Healing isn't always pretty, but its so worth it!

Sandy came to see me after a lifetime of silent suffering.

She had been sexually abused from the age of four and had never spoken a word of it.

She grew up keeping her trauma neatly folded away inside, surviving, functioning, and even raising a family.

But she had never once felt safe in her body.

When she arrived at the Purple House, her nervous system was tightly braced, as if she had been holding her breath for forty years.

During our first session something shifted.
Trauma began to defrost from her body, the issues were releasing from her tissues and her whole body was pouring with sweat.

The she began sobbing, deep primal sobs that shook her body.

Her face was wet with tears.

The she was laughing and crying at the same time, releasing layers of stored pain that had been locked in her cells for decades.

And when the storm passed, she looked at me and said: “I’ve never felt this light in my life.”

That moment marked the beginning of her true healing.
