Do you feel like your childhood experiences are impacting your present? Were you raised by parents who were emotionally unavailable or immature? Are you struggling with feelings of abandonment, low self-worth, or setting healthy boundaries? Do you find it hard to break free from old patterns and make positive changes in your life? If these questions resonate with you, you're not alone. Many adult children of emotionally immature or absent parents face these challenges. The emotional wounds from your past can affect how you see yourself, how you relate to others, and how you manage your own needs and boundaries.
As an EMDR certified therapist and IFS Level One trained, I integrate these powerful methods to bridge your past experiences with present needs, fostering healing, self-compassion, rebuilding self-worth, and cultivating healthier boundaries.
Creating a supportive and understanding environment is a key part of my practice. If you’re ready to explore these issues and start making meaningful changes, reach out today to schedule a free consultation. Let’s work together to help you move forward with confidence, compassion, and clarity.
