Erin Perko
Clinical Social Worker/Therapist - LISW-S
Trauma leaves us feeling broken, damaged, and disconnected from ourselves and others. You may be tired of feeling triggered in everyday situations, distanced from friends who can’t understand, or guilt and shame over what happened to you. You may not even remember a time you didn’t feel like this. Either way, one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to nurture your relationships without your past getting in the way. You’re ready to wake up each morning without dread. Most of all, you’re ready to love yourself again & to face your future with a sense of hope.
Clients come to me looking for someone who really listens and gets them on a deeper level, because therapy should be a place where you feel safe & validated. Sessions are about more than just talking; we incorporate both your mind & body so you can experience wholeness again. And we always go at your pace, never pushing to places you don’t feel ready to be.
It may feel impossible now, but healing from trauma is not only possible but likely in the context of an supportive & safe relationship. Therapy can be that space for you, where your emotional safety is prioritized and you can share your story, maybe even for the first time. If you’re feeling ready to take that first step, I’d be honored to walk beside you.
