Feeling grief, disconnection, sadness? Do you feel like you don’t know who you are anymore? Do you show up for others, but do not know how to meet your needs? The grief of losing your sense of self results from going through loss and trauma. One’s identity is comprised of their experiences, relationships, and beliefs/values. When an interruption or loss occurs in any of these areas, it shakes up one’s sense of self, self worth/confidence, and access to emotions of joy, calm, and love. I can support you in re-establishing a connection to self through self-discovery alongside processing the experiences of grief and trauma.

I offer a holistic model to wellness (mind, body, and spirit), supporting clients experiencing grief, emotional distress, low self-esteem and complex trauma. Loss of self can occur through narcissistic abuse, traumatic death, separation, health loss and more. To support reconnection and change, I apply an integrative and creative model of support.

The integrative model includes HeartMath, psychodynamic, Jungian, transpersonal, therapeutic arts, Logotherapy & Existential Analysis, parts work, and Brainspotting. We can foster your inner strength and resilience to increase your capacity to manage life challenges. To learn more, let’s connect for a 30 minute free consultation irishoakwellness.janeapp.com.

I have over five years of experience in working with grieving clients, including traumatic deaths. I understand how trauma impacts a person's sense of safety resulting in challenges with trust, self-confidence, addiction, anxiety, and depression. Long-term therapy is an investment in one's wellbeing to help build a strong foundation for healing upon which continuous personal growth occurs.
