A Place for Women Who Give So Many F*cks They Forget About Themselves
It's time to take up space, stop people-pleasing, and choose yourself for once.

F*ck doing everything alone.
You deserve a system that feels safe.

feel stuck even when life looks stable
are the one who holds everything together
carry unresolved childhood trauma
experience anxiety, shutdown, or overwhelm
have done therapy before but still feel unresolved
grew up with emotional neglect or instability
notice repeating relationship patterns
want to focus deeply on healing rather than stretching therapy out for years
Trauma Therapy That Gets to the Root
Many high functioning women are used to solving problems, managing stress, and pushing through difficult situations. Over time those survival strategies can become deeply wired patterns in the nervous system.
Trauma therapy focuses on processing the underlying experiences that created those patterns in the first place.
This work often includes:
EMDR to help the brain reprocess unresolved memories
healing attachment wounds from early relationships
working with inner child parts that learned survival roles
understanding how the nervous system responds to stress and threat
The goal is not just coping better, but helping the nervous system finally move out of survival mode.
Hi, I’m Jessica!
Trauma therapist. EMDR certified. Former (ish) hyper-independent fixer.
You’ve done the work. Read the books, journaled, maybe even spent years in therapy, and the same patterns are still running the show.
That’s not failure. That’s survival.
Opening up to a stranger sounds about as fun as a root canal, I get it! You don’t need another therapist who just nods and hands you coping skills. You need someone who won’t flinch when things get messy and actually understands what it’s like to sit in that client chair.
I’ve been there. Ugly crying, unraveling old stories, rebuilding from the ground up. Vulnerable AF and uncomfortable as hell. And it changed everything.
If your story includes trauma, emotional neglect, addiction, or chaotic family dynamics, hear me clearly, you are not broken. You’re surviving.
My therapy style is real, direct, and compassionate AF. Think less “clinical robot” and more “trauma-trained ride-or-die with a therapy license.”
If you’re ready to get to the root messy and all, I’m here for that!
Therapy doesn't have to suck!
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
Trauma isn't just in your head, it’s in your body.
Here’s how Trauma Shows Up in Your Everyday Life:
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 Hyper Independent Women Heal
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 may be downplaying your trauma because someone else had it worse. This isn’t the trauma olympics, your story matters too.
Relationship Wounds & Trauma:
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 & 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.

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 your 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.
Stop Bracing for Impact. Start Reprocessing.
I’m grateful you’re even considering letting me walk with you through this wild AF healing work.
I am currently NOT accepting weekly or bi-weekly clients. At this time, I’m ONLY accepting new clients for EMDR Therapy Intensives. These are deep, focused sessions for faster breakthroughs and real movement.
If an intensive isn’t the right fit, I totally get it. Check out My Therapists Peeps in SWFL or Psychology Today, Headway, Alma, Grow Therapy for other amazing providers. Also Open Path is a great resource for finding therapists who offer sliding scale pricing which can make ongoing therapy more affordable.
Wherever you start, just know: You deserve support. You deserve healing. You deserve to feel like YOU again.

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.
