Developmental Trauma
When early relationships were unreliable or unsafe, your nervous system learned to adapt. That adaptation often lingers long after. Here, we make space for what wasn’t met, with slowness, curiosity, and relational depth. Healing happens not through fixing, but through being met differently.
My rates are:
$880 for a 90 min session
$550 for a 60 min session
Developmental Trauma Therapy
When the early bonds that shaped you were fractured or inconsistent, their effects can echo far into adulthood. You might find yourself caught in patterns of anxiety, disconnection, hyper-independence, or people-pleasing, without always knowing why. These experiences may trace back to early environments where your needs weren’t consistently met, and where safety, care, or attunement weren’t reliable.
At Modern Holistic Psychiatry, we understand developmental trauma not as a flaw, but as an adaptive response to environments that asked too much or gave too little. Whether you have a history of childhood neglect, emotional misattunement, or early relational rupture, this is a space where those stories are taken seriously. Together, we can explore how those early patterns shaped your nervous system, your sense of self, and your way of being in relationship.
Thoughtful, Trauma-Informed Therapy for Complex Roots
Developmental trauma disorder isn’t always formally diagnosed, but its effects often show up in adulthood, as anxiety, emotional reactivity, chronic shame, or difficulty in relationships. Our work starts by building safety, and by honouring the ways your system adapted to survive.
This isn’t about rushing to “fix” anything. We might use talk therapy, somatic techniques, or relational work to help bring curiosity to your experience. My approach is grounded in trauma-informed care, with training across psychotherapy, integrative psychiatry, and somatic practice. Whether you’re navigating developmental trauma disorder in adults or looking for a more holistic path to healing, we’ll move gently, together.
