Your pain is real. Your healing is possible.
Trauma, Anxiety & Mind-Body Therapy for Sensitive, Thoughtful Adults in Texas
Does any of this sound familiar?
You wake up already bracing for the symptoms—whether it’s pain, bloating, fatigue, or some strange new sensation that no one seems to have answers for. You go about your day with a smile, all while your body screams for relief. You cancel plans or avoid intimacy (again), not because you want to — but because your body makes the decisions now.
You’ve done everything right—physical therapy, doctor visits, food changes, supplements, yoga, meditation—but you feel stuck.
And still, your body hasn’t yet received the message that it’s safe.
Underneath it all, that voice kicks in:
“Why can’t I fix this? What am I missing? Is this just my life now?”
And you’re exhausted. But you still want to believe healing is possible. You still want more than symptom management.
You want your life back—your energy, your relationships, your sense of wholeness.
Your symptoms make sense.
This isn’t a failure of effort or care—
it’s a nervous system operating in survival mode.
Imagine what could be different.
What if, instead of bracing for the worst each morning, you felt in tune with your body, and confident in how to care for it?
What if flare days didn’t send you spiraling because you had real tools and a steady support system?
What if you could feel truly present with your partner—not worried a flare is coming, not stuck anticipating symptoms before they even arrive?
Imagine reconnecting with joy, pleasure, and yourself, not just surviving your days, but actually living them.
You deserve a life not centered around your symptoms.
Hi, I’m Heather.
I live with endometriosis myself, so I understand how isolating it can feel when your body is a mystery and no one seems to have answers. I know what it’s like to push through for years and still wonder why nothing is changing.
You are more than your illness. And you don’t have to navigate this alone.
What does therapy for pelvic pain look like?
We work gently and collaboratively—no pushing your body or emotions faster than they’re ready
Sessions focus on the relationship between chronic pain, stress, trauma, and the nervous system
Therapy may include EMDR, parts work, and somatic approaches, always tailored to you
This work doesn’t replace medical care
Progress often looks like less overwhelm, better self-trust, and a more stable relationship with your body
What clients say about our work:
While I can’t share specifics (because therapy is deeply personal), here’s the kind of feedback I hear from clients navigating chronic pelvic pain and complex conditions:
I’m so glad I found you—you actually get it.
I actually understand my body now.
I didn’t realize how much my emotions were connected to my pain.
Clients often share that they feel seen, supported, and finally on a path that makes sense, one that doesn’t separate body from mind.
If you’re feeling lost or unsure whether this work can help, you’re not alone.
This isn’t just talk therapy.
We’ll use mind-body approaches like EMDR, parts work, and nervous system regulation to help you process what’s been stored, soothe your symptoms, and finally feel like your body makes sense again.
EMDR helps calm the nervous system and reduce the body’s stress response, which is why it’s increasingly used alongside medical care for chronic pain.
With EMDR, we’re not just talking about pain—we’re helping the brain reprocess experiences that taught the body it wasn’t safe. When those memories lose their charge, the nervous system often stops responding as if the danger is still happening. That can reduce both emotional distress and physical pain.
You can feel steadier, clearer, and supported every step of the way.
You might have concerns like:
“I don’t want to spend more energy on this — I’m already sick of it.”
That makes so much sense. This work isn’t about doing more—it’s about helping your system finally exhale.
“What if this doesn’t work for me?”
That’s a valid question. This work draws from evidence-based approaches like EMDR and nervous system–focused therapy. Many clients notice meaningful shifts over time, including feeling safer in their bodies, less reactive to stress, and in some cases, a reduction in pain. I can’t promise specific outcomes, but this work is designed to support real change rather than just coping.
“I’ve been managing for years. Maybe I should just deal with it.”
You’ve coped and that’s been brave. But you don’t have to just “manage” forever. You deserve more than survival.
Take your time, ask questions, and choose the kind of care that feels aligned to your needs.
This is your healing journey and you get to decide what’s right for you.
A Gentle Note on Fit
Our work may be a good fit for you if…
You’re navigating chronic pelvic pain or related conditions such as endometriosis, vaginismus, PCOS, interstitial cystitis, or hidradenitis suppurativa
You’ve been searching for answers and you’re still living with pain and uncertainty
You may be at different points in your journey: newly diagnosed, still seeking clarity, or years into managing symptoms
You’re open to working collaboratively, and you want support that looks at both the physical experience of pain and the emotional patterns that develop alongside it
You’re not looking for someone to “fix” you —but you are open to exploring new ways of relating to your body and your pain
This may not be the right fit if…
You’re looking for a purely medical or symptom-focused approach, without exploring the emotional or mind–body layers of chronic pain
You’re hoping for therapy that stays primarily conversational or cognitive, without engaging in body-based work (such as parts work or EMDR)
You’re currently needing a higher level of support around safety, crisis, or active addiction—in which case more wraparound care may be a better starting point. I want you to get the support you need. Please refer to my crisis resources for more options.
What could life feel like if you started this journey today?
More clarity. More calm. More control. More joy.
You don’t have to have it all figured out right now. But you can take the first step.
You’re not broken. This doesn’t have to be your forever.
Let’s help you untangle the connection between your symptoms, your stress, and your story, so you can finally feel relief without having to push, pretend, or prove.
Let’s help you understand your symptoms instead of fearing them.
Let’s create a life with joy, rest, and the people you love, not just managing… but living.
