Therapist. Survivor. I get it from the inside.

I've been a trauma and embodiment therapist for well over a decade. I understand what it means to carry something difficult - how it lives in the body, how it shapes the way you move through the world, and how healing rarely follows a straight line.

Then I was diagnosed with breast cancer.

I had the training, the frameworks, the clinical language for what I was going through.

And still - the hardest part wasn't treatment. It was what came after.

When everyone around me exhaled and expected relief, I felt something quieter and more disorienting. Disconnected from my body. Uncertain about the future. Grieving a version of myself I wasn't sure was coming back.

I didn't feel like myself anymore. And I knew better than to pretend that was fine.

That experience changed the direction of my work.

Today I work with breast cancer survivors who are finished with treatment but don't feel finished. Women living with fear of recurrence. Anxiety that doesn't just go away. A body that feels unfamiliar. The quiet loneliness of not recognizing themselves anymore.

I bring 15+ years of clinical experience and the lived understanding of someone who has been there.

Because this part - the part after treatment - is real. And it deserves real support.

You survived. That took everything.

What comes next doesn't have to be figured out alone.
