because something is wrong with you. It’s because your body is trying to protect you and keep you safe.

In our work together, we slow things down. We listen for what ‘s happening beneath the surface — in sensation, breath and subtle shifts that often go unnoticed. Nothing is forced. We follow the body’s timing, allowing regulation and capacity to build gradually.

Trauma doesn’t only live in memory. It lives in the body’s patterns of protection. When these patterns are met with safety and choice, they can begin to soften. From there, space opens — for steadiness, for connection and for more room inside.

This is tender work — not fragile, but careful, nurturing and deeply respectful of what has been carried.

Hi, I’m Elizabeth. I bring both lived experience and decades of professional practice to this work, along with deep respect for the body’s intelligence and limits. I support people living with complex and developmental trauma, as well as those who feel disconnected, shut down or caught in cycles of activation without knowing exactly why.

Healing isn’t about fixing or pushing toward an outcome. It’s about restoring choice, safety and trust in your own internal signals. This work unfolds slowly and differently for each person.

If you’re curious, we can begin with a conversation.

A complimentary Get Acquainted call offers space to ask questions, share what’s bringing you here and sense whether this feels like a good fit.
