Somatic Therapy for Women Healing from Trauma, Anxiety & Burnout
Private-pay telehealth therapy for women throughout Minnesota and North Dakota.
You don't have to be in crisis to benefit from therapy.
Many of the women I work with have spent years carrying more than anyone realized—living with trauma, PTSD, complex trauma, ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, burnout, chronic stress, or the lasting effects of always having to be strong.
Therapy offers a place to slow down, understand your nervous system, reconnect with yourself, and begin creating lasting change at a pace that feels safe.
Using The Northwoods Approach, we'll gently explore the connection between your body, emotions, relationships, and life experiences while building greater regulation, resilience, and self-trust.
Therapy May Be Helpful If You...
Feel like you've been in survival mode for far too long.
Are healing from trauma, PTSD, or complex trauma.
Live with anxiety, depression, chronic stress, or burnout.
Are an ADHD or autistic woman navigating a world that often feels overwhelming.
Find yourself people-pleasing, overthinking, staying constantly busy, or struggling to rest.
Are recovering from emotional abuse, difficult relationships, or painful life experiences.
Are navigating grief, chronic illness, chronic pain, or a major life transition.
Feel disconnected from yourself, your body, or the life you want to create.
You don't have to be in crisis to benefit from therapy.
Whether you're seeking relief from long-standing patterns or simply longing to feel more grounded, therapy can offer a space to slow down, understand your nervous system, and reconnect with yourself.
What You Can Expect in Therapy
Therapy is not about having all the answers before you begin.
It's about having a space where you can slow down, feel supported, and explore your experiences with curiosity rather than judgment.
At Northwoods Velvære Studio, therapy moves at a pace that feels safe for your nervous system. There is no expectation to tell your whole story during your first session or to revisit painful experiences before you're ready. Together, we'll build a foundation of safety and trust while helping you better understand the patterns that have shaped your life.
As therapy unfolds, you'll develop a deeper understanding of your nervous system, strengthen your connection with your body, and begin creating new patterns that support greater resilience, self-trust, and lasting change.
Every woman's story is different. Your therapy will be tailored to your unique experiences, strengths, goals, and the pace that feels right for you.
Depending on your goals, therapy may include:
Somatic therapy and nervous system regulation
Trauma-informed care
Inner child work
Parts-informed therapy
Shadow work grounded in Jungian psychology
Mindfulness and self-compassion practices
Psychoeducation about trauma, attachment, and the nervous system
Gentle exploration of patterns, relationships, identity, and personal growth
There is no "right way" to heal.
We'll begin where you are and work together toward creating a life that feels more grounded, connected, and authentically your own.
Ready to Begin?
Taking the first step can feel vulnerable, and you don't have to have everything figured out before reaching out.
Whether you're healing from trauma, navigating anxiety, burnout, ADHD, autism, chronic stress, or simply looking for a different way forward, therapy offers a place to feel supported, understood, and gently challenged toward lasting change.
If you're ready to begin—or even if you're just wondering whether we're a good fit—I'd be honored to walk alongside you.
