Wild Counseling

You may know the spiral well - replaying interactions in your mind, analyzing every word, trying to stay composed while everything inside you feels anything but steady. You might wonder if you’re too much, not enough, or somehow broken. Maybe your relationships feel like walking a tightrope between wanting closeness and fearing what might happen if you let your guard down.

In relationships (partners, friends, family, new connections) pain often shows up as distance, disconnection, or a sense that you’re speaking different languages. You might find yourself stuck in familiar patterns, unsure how to break the cycle, even when you desperately want something different.

And just because others think you should “let it go” or “move on” doesn’t mean your nervous system agrees. Trauma doesn’t respond to logic. It lives in the body, in patterns of protection and survival that were once necessary, even if they no longer serve you now.

In our work together, you don’t have to minimize, explain away, or hold everything together. This is a space where your full, unfiltered self is welcome - messy, uncertain, grieving, in-progress - and still deeply worthy of care. We’ll slow down, get curious, and gently untangle the patterns that keep you feeling unseen, misunderstood, or disconnected.

This isn’t about quick fixes or pretending everything’s fine. It’s about creating a steadier, safer relationship with yourself so that connection, both with others and within your own inner world, becomes less threatening and more possible.

You get to breathe here.
