Trauma Therapist Cape Coral Florida

EMDR & TRAUMA THERAPY for Women in Cape Coral & Online across Florida

I work with women who’ve always been “the strong one”, the fixer, the overthinker, the one holding it all together while quietly falling apart.  But let’s be real: just surviving isn’t cutting it anymore. It’s time to break those old, exhausting patterns and finally build a life that feels like yours!

TL;DR:   What do I actually do here?

(aka the quick n’ dirty rundown you & your nervous system both want)

You’re not crazy. You’re just carrying more than anyone ever should have. And your nervous system? Yeah, she’s fried. You don’t need another journal prompt. You need real f*cking healing.

I work with hyper-independent, emotionally exhausted, high-functioning women who look “fine” on the outside but feel like they’re unraveling on the inside.
 

We untangle their trauma, rewire their nervous system, so they stop gaslighting themselves by using EMDR, parts work, and somatic therapy that actually gets to the root.
 

I don’t do fluff, endless talk loops, or passive nodding. I do deep nervous system work that helps you actually feel safe in your body again.
 

Whether you’ve got Big T trauma, little t trauma, or can’t remember sh*t but something feels off, I got you!

My therapy style is real, raw, direct, and compassionate AF.

Think less “clinical robot” and more
“trauma-trained ride or die with a therapy license.”

Hi, I’m Jessica!

If you’re ready to heal for real, you’re in the right place. 

I work with women who are tired AF of being "the strong one"


You’ve done the work, read the books, journaling, maybe even years of therapy but the same BS patterns are keeping you stuck. That’s not failure. That’s survival. And it means you need something deeper.

I know opening up to a stranger sounds about as fun as a root canal. And you don’t need another therapist who just nods and asks how that makes you feel. You need someone who’s been through it and won’t flinch when sh*t gets messy.

I don’t just rely on textbooks or clinical training.  I’ve sat in that client seat, exposed and unsure, trying to find words for pain I barely understood. It felt like being naked with my clothes on. Vulnerable AF and uncomfortable as hell. But that work changed everything.

So if your story includes a minefield of trauma, emotional neglect, addiction, and/or chaotic family dynamics, let me be very clear, you are not broken. You’re surviving.

And surviving is exhausting.

If you’re ready to get to the root, and you're looking for a Florida-raised, New England-born trauma therapist who’s direct yet compassionate AF, and totally unbothered by your "hot mess express"... I'm so here for it!

Therapy doesn't have to suck!

And it definitely shouldn’t feel like one more thing to manage.

Trauma isn't just in your head, it’s in your body.

Here’s how Trauma Shows Up in Your Everyday Life:

  • Chronic tension and unexplained exhaustion
     

  • Gut issues or physical discomfort with no medical cause
     

  • Emotional numbness or zoning out
     

  • Constant urge to “escape” even when nothing’s wrong
     

  • Pushing through everything without asking for help because it feels safer to do it all yourself

  • Relationships that feel like walking on eggshells
     

  • Trouble sleeping even when you’re exhausted
     

  • Feeling "on edge" or jumpy for no obvious reason
     

  • Over-apologizing or shrinking yourself to avoid conflict
     

  • Struggling to make decisions because you're afraid of getting it wrong

You’re Done Pretending "You’re Fine".

 You’re over all of it!  The spinning in circles. The constant overthinking. The emotional exhaustion.  You don’t need more surface-level talk therapy. You need trauma healing that actually works. 

The Real-Life Sh*t I Help Over-Achieving Women Heal

Relationship struggles

Relationship Wounds & Trauma:

If you find yourself dating the same person with a different face or stuck in a loop of WTF relationship moments, you’re not alone. You’ve been downplaying your trauma because someone else had it worse. But your story matters.

Low Self-Esteem & Imposter Syndrome: 

You’ve been overachieving since childhood because productivity felt like the only way to prove your worth. Now you’re burnt out and still questioning whether you’re good enough.

complex PTSD and related trauma

Complex PTSD & Attachment Trauma:

Your childhood was a mess. You became the parent too early and never got to be a kid. Now, you micromanage everything to avoid chaos. You’re not controlling. You’re scared. And that makes sense.

Break Free of the BS Holding You Back

What Is Trauma-Informed

Therapy and Why It Matters

Trauma-informed therapy means I don’t treat you like you’re broken, dramatic, or not trying hard enough. Your reactions, like shutting down, overthinking, people-pleasing, or staying too busy to feel, aren’t flaws or personality traits.

 

They’re survival skills your nervous system created to keep you safe.

 

This kind of therapy meets you where you are, works with your nervous system (not against it), and creates the emotional safety you need to finally release all that shit you’ve been carrying for way too long.

The Goal Isn’t Just  Survival.
It’s Freedom!

Freedom to stop white-knuckling your way through the week.
Freedom to stop second-guessing your worth.
Freedom to feel grounded, clear, and in the driver seat of your own life.

That’s what this work is really about, helping you live life on your own damn terms.

Clients often tell me they feel more seen, more challenged, and more supported than they ever have in past therapy. and that I "just get it" when it comes to how life and trauma can really jack up out mental health.  This isn’t slow-motion, polite healing, this is where they stopped circling their pain and started moving through it.

 

I am beyond honored to walk that path with them and honored you are here now.

 FAQs-Quick Answers for Your “WTF Do I Do?” Moments

  • I’m not currently accepting clients for weekly or biweekly sessions. I am ONLY offering EMDR Intensives at this time. You can find out more information here on how we can work together in an intensive.

  • I specialize in trauma-focused therapy using EMDR, inner child work, parts work, and nervous system healing. My clients are mostly hyper-independent, burnt-out women who’ve carried everything for everyone else far too long and are finally ready to drop the damn emotional backpack.

  • No therapy should be just sitting on a couch and venting but it definitely isn’t EMDR. EMDR is a powerful brain-based approach that helps you process and release trauma at the root level. Think of it like a deep-clean for your nervous system, not just a surface wipe-down. Regular talk therapy is helpful, but if you feel like you’ve talked your trauma to death and still feel stuck, EMDR might be your next step

  • If you’re hyper-independent, emotionally exhausted, and secretly wondering if you’re too broken to be helped…Hi, I see you! I work best with women who are ready to dig deep, drop the perfection mask, and do the messy but life-changing work. If you want someone soft-spoken and sugarcoated, I’m probably not your chick. But if you want honest, real, and wildly compassionate support, we’ll most likely vibe just fine!

  • Nope. I only work with adults (18+) one-on-one. I stay in my lane and do what I do best: helping women untangle trauma, drop their hyper-independence armor, and rebuild from the inside out.

  • I’m based in Cape Coral, Florida and offer both in-person and virtual therapy sessions. Regardless of session type you must be located in Florida at time of your session.

    For EMDR Intensives, I also offer in-person sessions for those traveling in.

  • I am not currently accepting weekly or bi-weekly clients.
