Your Bay Area Trauma Therapist

I’m Corinne, your new therapist

I specialize in supporting highly sensitive women and those who are experiencing high stress, immense pressure, and profound exhaustion. Before my life as a therapist, I was a backpacking guide by day and wilderness EMT by night.  It was in this grind that my passion for mental health, system wellness, and some of my superpowers as a budding therapist were born.

When I’m not in the office, I’m skiing, hiking, climbing, doing pilates (pilating??), and exploring the Santa Cruz area with my family.

Helping People Energizes Me

Being a therapist is incredibly invigorating. It's like carving s-turns in fresh powder on a perfect ski day or finding flow in a challenging Pilates sequence. I love guiding people towards their internal wisdom and witnessing them achieve more fulfilling lives—it's a bit like the "aha!" moment when a new language finally clicks and you can express yourself more freely.

My Journey To Becoming A Therapist

I'm no different from the clients I see.  After years of "doing all the right things" in talk therapy—analyzing dysfunctional family dynamics, navigating life with an alcoholic parent, processing the devastation of losing my brother to addiction, and mastering all the skills—my body started to scream at me. I was coping, but I wasn't thriving.

I was overcome with:

Perfectionism, Procrastination, and Panic

Vertigo

Spontaneous Anaphylactic Reactions

Chronic illness

All a result of chronic stress.

Yeah, scary stuff. As a therapist, I knew I had to find another way for my nervous system. Here enters: somatic therapy. What I learned was that my problems didn't magically disappear, but my relationship with my body and mind shifted powerfully. Finally, I felt held, present, and inspired.
