Brainspotting and Sacred Becoming: A Journey Back to Wholeness
As a sensitive cycle breaker, you’ve probably learned to function in high-alert mode—always scanning, always doing, always bracing.

Coming Home to Yourself: Inner Child Healing, Somatic Therapy & IFS-Informed Care for Sensitive Cycle Breakers
When we’ve lived through trauma or difficult experiences—especially attachment wounds or emotional neglect—parts of us adapt in brilliant ways. They become perfectionists, people-pleasers, caretakers, or critics. These aren’t flaws. They’re protectors. They’ve kept you safe.

The Ones Who Choose to Heal: What It Means to Be a Cycle Breaker in a World That Resists Change
Some people are born into patterns that are meant to end with them. Maybe you are one of them.

The inherited beliefs that tell you who you are supposed to be.
You’re Not Bad at Boundaries: You Were Just Taught to Feel Guilty
Because the hard part isn’t setting boundaries—it’s building up the courage to speak one's truth, and then navigating what happens afterward. It’s the panic and shame (sometimes rage) that arises when others react to boundaries poorly. It’s the deep-seated belief that others' emotional responses mean they have done something wrong.
