Trauma Therapy in Wheat Ridge and Virtual Across Colorado.

Heal From Within

Is this depression? Anxiety? Am I bipolar? Am I am an addict? Am I a narcissist?  Or is it Trauma?

Does this sound like you?

You’re driven in every area of your life (health, relationships, career, etc.), but when you burnout it feels debilitating. 

You’re seen as a leader and high-functioning, and people can depend on you (sometimes too much).  

You don’t know why sometimes you get caught up in something someone said or did and you can’t seem to let it go.  

You find yourself spiraling (hating yourself, hating them, hating everything, hating everyone), arguing abrasively to protect yourself, withdrawing, or claming up.  

The only way to stop this spiral is to work harder, numb out (TV, food, substances), isolate, or distract yourself.  

You feel your heart racing, tense, uneasy, tightness, and/or pressure in your body.  

This leads to feelings of “I’m not good enough,” “I’m unworthy,” “I’m unloveable,” “I’m a burden,” “I’m too sensitive,” “I’m bad,” “I’m a failure,” and/or “I can’t trust anyone.” 

 If you’re not criticizing yourself you're criticizing someone else.  

After an episode like this, you pick up more self-help books but nothing seems to resonate or nothing seems to change. 

You’ve come such a long way in your life. You strive to be your best self, but these episodes seem to be getting in the way of

    •  You surround yourself by people who disrespect you.

    • Give too much then become resentful.

    • Establish poor or no boundaries.

    • Rely too heavily on your relationships for your own happiness.

    • You can’t find the drive or motivation to take care of yourself.

      You feel not good enough no matter what you do so it feels like there’s no point.

    • Seek validation as a way of knowing your self-worth.

    • Constantly question yourself.

IMAGINE IF YOU…

  • Didn’t have an urge to escape life through things that aren’t good for you (alcohol, drugs, food, etc).

  • Moved from being a victim to a survivor.

  • Felt secure in yourself and showed up this way in all areas of your life.

  • Felt neutral about things that would normally get a big reaction out of you.

  • Loved yourself and felt good enough.

I WANT YOU TO BELIEVE:

YOU DESERVE AN IDENTITY THAT REPRESENTS YOU NOT YOUR PAST

You are not the worst thing that has happened to you. Trauma may have shaped your story, but it does not define your worth. The belief that you're "not good enough" was never yours to carry—it was placed there by pain, by experiences that told you love had to be earned, or that safety was conditional.

But you deserve more. You deserve to see yourself beyond survival, beyond the past. Healing isn’t about forgetting—it’s about reclaiming who you are beneath the weight of what you’ve been through.

I’m here to help you rewrite the narrative.
