Sarah could barely function. It had been years since that traumatic assault, and yet she still felt shaken to her core. Even simple things like leaving the house or going to work felt like oppressive obstacles. Flashbacks of the attack intruded on her life and made it impossible to show up for her friends, family, or herself. She felt like a prisoner in her own body. Something had to change.
Lauren felt like she was only lovable if she was useful. She’d always been an overachiever. From a young age, she learned that the best way to get attention was to help someone. It was only by completing chores or earning accomplishments that her parents showed any affection. Now, as an adult, she still feels the need to take care of everyone else. It’s exhausting, but she can’t ask for help.
Megan felt invisible. No matter how much praise she received from others, she always qualified it with, “If they really knew me, they wouldn’t like me.” It was as though she was harboring some awful secret, but she couldn’t quite pinpoint what it was. She kept getting passed over for promotions at work and felt unappreciated at home. She didn’t feel worthy of complaining or of a better life.

Hi, I’m Elmelia
It’s not at all uncommon to find that the coping skills we learned early in life to help us cope with trauma or neglect become the very things holding us back from how we want to live.
I know it’s hard to imagine a future where you feel safe and secure in yourself, regardless of outside influence, but I can tell you from experience that it is possible.
You deserve to live free from critical and intrusive voices, both internal and external. It’s time to make a change and reclaim your power.
This journey back to you won’t always be easy, but I promise it is worthwhile.

Sarah came to me looking for a way to reprocess her traumatic memories. Using EMDR techniques, we were successful in removing the triggers from the memory of her assault while also identifying the other negative self-beliefs that had been holding her back. Now, she feels empowered to work through them.
Jessica called me, and through our work, she soon realized that her mother was a narcissist. She finally felt heard and validated speaking about her abuse. Together, we traced how her old coping skills contributed to her current burnout. Now, she’s learning to interact with the world on her own terms.
Lauren got in touch and set about doing the difficult work of welcoming her inner child while beginning to repair the neglect she had experienced all those years before. Now, she’s learned to create and maintain healthy boundaries since her self-worth is no longer contingent on saying “yes.”
Megan reached out and quickly began to understand her true self underneath all the labels the world had tacked onto her. She soon realized the stronger her sense of self grew, the less resentful she was of others. Now, she is able to show up in all her authentic glory and on her own terms.
