Coming Home to Yourself: Inner Child Healing, Somatic Therapy & IFS-Informed Care for Sensitive Cycle Breakers
You’ve always felt deeply.
Deep emotion. Intuitive energy. Pressure to hold it all together so as not to rock the boat.
And maybe, for a long time, you believed you had to—perhaps because you weren’t being held in the ways you needed. But something in you is shifting. You’re ready to stop surviving and start softening. You’re ready to heal the old stories and patterns you never agreed to carry.
This work is for the sensitive ones, the cycle breakers, the deep feelers with big hearts and tired nervous systems. The ones who are done pretending they're fine when their body says otherwise.
Inner Child Work Rooted in IFS-Informed, Somatic Care
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.
IFS-informed therapy gives us a way to connect with these parts. Many of them are younger—you might think of them as inner children—still carrying fear, grief, or the belief that love has to be earned.
We don’t force them to “get over it.” We get curious. We listen. We build trust.
Through this work, you begin to relate to yourself with compassion instead of control. And that changes everything.
We get to co-create a reparative experience for you and your inner child to get to feel free to be accepted as your authentic self, and where you can gather up and reclaim younger parts of you that feel stuck in painful points in time.
The power of safe relational space is incredibly healing.

The Body Remembers—But It Also Knows How to Heal
Trauma isn't just a story in your mind. It’s a feeling in your body. That’s why somatic therapy is woven through everything we do.
You’ll learn how to track what’s happening inside—without getting overwhelmed. We’ll work gently with breath, sensation, movement, and nervous system awareness to help your body feel safe enough to unfold.
This isn’t about “fixing” you. It’s about returning to the wisdom that’s already there, under the fear.
This Work Is For You If...
You’re a deep feeler who’s been stuck in survival mode for way too long
You’ve tried talk therapy—but your body still flinches, freezes, or fawns, or you still feel shame after therapy
You’re working to break cycles of trauma, scarcity, or emotional disconnection
You’re craving a healing space that’s spiritual, grounded, intuitive, and real
You want to feel safe inside yourself—not just functional, but free
Healing Isn’t a Straight Line—It’s a Sacred Spiral
In our work together, there’s no pressure to be perfect. All parts of you are welcome here. Even the ones who still brace for impact. Even the ones who don’t trust healing yet.
We move at the pace of your nervous system. We honor your boundaries. We co-create safety, moment by moment.
And yes, there’s room for magic here, too. For the part of you that knows healing is possible. For the sparks of intuition, synchronicity, and soul that can show up when we tend to the roots.
Come as you are. Bring your parts, your stories, your longings. Let’s begin the journey back to wholeness, together.
